Normal, regulated growth of skeletal bones is a crucial part of the growth of mammals. This is a complex process involving ...

A newly discovered receptor switch that boosts bone growth could transform how we treat osteoporosis, by stimulating the body’s own bone-building machinery using a targeted drug and even mechanical ...

New research uncovers how the Clec14a protein in capillary endothelial cells controls bone growth and maturation, revealing a key mechanism in skeletal development. Study: Type-H endothelial cell ...

Osteoblasts derived from MSCs are cells required for bone formation. Oxidative phosphorylation produces a lot of ATP and other products including NAD+ and ROS. These factors play important roles in ...

Researchers in Osaka have found that stem cells from fat tissue can repair spinal fractures similar to those caused by osteoporosis. By turning these cells into bone-forming clusters and pairing them ...

Our fat tissue could be used to make our bones regrow, with scientists successfully using adipose cells to repair spinal compression fractures. It could change how breaks are treated and improve bone ...

Our bones support more than just a few essential functions in the body. Not only do they provide a robust framework to hold our body upright (an incredible feat in itself!), they coordinate with our ...

The review of more than 60 scientific articles showed that microplastics, among other effects, can stimulate the formation of osteoclasts, cells specialized in degrading bone tissue. Microplastics ...
