Recent advances in piezoelectric hydrogels for osteoarthritis therapy: material design, signal transduction, and clinical translation
With no disease-modifying therapy available, osteoarthritis (OA) remains a primary cause of disability worldwide. However, between 2023 and 2026, rapid advances have been made in the development of piezoelectric hydrogels, a technology that transduces joint motion into endogenous electrical signals, thereby restoring t...
