For those suffering from primary bone cancer — which is cancer that originates in the bones — a promising new medication may be on the horizon. The drug, called CADD522, works by blocking a gene ...

When a bone break is too severe to heal on its own, surgeons often rely on grafts or rigid metal implants — but both come ...

Researchers in Sweden have engineered a cell-free cartilage scaffold that can guide the body to rebuild damaged bone. By ...

Bone growth occurs through the proliferation of specialized cells of the cartilage tissue, known as chondrocytes, on either end of a bone. This process requires the synthesis of extracellular matrix ...
