A new study explores the potential of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) antagonists in restoring defective mandibular bone repair in mouse models of osteochondrodysplasia, a group of genetic ...

A new study developed a mineralized DNA hydrogel that combines immune regulation with sustained bone regeneration.

Scientists have shown how wool could offer an effective and sustainable alternative to materials currently used to repair damaged bone. In the new study, keratin—a natural structural protein derived ...

Researchers have shown that a naturally occurring peptide (small protein) holds promise as a new therapeutic for osteoporosis and other disorders that feature bone loss, with distinct advantages over ...

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 ...

Photomicrograph of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons from a newborn rat. A research team led by Johns Hopkins Medicine has created the first map showing the communication network among DRG neurons in ...

When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come with serious drawbacks. Now, researchers at ETH Zurich have created a ...

Birmingham researchers have shown that PEPITEM, a naturally-occurring peptide (small protein), holds promise as a new therapeutic for osteoporosis and other disorders that feature bone loss, with ...

A tool made from a modified glue gun can now repair broken bones in surgery by 3D-printing grafts directly onto them. Bone implants have historically been made of metal, donor bone and more recently ...
