Endothelial-to-Osteoblast Conversion (EC-to-OSB) regulates bone formation and homeostasis via the Kindlin-2/Piezo1/TGFβ/Runx2 axis. Reduced Kindlin-2 in endothelial ...

Scientists develop a new material that protects stem cells and helps repair facial bone damage by reducing harmful stress and inflammation in the body. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Maxillofacial bone defects ...

Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

Bone tissue is a complex structure, consisting of mineralized collagen fibers and a variety of non-collagenous proteins, including proteoglycans such as biglycan and decorin. These proteoglycans ...

Studies by University of Birmingham researchers suggest that a naturally occurring peptide known as PEPITEM (Peptide Inhibitor of Trans-Endothelial Migration), could represent a promising potential ...
