Ptosis as a unique hallmark for autosomal recessive WNT1-associated osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable connective tissue disorder, mainly characterized by bone fragility and low bone mass. Defects in the type I procollagen-encoding genes account for the majority of OI, but increasingly more rare autosomal ...

Low level laser therapy promotes bone regeneration by coupling angiogenesis and osteogenesis

open access: yesStem cell research & therapeutics, 2021
Bone tissue engineering is a new concept bringing hope for the repair of large bone defects, which remains a major clinical challenge. The formation of vascularized bone is key for bone tissue engineering.

Evaluation of Vibration Analysis to Assess Bone Mineral Density in Children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The effectiveness of vibration analysis to assess bone mineral density (BMD) in children with suspected reduction in bone density was studied. A system was designed that measured the ulna's vibration responses in vivo.

MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE: Osteogenesis imperfecta: an update on clinical features and therapies.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited skeletal dysplasia characterized by bone fragility and skeletal deformities. While the majority of cases are associated with pathogenic variants in COL1A1 and COL1A2, the genes encoding type I collagen, up to ...

Exosomes Derived From M2 Macrophages Facilitate Osteogenesis and Reduce Adipogenesis of BMSCs

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Bone regeneration is a complex process that requires the coordination of osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. The balance between osteogenesis and adipogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) plays a major role in the process of bone ...

Effects of Thyroxine Exposure on Osteogenesis in Mouse Calvarial Pre-Osteoblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The incidence of craniosynostosis is one in every 1,800-2500 births. The gene-environment model proposes that if a genetic predisposition is coupled with environmental exposures, the effects can be multiplicative resulting in severely abnormal phenotypes.
