Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Othobiologics therapy is nowadays common and recognizable. It provides faster and better healing for musculoskeletal lesions and conditions.
This Special Issue is devoted mainly to presenting new trends in blood derivatives and cell concentrates, applied to lesions of muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, meniscus, and cartilage, as well as osteoarthritis. As is well-known, a multidisciplinary team approach is essential for the better understanding of this treatment. We would like to present the whole spectrum of orthobiologics therapy in clinical applications, ranging from tendinopathies through nonunions to articular degenerative processes. Moreover, we enhance present studies on future solutions, such as pluripotent stem cells, gene therapy, and the stimulation of intrinsic stromal cell niches.
For this Special Issue, titled “New Insights into Orthobiologics Therapy”, we would like to invite authors to submit their original papers, review articles, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses.
