In a study published in Cell Research, researchers have identified a fibrous-layer resident subpopulation of P-SSCs labeled ...

A study conducted by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions reveals the molecular events leading to osteogenesis imperfecta type V, a form of brittle bone disease ...

A pair of proteins, YAP and TAZ, has been identified as conductors of bone development in the womb and could provide insight into genetic diseases such as osteogenesis imperfecta, known commonly as ...

In the elderly, a multitude of factors contribute to diminished bone regeneration capabilities, including a reduction in the self-renewal and differentiation abilities of mesenchymal stem cells, an ...

Scientists uncovered how the protein Piezo1 translates physical activity into stronger bones, offering a path to exercise-mimicking therapies. Scientists from the Department of Medicine, School of ...

SSCs are heterogeneous in nature, contributing to the development of long bones, craniofacial structures, and the spine. These SSCs have important functions in a variety of physiological and ...

Full view of how bones and joints form in the first trimester uncovers cells and pathways that could help diagnose and treat skeletal conditions in the future. The first 'blueprint' of human skeletal ...

Skeletal conditions such as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), osteoporosis, and osteoarthritis affect millions worldwide, often causing chronic pain and disability. These disorders stem from ...

A pair of proteins could contribute to the development of healthy, strong bones by directing early cell movement and blood vessel generation. A pair of proteins, YAP and TAZ, has been identified as ...

A recently published prospective study in JAMA Network Open identified a significant association between children's bone health and their proximity to green areas. The literature emphasized the ...

Intermuscular bones (IBs) are slender ossified segments embedded within the myosepta of lower teleost fishes. Formed through a process of intramembranous ossification, these structures play a dual ...
