The use of piezoelectric materials to treat critical-sized bone defects typically requires additional stimulation to generate their piezoelectric properties and the implantation of scaffolds to ...

Compromised vascular supply and insufficient neovascularization impede bone repair, increasing risk of non-union. CYR61, Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer of 61kD (also known as CCN1), is a ...

A new study explores the potential of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) antagonists in restoring defective mandibular bone repair in mouse models of osteochondrodysplasia, a group of genetic ...

When a house catches on fire, we assume that a smoke alarm inside will serve one purpose and one purpose only: warn the occupants of danger. But imagine if the device could transform into something ...

Photomicrograph of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons from a newborn rat. A research team led by Johns Hopkins Medicine has created the first map showing the communication network among DRG neurons in ...

A new study developed a mineralized DNA hydrogel that combines immune regulation with sustained bone regeneration. Using tetrahedral DNA nanostructures and calcium phosphate mineralization, ...

The first comprehensive single-cell atlas of bone-innervating sensory neurons has identified their dual role in reporting and repairing bone damage, providing a potential target for drugs that might ...
