A new treatment that blocks an aging-related protein restored lost cartilage in old mice and helped prevent arthritis after knee injuries. Human cartilage samples showed similar signs of regeneration, raising hopes for a future drug that could repair joints instead of replacing them.

Weird.
it’s weird to comment “weird” on everything

“four letter science comic”
Are you really that offended I linked to a relevant comic that wasn’t xkcd?
I take it you didn’t read the conversation to get the markers about the topic before posting that.
Lots of reading comprehension problems in these science posts
Protip, being abrasive makes people not want to talk to you.
