Cell- and animal-based models of bone formation reveal novel mechanisms involved in the cartilage-to-bone phenotype ...

Obesity is widely known for increasing the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but its damaging effects on the ...

Sustained hypoxia affects orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) by altering osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, report researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Hypoxic conditions ...

Researchers in Sweden have engineered a cell-free cartilage scaffold that can guide the body to rebuild damaged bone. By removing the cells but preserving the structure and natural growth signals, the ...

A recent discovery could transform our understanding of bone health maintenance and pave the way for potential treatments for bone diseases, including osteoporosis. Researchers at the University of ...

Researchers reveal TGF-β1 promotes scar tissue formation and restricts recovery ...

The GPR133 receptor is expressed by osteoblasts, the cells that make bone. The study suggests that this receptor helps those cells sense two kinds of input: mechanical strain and signals relayed by ...

Researchers from Tomsk Polytechnic University, as part of a scientific collaboration, proposed a one-step approach to improve ...

Bioactive glasses, a filling material which can bond to tissue and improve the strength of bones and teeth, has been combined with gallium to create a potential treatment for bone cancer. Tests in ...

A bone-like composite developed at EPFL uses naturally occurring enzymes to accelerate mineralization through an ...
