For many years, it was widely believed that fossils no longer contained any original organic molecules as the fossilization ...

Bones are the living tissue on which the human skeleton is constructed and play a key role in enabling physical movements. The structural integrity of bones has been attributed to bone remodeling—a ...

Bones are the living tissue on which the human skeleton is constructed and play a key role in enabling physical movements.

The discovery of a family with sequence similarity 102 member A (Fam102a) protein as a novel bone remodeling factor that regulates both osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation can aid the ...

The findings shed light on how proteins like collagen may survive for millions of years within dinosaur bones.

Researchers have identified Type R capillaries’ importance in bone remodelling in mature and ageing bones. This shows that ...

Researchers have discovered clear chemical traces of decaying collagen in a duck-billed dinosaur fossil, upending previously held notions that any organic material found within such ancient fossils ...

In order to move the field forward it is clear that increasing our understanding of the mechanisms controlling cell fate in the process of cartilage and bone formation and repair will be crucial.

Citrate plays a crucial role in the formation of plate-like structures within bone crystals and is tightly bound to hydroxyapatite as an integral component (37). This suggests that citrate cannot be ...
