A new treatment that blocks an aging-related protein restored lost cartilage in old mice and helped prevent arthritis after knee injuries. Human cartilage samples showed similar signs of regeneration, raising hopes for a future drug that could repair joints instead of replacing them.

    Arthritis causes bone damage too. So. Idk how it’s going to regrow bone joints by repairing cartilage but I’m not a medical doctor.

    I realize bone can repair itself but there are limits.
