If you have ever broken a bone, you quickly learn two things: it hurts a lot, and bones are living tissue that takes time to heal, but they do heal. A fractured femur, for instance, may take six ...

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.

In a recent study, Associate Professor Makoto Ikeya (Department of Clinical Application) and his team of researchers successfully established a method to generate jawbone-like organoids (mini-organs) ...

Rather than completely blocking all downstream signals, the peptide developed in this study focuses on inhibiting the activation of p38-MAPK. This is enough to downregulate the development of mature ...
