MicroRNA-27a has been shown to stimulate both the wingless-type integration site family, or Wnt signaling, and the bone morphogenetic protein pathways to actively promote bone regeneration, according ...

In a recent study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, researchers showed that microRNAs (miRNAs), small, non-coding RNA sequences, can stimulate Wnt signaling and bone morphogenetic protein ...

The utilization of biodegradable biomaterials as a therapeutic modality for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration has emerged as a promising avenue for ...

Growth plates are areas of cartilage found at the ends of long bones. They play a role in the bone growth of children and teens. An injury to a growth plate can affect the development of a bone. While ...

The study shows that fat tissue, when processed and cultured in a specific way, can self-organize into structures resembling bone marrow, pancreatic islets, and even neural tissue. These organoids ...
