Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether transplantation of aggregates of autologous synovial MSCs promoted meniscal regeneration in aged primates. After the anterior halves of the medial menisci in both knees were removed, an average of 14 aggregates consisting of 250,000 synovial MSCs were transplanted onto the meniscus defect. No aggregates were transplanted to the opposite knee for the control. Meniscus and articular cartilage were analyzed macroscopically and histologically at 8 (n=3) and 16 weeks (n=4). The medial meniscus was larger and the histological score for the regenerated meniscus was better in the MSC group than in the control group in each primate at 8 and 16 weeks. Mankin’s score for the medial femoral condyle cartilage was better in the MSC group than in the control group in all primates at 16 weeks. Transplantation of aggregates of autologous synovial MSCs promoted meniscus regeneration and delayed progression of degeneration of articular cartilage in aged primates.
