Around 500 million years ago, early vertebrates in the seas became fish, adopting an inner skeleton and a flexible spine based on a nanocmposite of fibers and mineral, known as bone material. This ...

MicroRNA-27a has been shown to stimulate both the wingless-type integration site family, or Wnt signaling, and the bone morphogenetic protein pathways to actively promote bone regeneration, according ...

The field of bone tissue engineering (BTE) was a promising avenue for addressing bone injuries and defects by constructing artificial scaffolds with bionic functionalities. Due to its unique 3D ...

Researchers have developed a magnetic nanomaterial that can kill bone cancer cells and support bone regeneration at the same ...

Eggshells, which are primarily composed of a form of calcium called calcium carbonate, are used in a wide range of applications – from a supplement in chicken feed to natural pest control for the ...

The utilization of biodegradable biomaterials as a therapeutic modality for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration has emerged as a promising avenue for ...

Vitamin K2 is a versatile nutrient recognized for its bone and cardiovascular health benefits. It ensures calcium reaches the ...

Hidden inside every organ, microscopic fibers form a scaffolding that quietly shapes how we move, think, and heal. For the first time, scientists have produced detailed maps of these fiber webs across ...

Bone cancer is a rare type of cancer that happens when cells in a bone begin to grow out of control. While people may think of bone as solid and unchanging, it constantly dissolves and forms new bone ...
