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 ...

The researchers undertook a specific in vivo analysis of the mitochondrial malfunction in the skeletal system using a mouse model. They were able to show that a development-dependent impairment of the ...

The skeleton allows movement, provides support and protection for vital organs and makes blood cells. Skeletal muscles move the bones in the body. The skeletal system is made from bones and joints.

Patients with degenerative diseases that attack skeletal muscle tissues, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, may soon benefit from novel stem cell therapies. A study has demonstrated how new ...

The Center for Skeletal Medicine and Biology brings together diverse researchers ... Dr. Xiang Zhang conducted a series of analyses to profile the immune cell composition of tumor microenvironments in ...

New mechanisms discovered that show how development-dependent disruptions in mitochondrial function lead to premature skeletal aging.
