Researchers identify bone-forming cells as the driver of scoliosis caused by a genetic disorder, which can be prevented ...

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 ...

Scientists have identified a protein that blocks the activity of bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) by stopping them from maturing during the journey to sites of bone formation, a new study has found.

In a basic science study last year, researchers discovered that taurine, available in energy drinks and as a supplement, ...

Osteoporosis or the weakening of bones makes the aging population vulnerable to fractures and a decreased quality of life. The parathyroid hormone (PTH)-derived peptide -- teriparatide has ...

Mechanisms governing the antagonistic bone-promoting and bone-resorbing effects of parathyroid hormone induction are unclear. New study by researchers from Tokyo University of Science reveals a novel ...

Estrogen plays an important role in keeping bones healthy. Now, researchers investigated how membrane-initiated estrogen receptor alpha (mERα) signaling in specific cell types of female mice affects ...

A combination of intermittent fasting and a specialized biomedical bandage can restore bone healing in aged mice to levels seen in young animals, according to new research. The scientists say rigorous ...

In today's world, more people suffer from bone problems caused by injuries, infections, or birth defects. As the population grows older, these issues are becoming more common. Traditional treatments ...
