Funded Activity Summary

Osteoarthritis and back pain are regarded as cartilage disorders, however recent evidence suggests that underlying bone and joint fluid pathology are also involved. This project takes a unique approach of targeting bone and joint fluid pathology of knee osteoarthritis and back pain, and will test the effects of existing therapies and krill oil through clinical trials. If successful, it will have the potential to slow progression to joint replacement through an easy method of implementation.
