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.

Estrogen plays an important role in bone biology, best illustrated by three points of observations: Although both ESRs are identified in osteoblasts (cells that make bone), osteoclasts (cells that ...

Endothelial cells transport immature osteoblasts to new bone sites. However, when CLEC14A is present on the endothelial cell ...

Clotting proteins missing or are defective in hemophilia can directly affect the activity of cells responsible for bone ...

Osteoblasts are the cells responsible for bone formation. These cells were found to experience senescence, an accelerated aging or premature shutting down of cellular activity due to the mutation.
