Scientists have mapped the sensory neurons in bone for the first time, and identified their dual role in reporting and ...

In a study published in Cell Research, researchers have identified a fibrous-layer resident subpopulation of P-SSCs labeled ...

When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the occupants of danger. But imagine if the device could transform into something ...

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

Researchers have successfully regenerated damaged skull bones in mice by creating a freestanding, biomimetic scaffold that combines a piezoelectric framework and the growth-promoting properties of a ...

A recent study has developed a novel composite aerogel scaffold designed to enhance bone regeneration in cases of bone defects. Combining electrospun poly(lactic acid ...

Orthopedic implants are used to fixate the bone fragments of fractures. Novel smart implants are now being developed that can continuously monitor and actively promote bone healing—by, for example, ...

The study uncovers a unique reparative function of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the process of fracture healing, a discovery that adds a new dimension to our understanding of the immune response in ...

In today's world, more people suffer from bone problems caused by injuries, infections, or birth defects. As the population grows older, these issues are becoming more common. Traditional treatments ...

Studies by University of Birmingham researchers suggest that a naturally occurring peptide known as PEPITEM (Peptide Inhibitor of Trans-Endothelial Migration), could represent a promising potential ...
