Over the past decade, 3D printing has gone from being a futuristic idea to a revolutionary tool. In medicine, its ability to produce custom-made, complex structures is changing the way doctors treat ...

In a recent study from Institute of Science Tokyo, Japan, researchers showed that microRNAs (miRNAs), small, non-coding RNA sequences, can stimulate Wnt signaling and bone morphogenetic protein ...

Bladder tissue was successfully grown from baboon bone marrow. It was kept functional for two years. This success is promising for success with human tissue over the next few years. Scientists from ...

Researchers have developed a magnetic nanomaterial that can kill bone cancer cells and support bone regeneration at the same ...

Researchers have successfully regenerated functional bladder tissue in a baboon using the animal’s own bone marrow cells. With the organ working within a few months and staying healthy throughout the ...

Bone cancer is a rare type of cancer that happens when cells in a bone begin to grow out of control. While people may think of bone as solid and unchanging, it constantly dissolves and forms new bone ...

A recent discovery could transform our understanding of bone health maintenance and pave the way for potential treatments for bone diseases, including osteoporosis. Researchers at the University of ...

In my time as a sports dietitian, I have consistently argued that understanding bone health—and the factors that contribute ...

MicroRNA-27a has been shown to stimulate both the wingless-type integration site family, or Wnt signaling, and the bone morphogenetic protein pathways to actively promote bone regeneration, according ...
