The Rising Burden of Osteosarcopenia in Older Adults: A Narrative Review of Pathophysiology, Diagnostic Challenges, and Therapeutic Perspectives

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Osteosarcopenia, defined as the coexistence of osteoporosis and sarcopenia, is an emerging geriatric syndrome linked to the musculoskeletal decline associated with aging. It is correlated with an increased risk of falls, fractures, disability, and mortality.

Reciprocal Macrophage‐MSC Crosstalk Drives Immunomodulatory and Regenerative Phenotypes in a Mineralized Collagen Scaffold

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 114, Issue 6, June 2026.
Macrophage‐MSC interactions are dynamic. Following injury, neutral (M0) macrophages arrive at the defect site and polarize towards M1 (pro‐inflammatory) macrophages, which can secrete inflammatory and cell recruitment factors. MSCs in this inflammatory defect can take on a licensed state in which they secrete a series of immunomodulatory factors that ...

Controversies Surrounding Critical‐Size Defects: Influence of Age and Biological Characteristics

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Critical‐size defects (CSDs) in craniofacial reconstruction refer to osseous gaps that fail to heal spontaneously, increasing the risk of neurological impairment and craniofacial dysmorphology. Despite decades of investigation, controversy still exists surrounding the definition of CSDs, with criteria varying across species, experimental ...

Biochemical bone biomarkers in plasma cell dyscrasias

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, Volume 208, Issue 6, Page 1909-1923, June 2026.
Visual abstract depicting that bone turnover markers reflect dynamic alterations in bone remodelling across the spectrum of plasma cell dyscrasias but remain limited by assay variability, biological confounding and incomplete integration with imaging and risk stratification.

Osteoblast‐Derived Osteomodulin Suppresses Bone Loss in Osteoporosis by Inhibiting Osteoclastogenesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 10, 31 May 2026.
Osteoblast‐derived matricellular protein osteomodulin (OMD) critically regulates bone remodeling homeostasis via directly and competitively binding to RANKL, the master cytokine driving osteoclast formation. OMD shares overlapping binding sites on RANKL with osteoprotegerin and functional receptor RANK.

Osteoprotegerin and fibroblast growth factor 23 in the development of cardiovascular events in chronic kidney disease

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2014
AIM: To study the role of the bone mineral metabolic mediators osteoprotegerin (OPG) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) in the mechanisms of cardiovascular events (CVEs) in chronic kidney disease (CKD)/MATERIAL AND METHODS: Sixty-eight patients (30
