Genetic basis for skeletal new bone formation [PDF]
Bone formation is a complex process that occurs throughout life, and is normally limited to the skeletal system. In bone formation, osteoprogenitor cells follow several developmental stages, including differentiation in osteoblasts, proliferation, matrix

Early Life Stress (ELS) Effects on Fetal and Adult Bone Development
Early life stress (ELS) refers to harmful environmental events (i.e., poor maternal health, metabolic restraint, childhood trauma) occurring during the prenatal and/or postnatal period, which may cause the ‘epigenetic corruption’ of cellular and ...

Gaucher disease iPSC-derived osteoblasts have developmental and lysosomal defects that impair bone matrix deposition [PDF]
Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by bi-allelic mutations in GBA1, the gene that encodes acid β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Individuals affected by GD have hematologic, visceral and bone abnormalities, and in severe cases there is also neurodegeneration. To shed light on the mechanisms by which mutant GBA1 causes bone disease, we examined the ability of ...

Alveolar bone is the thickened ridge of jaw bone that supports teeth. It is subject to constant occlusal force and pathogens invasion, and is therefore under active bone remodeling and immunomodulation. Alveolar bone holds a distinct niche from long bone
