Cyclic Polymer Grafts that Protect Cartilage and Restore its Natural Function

A team of researchers led by Dr. Edmondo M. Benetti (Polymer Surfaces Group, D-MATL) and Prof. Marcy Zenobi-Wong (Tissue Engineering and Biofabrication, D-HEST) designed tissue-reactive graft copolymers to protect the cartilage against enzymatic degradation and restore its lubrication properties during the early stages of osteoarthritis (OA).
