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

Researchers in Brazil have developed a graphene-based scaffold derived from industrial waste that attracted bone cells and ...

The first comprehensive single-cell atlas of bone-innervating sensory neurons has identified their dual role in reporting and repairing bone damage, providing a potential target for drugs that might ...

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 ...

HO or abnormal bone formation in soft tissues can restrict movement and cause long-term discomfort after surgery or injury. In a new study, researchers have identified two key proteins that help ...

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

Normal, regulated growth of skeletal bones is a crucial part of the growth of mammals. This is a complex process involving the growth of cartilaginous cells or chondrocytes, their transformation into ...

Holly Ingraham, a physiologist at the University of California, San Francisco, who led the research, has spent the last 15-plus years trying to improve the understanding of female physiology. She ...

When bones break and there is extreme tissue loss--such as after a car accident or a battlefield injury--current treatments don’t often lead to effective healing. But certain stem cells from skeletal ...

When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the occupants of danger. But imagine if the device could transform into something ...
