Researchers at EPFL 3D printed porous bone scaffolds to support bone regeneration. Learn about the process here.

Scientists have identified a protein that blocks the activity of bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) by stopping them from maturing during the journey to sites of bone formation, a new study has found.

Researchers at King's College London have discovered that an immune protein best known for protecting the body against ...

It might be hard to believe when you're being jabbed from the inside by a pointy elbow or when a little bottom is pushing on your bladder that your baby's bones are still soft, flexible, and a long ...

This is a rare peek at how cartilage transforms into bone. In this image, you can see cartilage (in purple and white), blood vessels and cells (in yellow), and other specialized cells that create ...

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 ...

A pair of proteins could contribute to the development of healthy, strong bones by directing early cell movement and blood vessel generation. A pair of proteins, YAP and TAZ, has been identified as ...

Two distinct stem cell lineages that drive tooth root and alveolar bone formation have been identified by researchers from Science Tokyo. Using genetically modified mice and lineage-tracing techniques ...

Heterotopic ossification happens when bone grows outside of its normal location and into the surrounding soft tissues of your body. When this happens, the pieces of bone that develop are called ...
