A team of researchers led by Osaka University find an overlap in the mechanism of hair color determination and bone resorption, which is associated with bone related diseases like osteoporosis Rab32 ...

Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disorder characterized by excessive bone loss, leading to increased fragility and an increased risk of fractures. Osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells, are widely ...

Throughout our lives, our bones are continuously remodeled to maintain strength, repair injuries and adapt to new stresses. Bone dynamics depend on two associated cell types: osteoblasts, which are ...

A transformative study has uncovered the pivotal role of the protein Naked cuticle homolog 2 (NKD2) in regulating the differentiation of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts. This ...

Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disorder characterized by excessive bone loss, leading to increased fragility and an increased risk of fractures. Osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells, are widely ...

Am J Health Syst Pharm. 2006;63(5):419-430. During resorption, growth factors and proteins released from osteoblast precursors and bone stimulate the differentiation, chemotaxis, and proliferation of ...

Osteocytes, the most abundant cells in bone tissue, have long been underestimated in their functional capacity. Traditionally viewed as passive entities, recent research has illuminated their pivotal ...

"Medical Journeys" is a set of clinical resources reviewed by doctors, meant for physicians and other healthcare professionals as well as the patients they serve. Each episode of this 12-part journey ...

Studies by University of Birmingham researchers suggest that a naturally occurring peptide known as PEPITEM (Peptide Inhibitor of Trans-Endothelial Migration), could represent a promising potential ...

As we age, keeping bones strong becomes increasingly important, yet not all supplements touted for bone health are as harmless as they seem. Experts are warning that certain vitamins, when taken in ...
