Research published today describes for the first time the identification of human skeletal stem cells. The discovery may enable the development of novel therapeutic strategies for diseases that cause ...

Skeletal stem cells form part of the bone marrow stroma, where they contribute to bone growth, bone modeling, and bone remodeling during life. In addition to this, they help produce adipocytes the ...

Human skeletal stem cells that become bone, cartilage, or stroma cells have been isolated from fetal and adult bones. This is the first time that skeletal stem cells, which had been observed in rodent ...

Believe it or not, scientists are still discovering new forms of stem cells Believe it or not, scientists are still discovering new forms of stem cells-- and these latest examples could shake up how ...

In vertebrates, the skeleton of different regions of the body arises from different precursor cells. Researchers at the University of Basel have now discovered that these skeletal cells do not just ...

In the event of a bone fracture, fatty acids in our blood signal to stem cells that they have to develop into bone-forming cells. If there are no blood vessels nearby, the stem cells end up forming ...

First, let’s talk about the difference between bone and cartilage. They both are materials that can make up a skeleton, but they are quite different. Bone doesn’t bend. It is very strong, but it’s ...
