Description: La artritis y las lesiones pueden destrozar las articulaciones de millones de personas, pero pocas obtienen el mejor remedio: tejido biológico real. Kevin Stone presenta un tratamiento que emplea un novedoso uso de tejido animal, para así acabar con los altos costos y la escasez de donantes de órganos para transplantes.

Kevin Stone: El bio-futuro del reemplazo de articulaciones.

Most joint replacements rely on artificial parts or scarce human tissue, but new breakthroughs use animal tissues to restore function. Half of people who live long lives will develop arthritis, often after years of sports or injury. By stripping donor animal tissues of immune triggers and loading them with a patient's stem cells, doctors can now regrow cartilage and ligaments. This approach promises cheaper, more natural, and widely available solutions for millions suffering from joint pain.
