SSCs are heterogeneous in nature, contributing to the development of long bones, craniofacial structures, and the spine. These SSCs have important functions in a variety of physiological and ...

A study conducted by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and collaborating institutions reveals the molecular events leading to osteogenesis imperfecta type V, a form of brittle bone disease ...

Chemicals called PFAS may lower bone density in adolescents, a new study has found.

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.

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 ...

Growth plates are areas of cartilage found at the ends of long bones. They play a role in the bone growth of children and teens. An injury to a growth plate can affect the development of a bone. While ...

Forever chemicals” may be affecting kids in ways that last a lifetime. A new study links early PFAS exposure to lower bone ...

In vertebrates, the skeleton of different regions of the body arises from different precursor cells. Researchers at the University of Basel have now discovered that these skeletal cells do not just ...
