A central question in adult stem cell biology is elucidating the signaling pathways regulating their dynamics and function in diverse physiological and age-related contexts. Muscle stem cells in ...

Skeletal stem cells have been isolated from various tissues, including periosteum and bone marrow, where they exhibit key functions in bone biology and hematopoiesis, respectively. The role of ...

Compared to the complexity of an octopus's arms, our own bones appear as rigid as tree branches. The flexible, boneless limbs of cephalopods stand out with their structure and capabilities, which have ...

Researchers from Tampere University, Finland, and Izmir Institute of Technology, Turkey, have developed an in vitro cancer model to investigate why breast cancer spreads to bone. Their findings ...

A recent study has uncovered that the protein CLEC14A, present on endothelial cells in bone, hinders the maturation of osteoblasts, thus inhibiting bone formation. Researchers have identified that the ...
