Rapamycin incorporating hydrogel improves the progression of osteoarthritis by inducing synovial macrophages polarization and reducing intra-articular inflammation

In the macrophage-specific mTORC1 signaling activation model, the synovial macrophages polarized toward M1, thus aggravating synovitis and progression of OA. Therefore, intra-articular injection of rapamycin, a classical mTORC1 inhibitor, may show great potential for alleviating synovitis and delayi...
