Osteoblasts act in a group to make bone over the course of several months. However, how osteoblasts cooperate with each other in vivo is still unknown. Now, researchers at Osaka University established ...

Osteoblasts derived from MSCs are cells required for bone formation. Oxidative phosphorylation produces a lot of ATP and other products including NAD+ and ROS. These factors play important roles in ...

A recent study identifies Neural EGFL-like 2 (NELL2), a secreted protein, as a key regulator of bone homeostasis, offering potential therapeutic applications for osteoporosis. NELL2 promotes ...

Wif1 overexpression accelerated osteogenic differentiation by activating genes related to late-stage osteogenic differentiation and mitophagy processes. Moreover administering Wif1-overexpressing ...
