Researchers uncover a redox-regulated mechanism that determines whether bone fractures heal or progress to nonunion ...

That unmistakable sound of bone giving way under pressure sends immediate dread through anyone who hears it. Broken bones account for millions of medical visits annually in the United States alone, ...

Bone fracture healing is a highly coordinated process involving inflammation, fibrovascular formation, and mineralization. Vascularization plays a pivotal role, as inadequate blood supply can severely ...

Bone fractures heal more slowly with age, increasing health risks for older adults. A new study reveals that rising levels of the liver-produced ...

A medical research team at Saarland University, led by Professor Bergita Ganse, has discovered a new approach to monitoring bone fracture healing by measuring blood supply to the tissue at the ...

TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — A University of Arizona study suggests a drug already approved for multiple sclerosis could help broken bones heal faster and stronger. The drug, 4-aminopyridine, or 4-AP, was ...

CD47-null femoral fractures show reduced bone formation, but increased tissue mineral density. µCT analysis of transverse femoral fracture in WT (n = 9) and CD47-null (n = 11-14) mice at 10- and ...
