ABSTRACT
Osteoarthritis (OA) is slow progressive disease with destruction of articular cartilage and hypertrophy of subchondral bone.The elderly are the most common patients,usually treated by joint surgery.OA patients often undergo total joint replacement.The risk andhigh cost of joint replacement prompt researchers to use multi-potential mesenchymal stem cells to repair full-thickness articular cartilage.Mesenchyma Stem Cells (MSCs) are stromal cells that can differentiate into bone,fat and chondrocytes.MSCs exist in bone marrow and fat.Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BMSCs) can also be found in synovial joints.MSCs affect the progress of OA.MSCs can be isolated and proliferated in vitro and applied in clinical trials.Current clinical trials are still at an early stage.The primary purpose is to evaluate the safety,feasibility and effectiveness.This article reviews recent progress in clinical trials of MSCs repair of OA.
