LOS ALAMOS, N.M., April 2003 -- Often viewed as static support beams, human bones are in fact dynamic organs enmeshed in the network chatter--the complex information processing--that characterizes ...

A multidisciplinary research team has developed a technique to replicate bone tissue complexity and bone-remodeling processes. This breakthrough could help researchers further their study of bone ...

An international collaboration study reveals how evolution and locomotion patterns, such as bipedalism, shaped bone structures through proteins present in the bone matrix. The findings of the study, ...

Throughout our lives, our bones are continuously remodeled to maintain strength, repair injuries and adapt to new stresses.

Skeletal stem cells form part of the bone marrow stroma, where they contribute to bone growth, bone modeling, and bone remodeling during life. In addition to this, they help produce adipocytes the ...

This diagram illustrates the role of macrophage ATF6 in orthodontic tooth movement. When corticotomy is applied, monocytes are recruited to the bone, where they differentiate into pro-inflammatory ...

Bone is a complex anisotropic hierarchical composite that consists of inorganic and organic components. Bone is also a living material that adapts to mechanical stimulations through continuous ...

In recent years, interest has grown around two investigational peptides, BPC-157 and TB-500, proposed as part of a combined research-oriented protocol to explore tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and ...
