We invite submissions for a new Collection focused on bone biology, which encompasses the structure, function, and cellular processes of bone tissue, including osteoblast differentiation and ...

Researchers show that pharmacological activation of hypoxia signaling improves metabolism, limits fat accumulation, and ...

Obesity is widely known for increasing the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but its damaging effects on the skeleton are often overlooked. Excess body fat can disrupt bone metabolism, ...

For over a century, the science around bones has been rooted only in whatever an X-ray image was able to reveal. Bone research solely focused on mineral content through radiation images, limiting the ...

A new study has unveiled the crucial role of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) in skeletal development. Researchers have found that a deficiency of LRP1 in skeletal progenitor ...

In her undergraduate Biology courses at Sacramento State, Fatima Miranda Chavez became fascinated with stem cells and their potential to treat and cure devastating illnesses including cancer, ...

Recent findings in bone regeneration research, highlights the significant impact of biological sex and donor variability on healing processes, offering promising new approaches to personalized ...

When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come ...

A novel hydrogel bone implant mimics natural healing via a fibrin network, featuring world-record printing speeds and ...

One of the best-documented pathophysiological changes associated with microgravity and the spaceflight environment is bone loss. The reduction in bone mass and its effect following reentry could ...
