Cell- and animal-based models of bone formation reveal novel mechanisms involved in the cartilage-to-bone phenotype transition Animal studies have shown that some cartilage cells can transition to a ...

In our bones, specialized cells called osteoblasts are responsible for building up bone substance. A team of researchers has now identified an enzyme that controls the activity of osteoblasts. An ...

Bones are the living tissue on which the human skeleton is constructed and play a key role in enabling physical movements. The structural integrity of bones has been attributed to bone remodeling-aa ...

Bone Biologics is developing a differentiated, biologically active orthobiologic platform (NB-1, based on rhNELL-1) to ...

There is a complex pathological relationship between diabetes and osteoporosis, two of the most common chronic diseases worldwide.

A new study published in Biomaterials Advances suggests that keratin-based membranes could offer a promising new option for guided bone regeneration, a technique commonly used to ...

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

Bone spurs are smooth bony projections that form along joint edges, often due to ageing, osteoarthritis, injury, or repetitive stress.

Researchers found a bone switch that could stop osteoporosis before a fracture happens. Here are the biggest questions ...
