Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method, a composition and use thereof for inducing regeneration of damaged cartilage. Specifically, the invention relates to a method, a composition and use thereof for inducing regeneration of damaged cartilage by applying hyaluronic acid to damaged area of cartilage after microfracture formation.
  • Hunziker 2002 Prakash et al. 2002. Since articular cartilage has neither vascular supply nor easy access to stem cells, repair is often unsuccessful. Partial thickness defects cannot heal spontaneously because stem cells found in the bone marrow cannot be accessed (Buckwalter 1998). Full thickness defects, however, do have access to these cells and thus can heal spontaneously (Wei et al. 1997). However, the regenerated cartilage is fibrocartilage rather than hyaline cartilage (Frisbie et al. 2003) and, being mechanically weaker than hyaline cartilage, it gradually degenerates over time (Shapiro et al. 1993).
  • Microfracture used to treat articular cartilage injuries can facilitate the intrinsic healing response of stem or progenitor cells recruited by subchondral penetration to the marrow and can stimulate cartilage regeneration. Multiple drilling, arthroplasty, microfracture surgery, or the like may be used in this method. However, microfracture has been shown to result in regeneration of fibrocartilage, with inferior mechanical properties, rather than the desired hyaline cartilage. Microfracture has been failed to regenerate cartilage that maintains its functional integrity of articular cartilage.
  • Cartilage transplantation has limitations. Various problems result at the area where the graft has been provided and the method cannot be used when the chondral lesion is too large. Furthermore, margins are generated between the original tissues and healed regions.
  • the present inventors found that application of hyaluronic acid to the area including a microfractured site for treating damaged cartilage resulted in regeneration of hyaline-like cartilage rather than fibrocartilage by the stem or progenitor cells recruited by subchondral penetration to the marrow.
  • the present invention provides a method for inducing regeneration of cartilage in a mammal comprising:
  • Hyaluronic acid is a type of complex polysaccharide composed of N-acetyl glucosamine and glucuronic acid.
  • the present invention provides the present method for inducing regeneration of cartilage is provided, wherein the hyaluronic acid being in a cross-linked form or the carboxyl group or alcohol group of the hyaluronic acid being chemically modified.
  • the present invention provides the present method for inducing regeneration of cartilage, wherein bone marrow-derived stem cells flowing over the damaged area of cartilage as a result of the formation of microfracture(s).
  • the present method for inducing regeneration of cartilage one forms one or more microfractures and confirms that bone marrow- derived stem cells flow over the damaged area of cartilage before applying biomaterial containing hyaluronic acid.
  • Biomaterial' means material which is generally allowed to be implanted, injected or applied to human and whose biocompatibility is verified.
  • Biomaterial may comprise pharmaceutically acceptable buffer, injection or the like including saline solution.
  • the biomaterial may also comprise one or more carrier, vehicle, excipient for efficient delivery of an effective component.
  • any type of biomaterial containing hyaluronic acid may be used as long as that can be applied to a damaged area of cartilage including microfracture(s).
  • the biomaterial containing hyaluronic acid is gel-type.
  • the method for inducing regeneration of cartilage of the present invention does not comprise transplantation of cells including chondrocytes.
  • the method for inducing regeneration of cartilage of the present invention may be used in combination with other method for inducing cartilage regeneration.
  • the method that can be used with the present method include any surgical or drug administering methods known in the art.
  • the present invention provides a composition for applying to a mi- crofractured site for inducing regeneration of damaged cartilage comprising hyaluronic acid.
  • the molecular weight of hyaluronic acid is greater than 10,000 Da.
  • the present composition for applying to a microfractured site for inducing regeneration of damaged cartilage further comprises one or more inducers of chondrogenic differentiation.
  • inducers of chondrogenic differentiation may be selected from the group consisting of transforming growth factor - ⁇ (TGF- ⁇ ), BMPs, IGF, Wnt proteins. More preferably, the inducer of chondrogenic differentiation is TGF- ⁇ or BMP-2.
  • the present invention provides a use of hyaluronic acid for applying to a microfractured site for inducing regeneration of damaged cartilage.
  • composition of the present invention may be applied to an damaged area of cartilage after microfrature formation in that area.
  • Bone marrow-derived stem cells flowed over the damaged area of cartilage facilitate regeneration of hyaline-like cartilage, which is more natural, rather than fibrocartilage thereby improve remedial results.
