Sep. 20, 2022 Scientists have shown that high-fat diets can cause rapid changes in the bone marrow of mice, driving the production of inflammatory immune cells, according to new ...
Sep. 13, 2022 Researchers have developed a novel screening method to identify a drug that mimics the effects of exercise on muscle and bone. Locamidazole (LAMZ) improved muscle width and function and promoted bone ...
Sep. 7, 2022 A new study in mice found that hypertension may be linked to significant bone loss. Bone quality in young mice with high blood pressure was similar to the bones of older mice without high blood ...
Aug. 9, 2022 Scientists have developed a new mathematical model that may help clinicians decide on the best combination of osteoporosis medications for patients and the order in which they should be ...
July 29, 2022 Long periods in space damage bone structure irreparably in some cases and can make parts of the human skeleton age prematurely by up to 10 years, according to new research. Adapted training programs ...
June 9, 2022 Researchers have identified the role of transcription factors Runx1 and Runx2 in the inhibition of fibrosis, the abnormal build-up of connective tissue with severe hematopoietic defects, in the bone ...
June 3, 2022 Researchers have determined chemical parameters that affect the rate of calcium phosphate ceramic conversion into hydroxyapatite in a simulated body fluid. Shorter carbon chain lengths in the ...
May 3, 2022 Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and phthalates (two types of endocrine-disrupting chemicals) may be associated with lower bone mineral density in male teens, according to a new ...
Apr. 4, 2022 Physicians may be able to determine if menopause-related bone loss is already in progress or about to begin by measuring the level of a hormone called anti-Mullerian hormone that declines as women ...
Feb. 24, 2022 What determines the switch from bone formation to resorption has been unclear. Researchers show that intercellular communication via extracellular vesicles from bone-making osteoblasts is a key ...
Feb. 16, 2022 To enhance the regeneration of bone, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2, or BMP-2. However, it is expensive and only moderately effective. ...
Feb. 10, 2022 Men with high levels of body fat have lower bone density and may be more likely to break a bone than those with normal levels of body fat, according to a new ...
Feb. 9, 2022 Researchers found that prunes can help prevent or delay bone loss in postmenopausal women, possibly due to their ability to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, both of which contribute to bone ...
Feb. 8, 2022 Channels on the surface of bone cells called osteocytes help build stronger bones in response to mechanical stress, shows a new ...
Jan. 5, 2022 Drugs we take like prednisone can weaken our bones and so can aging, and scientists working to prevent both have some of the first evidence that the best target may not be the logical one. They are ...
Nov. 12, 2021 Chronic inflammation caused by obesity may trigger the development of cells that break down bone tissue, including the bone that holds teeth in place, according to new research that sought to improve ...
Oct. 27, 2021 Bone mineral density at the femoral neck bone in postmenopausal women decreased by an average of 10% during a 25-year follow-up, according to a new study. Being the world's hitherto longest ...
Oct. 14, 2021 A new discovery about osteoporosis suggests a potential treatment target for that brittle-bone disease and for bone loss from rheumatoid ...
Oct. 8, 2021 Researchers have identified a subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cells in the bone marrow that express the marker CD73. These cells have a higher potential for proliferation and differentiation, and ...
Sep. 14, 2021 Epigenetic changes in old age increase risk of osteoporosis and bone ...
