Osteoblasts act in a group to make bone over the course of several months. However, how osteoblasts cooperate with each other in vivo is still unknown. Now, researchers at Osaka University established ...

Endothelial-to-Osteoblast Conversion (EC-to-OSB) regulates bone formation and homeostasis via the Kindlin-2/Piezo1/TGFβ/Runx2 axis. Reduced Kindlin-2 in endothelial ...

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 health is crucial for overall well-being, and engaging in the right exercises can significantly improve it ...

"[...] our work suggests that increased mtROS or decreased Atg7-dependent autophagy in osteoblastic cells, as well as reduced osteocyte dendrite number – common ...

Osteoporosis is the primary cause of bone fractures in the elderly, reflecting an imbalance between osteoclasts, bone-degrading cells, and osteoblasts, bone-building cells. Teriparatide is the only ...

New research has identified how bone cells subdue cancer cells that have reached the bone so that the cancer cells remain dormant for decades. The finding may help researchers develop new treatments ...

In breast cancer, there are cases of women and men whose cancer returns in their bones 20-30 years after they were treated for their primary disease and thought they were cancer-free. This phenomenon ...
