Scientists at the Children’s Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern (CRI) have identified a new mechanism by which exercise strengthens bones and immune function. Their studies in ...

Scientists have identified a protein that blocks the activity of bone-forming cells (osteoblasts) by stopping them from maturing during the journey to sites of bone formation, a new study has found.

Bone remodeling occurs in different parts of the body throughout life to maintain bone architecture balance and systemic mineral homeostasis. During this "remodeling" process, osteoclasts remove ...

A drug that kills cancer cells by puncturing them comes with an additional benefit: tests in mice suggest it reduces the growth of pain-sensing nerves around tumours ...

If you’ve been diagnosed with osteoporosis, odds are you want to do whatever you can to keep your bones strong. You may even wonder if it’s possible to restore lost bone density. But can you reverse ...

Brittle bone disease (osteogenesis imperfecta) is an inherited genetic condition that causes bone weakness. It can increase a person’s risk of fractures and other medical complications. A person with ...

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is an inorganic mineral present in human bone and teeth. It plays a role in the structural strength of bone and in bone regeneration. While it occurs naturally in bone, healthcare ...
