Think of transplanting stem cells like sending an athlete onto the field—without
training, they'll struggle. Ai et al. created a "warm-up" system that mechanically pre-trains
MSCs for the tough environment of the knee!

Great summary of our latest work - a real Team Science effort! 👥 🐭
#New in #OAC ! The sphingolipid sphingomyelin 34:1 is upregulated in the synovial fluid of those with OA. Work from @phar.cam.ac.uk shows that SM34:1 causes inflammatory pain in mice, inducing neuronal hyperexcitability.

#New this month in #OAC . Translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO) plays an important role in #OA occurrence and development. Emapunil targeting TSPO improves OA by modulating #macrophage polarization and #inflammation through the CD14/TLR4/LY96 pathway.
