Exciting research from Max Plikus and Raul Ramos has identified a novel skeletal tissue ‘lipocartilage’ with resilient properties that could aid tissue reconstruction!

Abstract:

Conventionally, the size, shape, and biomechanics of cartilages are determined by their voluminous extracellular matrix. By contrast, we found that multiple murine cartilages consist of lipid-filled cells called lipochondrocytes. Despite resembling adipocytes, lipochondrocytes were molecularly…
