Bone fracture healing is a dynamic process that relies on coordinated cellular interactions for effective tissue regeneration. We employ optimized spatial transcriptomics to delineate the locations ...

Each year, doctors treat more than 6 million bone fractures in the United States. And while it takes only a few seconds for a ...

Bone healing is integral to orthopedic research, focusing on the restoration of bone function through a complex interplay of inflammatory responses, soft callus formation, hard callus development, and ...

A tool made from a modified glue gun can now repair broken bones in surgery by 3D-printing grafts directly onto them. Bone implants have historically been made of metal, donor bone and more recently ...

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 ...

A new study explores the potential of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) antagonists in restoring defective mandibular bone repair in mouse models of osteochondrodysplasia, a group of genetic ...

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 ...

Birmingham researchers have shown that PEPITEM, a naturally-occurring peptide (small protein), holds promise as a new therapeutic for osteoporosis and other disorders that feature bone loss, with ...

The innovative technology is based on a nanoparticle in the form of a polymer sphere. The sphere introduces a microRNA molecule into cells. This triggers human body cells, located at the site of the ...

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 ...

Photomicrograph of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons from a newborn rat. A research team led by Johns Hopkins Medicine has created the first map showing the communication network among DRG neurons in ...

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 ...
