Bone is continuously renewed through a process known as bone remodeling, in which osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) build new ...

Osteoporosis is no longer just an "old woman's disease"; women in their late 30s and 40s now experience early signs of ...

Cell- and animal-based models of bone formation reveal novel mechanisms involved in the cartilage-to-bone phenotype transition Animal studies have shown that some cartilage cells can transition to a ...

Around 40% of adults worldwide are affected by osteopenia: a loss of bone mineral density. This condition is extremely common ...

The first 'blueprint' of human skeletal development reveals how the skeleton forms, shedding light on the process of arthritis, and highlighting cells involved in conditions that affect skull and bone ...

In our bones, specialized cells called osteoblasts are responsible for building up bone substance. A team of researchers has now identified an enzyme that controls the activity of osteoblasts. An ...
