India, June 26 -- Researchers at Vilnius University are developing a biomimetic ceramic material with antibacterial ...

Researchers at Swansea University have developed a revolutionary bone graft substitute inspired by coral which not only promotes faster healing but dissolves naturally in the body after the repair is ...

In the elderly, a multitude of factors contribute to diminished bone regeneration capabilities, including a reduction in the self-renewal and differentiation abilities of mesenchymal stem cells, an ...

Bone regeneration is a complex process, and existing methods to aid regeneration including transplants and growth factor transmissions face limitations such as the high cost. But recently, a ...

Flexible silicon electronics can withstand body fluids and can integrate with curvy tissue. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Applied Materials Research (IFAM; ...

Researchers have developed a new surgical implant that has the potential to transform the treatment of complex bone infections. When implanted on an injured or infected bone, the material can not only ...

The elderly are at increased risk of bone fracture and more often consume poor quality diets, such as high-fat diet (HFD). We hypothesized that HFD exacerbates the loss of bone fracture resistance in ...

A new elastic calcium phosphate material that closely resembles the structure of human bone has been successfully created by a research team from the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology at the ...

Scientists regularly turn to nature for inspiration in their pursuit of next-generation materials, and a team of engineers studying the porous microstructures of bone and wood has come up with a ...

What keeps bones able to remodel themselves and stay healthy? A team from Charité Berlin has discovered clues to the key function of non-collagen protein compounds and how they help bone cells react ...

How much do you know about your bones? If you're like most Americans, the answer is likely "not much." That's because understanding bone health often only becomes a priority after problems appear — ...
