Mesenchymal stem cells are not regenerating knee cartilage by turning into new cartilage cells themselves in real world treatments.
According to Dr. Julien Freitag, CEO and Chief Medical Officer of Magellan Stem Cells, mesenchymal stem cells work by signalling the cartilage cells already in your knee to start producing more cartilage, not by becoming cartilage themselves.
Dr. Freitag explains what mesenchymal stem cells are really doing inside the knee joint, why the regeneration that does happen comes from your own cells rebuilding, and what this means for what patients should realistically expect from treatment. Watch the full explanation above.
