Ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are common knee injuries that do not heal, even with surgical repair. Our research is directed towards developing novel, biological approaches that enable suture repair of this ligament. One promising strategy involves the insertion of a collagen hydrogel between the severed ends of the ACL. Cells migrate from the damaged ligament into the hydrogel...
The inability of the ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee joint to heal spontaneously presents numerous clinical problems. Here we describe a novel, gene-based approach to augment ACL healing. It is based upon the migration of cells from the ruptured ends of the ligament into a collagen hydrogel laden with recombinant adenovirus. Cells entering the gel become transduced by the vector,...
