It's no coincidence that our bodies feel a little creakier as we age. The trillions of cells that make up our skeleton age too, and some change in ways that weaken the very structure of our bones.

Bone health relies on a balance between osteoblasts (builders) and osteoclasts (recyclers). Peak bone mass occurs in early adulthood; deficiencies during this window amplify fracture risks later in ...

In a global breakthrough published in Nature Genetics, researchers have successfully mapped the cells and genes that regulate ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Psychological stress may alter the gut microbiome, potentially accelerating the aging process in bone marrow stem cells, a ...

Hidden within our bones, marrow sustains life by producing billions of blood cells daily, from oxygen-carrying red cells to immune-boosting white cells. This vital function is often disrupted in ...

A new study generated one of the most comprehensive spatially resolved transcriptomic maps of cellular communication between ...
