Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Developing superior regenerative medicine technology for meniscal injuries and cartilage degeneration associated with osteoarthritis of the knee is awaited for a vast scale of patients estimated to be about 8.5 million people in Japan. In this project, with regard to the phenomena that occur in the natural regeneration process of rodents, it was identified that the invasion of blood vessels is an important factor, the characteristics of each were analyzed, and a paper is currently in preparation. Based on these findings, purified cells were analyzed for each layer of synovial tissue. Cells with high capacity were identified and reported in an international journal. In addition, we also study the preservation technique required when administering cells contributing to regeneration, report it as a paper to an international journal, and are patent-pending.
