DeNovo®ET Living Cartilage ImplantDeNovo ET is a scaffold-free living cartilage implant designed as an off-the-shelf product to repair and regenerate damaged knee cartilage. ISTO Technologies uses a patented, juvenile cell-based technology to produce DeNovo ET implants. Juvenile cartilage cells have far superior regenerative properties than adult cartilage cells (1).
ISTO’s patented cell-based technology harnesses the natural healing power of juvenile cartilage cells to create a living cartilage implant. The resulting implant exhibits biochemical properties similar to those of articular cartilage found in young, healthy joints (1).
