Constructed image from spatial transcriptomics slides measuring gene expression in tissues. This shows the developing upper limb, including the developing hand and digits. Each spot represents a ...

A pair of proteins could contribute to the development of healthy, strong bones by directing early cell movement and blood vessel generation. A pair of proteins, YAP and TAZ, has been identified as ...

Stem cells form the backbone of many cell-based therapies due to their unique properties, including the ability to self-renew and differentiate to many cell types. Multiple cell therapies deliver ...

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.

Growth plates are areas of cartilage found at the ends of long bones. They play a role in the bone growth of children and teens. An injury to a growth plate can affect the development of a bone. While ...

Primary types of bone cancer include osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, and chordoma. Secondary bone cancer develops as a result of cancer that has spread from another area of the body. Doctors broadly ...

Some kinds of bone cancer can develop in a person’s ribs. However, these bone cancer types are extremely rare. Cancer that forms in a person’s bones is called primary bone cancer (PBC). Another name ...
