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 ...

The review of more than 60 scientific articles showed that microplastics, among other effects, can stimulate the formation of osteoclasts, cells specialized in degrading bone tissue. Microplastics ...

Researchers in Osaka have found that stem cells from fat tissue can repair spinal fractures similar to those caused by osteoporosis. By turning these cells into bone-forming clusters and pairing them ...

The utilization of biodegradable biomaterials as a therapeutic modality for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration has emerged as a promising avenue for ...

The field of bone tissue engineering (BTE) was a promising avenue for addressing bone injuries and defects by constructing artificial scaffolds with bionic functionalities. Due to its unique 3D ...

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 ...
