London-Sana

British scientists have created a miracle pad to repair broken bones as the biomaterial greatly speeds up healing and is set to revolutionize fracture treatment.

According to the British Mirror, scientists at King's College London explained that the technique was the first to engineer bone-like tissue from human bone stem cells in the laboratory within one week and successfully implanted it to start repair, as this dressing can adhere to the fracture like a plaster and enhance the natural capacity of bone. Healing will speed up the repair process.

This technique, described in the journal Nature Materials, can be used to repair other damaged tissues and organs as the miracle dressing includes a chemical cocktail of stem cells and master cells that can transform into any type of tissue or organs and mature bone cells coated with a protein used throughout the body for growth. A fix to simulate parts of healthy bone.

Lead author Dr. Shukri Habib explained that this bandage improves restoration and may change the method of treating bone fractures and can be further accelerated by generating bone cells in a three-dimensional gel on the bandage and implanting it into the fracture.

Habib pointed out that this breakthrough could make a big difference in the recovery periods for patients with serious bone fractures. “The healing process from a serious fracture can be slow or it may fail in high-risk patients such as the elderly or those with health conditions. Bad.

The "bone-like dressing" designed at the Center for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine to specifically target the fracture supports the survival and bone formation of these extra stem cells and bone throughout the healing process. The bandages can be made biodegradable so that they can be absorbed by the body once healing is over.
