博川报道：曼彻斯特的科学家希望测试人类胚胎干细胞修复软骨磨损或骨关节炎损坏的有效性.
    苏珊金伯博士领导的研究队伍将进行了一系列实验,以测试是否胚胎干细胞可以生成所需的细胞来修复关节软骨.他们的研究对于治疗骨关节炎具有巨大的潜力,足以影响到在英国数以百万计的老年人.
    随着英国规划的三年190,000英镑的资金用于支持关节炎研究,金伯博士和来自曼彻斯特大学生命科学学院的一队研究团队将开展修复软骨细胞的基础早期研究工作,称为从胚胎干细胞到软骨细胞.现在,他们希望把他们的方法进一步应用于实验室,从而使治疗骨关节炎患者的工作向前迈进了一大步.

  A team led by Dr Susan Kimber will perform a series of laboratory experiments to test whether embryonic stem cells can generate the cells needed to repair cartilage in joints. Their research could have enormous potential in treating osteoarthritis, which affects millions of older people in the UK.A team led by Dr Susan Kimber will perform a series of laboratory experiments to test whether embryonic stem cells can generate the cells needed to repair cartilage in joints.

  With funding of £190,000 over three years from the Arthritis Research Campaign, Dr Kimber and a team from the Faculty of Life Sciences at the University of Manchester will build on earlier work that developed the basis for generating cells capable of repairing cartilage, known as chondrocytes, from embryonic stem cells. Now they want to take their method a stage further in the lab, moving a major step forward to treating patients with osteoarthritis.
