Bone morphogenetic proteins for articular cartilage regeneration.

Osteoarthritis and cartilage·2018

New biological approaches combining cell therapy, gene therapy (GT), and tissue engineering (TE) offer innovative musculoskeletal treatments. Surgeons can now foster tissue regeneration, advancing orthopaedic care for bone, joint, and muscle disorders.

Area of Science:

  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Biotechnology

Background:

  • Musculoskeletal disorders pose significant challenges to patient mobility and quality of life.
  • Traditional treatments often involve excision and reconstruction, with limitations in restoring full function.
  • Emerging biological approaches offer promising alternatives for tissue repair and regeneration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the principles and current advances in cell and gene therapy (GT) and tissue engineering (TE) for musculoskeletal applications.
  • To update orthopaedic surgeons on the terminology, concepts, and research in this rapidly developing field.
  • To highlight the potential of GT and TE in treating bone, articular, and skeletal muscle conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies and advancements in GT and TE for musculoskeletal regeneration.

  • Synthesis of information on cell biology, polymer chemistry, and surgical techniques.
  • Focus on applications for bone healing, articular disorders, and skeletal muscle injuries.

    • Main Results:

    • GT and TE, combined with cell-based strategies, are creating novel treatment paradigms.
    • These approaches enable surgeons to act as 'surgical gardeners,' cultivating regenerative microenvironments.
    • Exploration of GT and TE applications for bone, cartilage, and muscle regeneration is ongoing.

    Conclusions:

    • Cell and gene therapy, alongside tissue engineering, represent a paradigm shift in musculoskeletal treatment.
    • Understanding these biological approaches is crucial for orthopaedic surgeons to fully utilize regenerative medicine.
    • Future orthopaedic practice may involve creating regenerative environments rather than solely relying on excision and reconstruction.
