Researchers have developed a soft laser-printed scaffold made almost entirely of water that bone cells readily colonize.

Researchers in Brazil have developed a graphene-based scaffold derived from industrial waste that attracted bone cells and promoted fracture repair in laboratory and animal tests. The work, published ...

Penn Medicine researchers unveiled in a recently published paper that a type of stem cell originating in skeletal muscle cells can turn into bone. Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy ...

Osteoporosis is a disease of the skeletal system that makes bones more likely to break, affecting more than 200 million people worldwide. However, scientists may have found a way to rebuild those ...

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 ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Our body's "blood factory" consists of specialized tissue made up of bone cells, blood vessels, nerves and other cell types. Now, researchers have succeeded for the first time in recreating this ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

New research shows how curcumin’s molecular power protects bone cells from high-glucose stress, repairs mitochondria, and boosts antioxidant defences, offering hope for tackling diabetes-related bone ...
