Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

Experiments conducted in Brazil using laboratory rats have shown that graphene-based structures can act as a powerful ally in ...

Whether you are a competitive athlete or an older adult, strong bones are essential—not only for movement, but also for overall health. Now, a new study has shed new light on how our bones are ...

While research has uncovered many details about how blood cells function within bone marrow, the work of other cells existing in that space remained a relative mystery. Now, researchers from the ...

A team of Brazilian researchers has produced a graphene-based scaffold that, when implanted into broken rat tibias, drove ...

Cell- and animal-based models of bone formation reveal novel mechanisms involved in the cartilage-to-bone phenotype ...

Researchers uncover a redox-regulated mechanism that determines whether bone fractures heal or progress to non-union. Bone has an extraordinary capacity to heal after injury, restoring its structure ...

Breast cancers frequently spread to the bone, establishing tumors that are largely impervious to treatment and are associated with poor patient prognoses. A deficiency in the oxygen-carrying capacity ...
