Can Cell Therapy Regrow Cartilage?
21st February 2022
Cartilage is a connective tissue that forms a protective cushion at the ends of our bones. It consists of millions of cartilage cells called chondrocytes responsible for an easy and frictionless motion of the joint.
If chondrocytes wear down or get damaged/injured, bones start to rub against each other leading to severe pain and extreme joint stiffness. Further degeneration/degradation leads to osteoarthritis. It is most commonly diagnosed in the knees, hips, spine, and hands. In osteoarthritis, day-to-day activities such as walking, bending, squatting become challenging. If the condition gets severe, it can also result in disability. Hence, it is crucial to repair the damaged cells for smooth functioning of the joint.
Cartilage cell therapy works on solving the problem of cartilage defects effectively by replacing the damaged cells with new and healthy cells. The addition of healthy chondrocytes to the damaged tissue area leads to the formation of new cartilage without any side effects.
Regrow Biosciences Pvt. Ltd. is a regenerative cell therapy company that has developed a treatment for cartilage defects using cartilage cell therapy (CARTIGROW®). CARTIGROW® is considered a safe treatment option and is approved by Indian FDA. The treatment involves isolating healthy chondrocytes and implanting the cells into the affected joint. Cell therapy for cartilage repair eliminates the need for other treatment procedures and is considered an effective cure for cartilage defects. There are no risks associated with the treatment as the procedure involves using patients’ own cells.
Cartilage cell therapy (CARTIGROW®) is covered under cashless and reimbursement schemes for all major Private/ Government and State Health Insurance Schemes.
