New research from Professor Guillermo Ameer’s team shows how a shape change of a cell’s nucleus can trigger regenerative signals and improve implant performance.

Estrogen plays an important role in keeping bones healthy. Now, researchers investigated how membrane-initiated estrogen ...

In a recent study, Associate Professor Makoto Ikeya (Department of Clinical Application) and his team of researchers ...

This review discusses the role of skeletal stem cells (SSCs) in bone development, homeostasis, and disease. Recent advancements have identified that SSCs are not a uniform population; rather, they ...

The researchers further found that skeletal development and bone mass accrual did not recover, even after long-term treatment was stopped. As up to 40% of peak bone mass is accrued in puberty, ...

Heterotopic Ossification happens when bone fragments grow in parts of your body that they shouldn’t. Learn about the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for heterotopic ossification today.

A pair of proteins, YAP and TAZ, has been identified as conductors of bone development in the womb and could provide insight into genetic diseases such as osteogenesis imperfecta, known commonly ...

Dr. Catherine Gordon, a pediatric endocrinologist and bone researcher at Baylor, is leading a study on the effects of puberty blockers on bone development in transgender youths.

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 ...

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 ...

As we age, our bones lose some of their density and strength due to a disrupted balance between bone breakdown and rebuilding in osteoporosis.
