Abstract:
UNLABELLED:The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) has invested approximately $70 million in programs targeting various orthopedic indications, including osteoporosis, bone fracture healing, vertebral compression fractures, and several others. The present article serves to outline the current state of CIRM's more advanced programs, comparing and contrasting them with the current standard of care and several other novel approaches under development. SIGNIFICANCE:This report describes CIRM bone programs that are in contrast to current cell therapy approaches. These projects aim to enhance stem cell activity for bone regeneration.
