Bone implants often fail to fully integrate with surrounding tissue, limiting their effectiveness in regeneration. A natural but often overlooked cellular process could hold the key to better outcomes ...

Diagram illustrating how elevated ApoE from the aged liver disrupts Lrp4–β-catenin signaling in bone marrow stromal cells, suppressing osteoblast differentiation and bone repair. Neutralizing ...

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 ...

Healing a broken bone can take months, and knowing whether recovery is on track often takes just as long. Doctors typically rely on periodic X-rays, capturing two-dimensional images to see how the ...

A team of researchers from King’s College London is turning wool into sustainable material for bone repair. The researchers ...

Bone stimulators are devices that use electrical currents, magnetic fields, or ultrasound to encourage bone growth in fractures that are slow to heal. Research shows they can ease pain and lower the ...
