Discover how magnesium and phosphorus support bone strength, muscle function, and energy production. Learn ideal food sources and signs of deficiency.

Even though bone cells carry the gene for insulin, this gene is not transcribed. Therefore, the transcriptome functions as a kind of catalog of all of the genes that are being expressed in a cell ...

his experiments indicate that “the normal function of those cells is to contribute to bone remodeling.” A spatial analysis of tissue with bone metastasis showed NG2+ cells and DTCs in adjacent and ...

One of the ultimate goals of biological research is to understand the multiscale organization of the human cell and its relationship to biological function and human disease. As much of cell ...

“Grow your own bone” might not sound like much of a business slogan, since even children do just that naturally. But EpiBone, a two-year-old company based in Harlem, New York, has adopted the ...
