Researchers at the University of Alberta have fine-tuned a process for creating accurate digital 3D reconstructions of human bones, offering students and researchers a cost-effective and accessible ...

A new study has shown pollen grains can be used as green templates for producing biomaterials, showcasing their potential to support drug delivery and bone regeneration. With an increasingly aging ...

In cooperation with colleagues from the Wyss Institute at Harvard, researchers from the Julius Wolff Institute, the Berlin-Brandenburg Center for Regenerative Therapies, and Charité's Center for ...

Sustained hypoxia affects orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) by altering osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, report researchers from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan. Hypoxic conditions resulted ...

Newsweek discussed the study with a doctor, who said that "bone loss can occur relatively quickly during rapid weight loss." ...

Bones are the living tissue on which the human skeleton is constructed and play a key role in enabling physical movements. The structural integrity of bones has been attributed to bone remodeling-aa ...

A person with Type 2 diabetes is three times more likely to break a bone than a nondiabetic. Since the number of people with diabetes is increasing rapidly in the United States, skeletal fragility in ...

Researchers have identified a pair of proteins believed to be critical for spreading, or metastasizing, breast cancer to bone. Once breast cancer spreads to bone, treatment becomes nearly impossible.

Some people live with conditions that stop their bone marrow from working as it should. These people often need a transplant to survive. To help, donors can give: cells from bone marrow peripheral ...

Once breast cancer spreads to bone, treatment becomes nearly impossible. Breast cancer cells can lie dormant in the bone, often undetectable and able to escape typical treatments. Unfortunately, these ...
