Bones form the scaffolding that hold the body together and allow it to move. They also help protect vital organs, store minerals, and provide an environment for creating bone marrow. By adulthood, ...
Researchers uncover a redox-regulated mechanism that determines whether bone fractures heal or progress to non-union.
Bone tissue engineering and regeneration stands at the forefront of regenerative medicine, offering innovative solutions for skeletal repair and reconstruction. This multidisciplinary field integrates ...
Bone fractures usually heal efficiently, but in some patients this process fails, causing nonunion. A recent study identifies ...
