Peptides for Targeting Chondrogenic Induction and Cartilage Regeneration in Osteoarthritis.

In this paper, we will summarize the application of peptides engineered to regenerate cartilage by acting as scaffolds, functional molecules, or both and discuss additional possibilities for peptides. This review article provides an overview of our current understanding of chondroinductive peptides for treating OA-affected cartilage and explores the delivery systems used for regeneration. These advancements may hold promise for enhancing or even replacing current treatment methodologies.
