Harnessing extracellular vesicles to direct endochondral repair of large bone defects.

Bone & joint research

Ferreira E, Porter RM.
PMID: 29922444
Bone Joint Res. 2018 May 05;7(4):263-273. doi: 10.1302/2046-3758.74.BJR-2018-0006. eCollection 2018 Apr.

Large bone defects remain a tremendous clinical challenge. There is growing evidence in support of treatment strategies that direct defect repair through an endochondral route, involving a cartilage intermediate. While culture-expanded stem/progenitor cells are being evaluated for this purpose,...
