The manufacturing of bone diseases: The story of osteoporosis and osteopenia
The present-day definitions of osteopenia and osteoporosis were arbitrarily conceived by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the early ’90s and then projected upon millions of women’s bodies seemingly in order to convince them they had a drug-treatable, though symptomless, disease (Article by Sayer Ji republished from GreenMedInfo.com) Osteopenia (1992)[i] and osteoporosis (1994)[ii] were formally identified as skeletal […]

Researchers look at chunkung herbal medicine and its ability to prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women
Osteoporosis is a bone disease that affects older adults. It is characterized by weak and brittle bones that make a person more prone to fractures. According to experts, the bones are in a constant state of renewal. During childhood and until the early 20s, a person makes new bones faster than his body could break down old ones […]

Modern bone healing: Scientists design device that helps accelerate bone regeneration
As many as 6.3 million cases of bone fracture are reported in the U.S. annually. While the body usually begins to repair itself within minutes of a fracture’s occurrence, that process can sometimes be impaired. This can result in debilitating injuries. As a way to address the latter, surgeons at the University of Michigan Medicine […]

Study proposes that the “fight or flight” response is triggered by your bones, NOT adrenaline
In the face of fear and apparent danger, both humans and animals initiate an acute reaction to stress in their bodies. Their breath quickens, their pupils dilate and their hearts begin to pound faster than usual. These programmed changes occur as part of the so-called “fight-or-flight” response. Scientists have long believed that the hormone called adrenaline triggers […]

Icariin can promote repair of articular cartilage defects in vivo
In this study, Chinese researchers developed icariin-conditioned serum (ICS) and determined its ability — when combined with hyaluronic acid (HA) — to repair a critical-sized osteochondral defect in rabbit knees. Their results were published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine. Osteochondral defects are mostly caused by trauma or articular degeneration. Because of articular cartilage’s poor regenerative ability, osteochondral […]

Cannabinoid receptor 2 activation is key to preventing local and systemic inflammatory bone destruction in rheumatoid arthritis patients
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is one of the most important systems in the human body. It is composed of cannabinoid receptor proteins (CB1 and CB2), chemical activators (endocannabinoids) and enzymes, and is widely distributed throughout the body, especially in the brain. According to studies, the ECS influences all the major organ systems inside the body, including […]

“Double-duty” hydrogel promotes bone growth while fighting bacteria
Bone infection is one of the complications that may arise from surgeries prompted by automobile accidents, combat wounds or cancer treatments. To fight this type of infection, a team of researchers recently developed a new, double-duty hydrogel that simultaneously attacks bacteria and promotes bone regrowth with a single application. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology created the […]

Eggshells may one day be used to repair bones, experts claim
Eggshells can be used to grow new bones for bone grafts, reported a recent study published in Biomaterials Science. A team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) developed a hydrogel scaffold containing pulverized eggshells that can support the growth of new bones. And because the material can enhance the ability of bone cells to grow and harden, the researchers […]

Investigating the effects of E. longifolia on the proliferation, differentiation and maturation of osteoclasts
Malaysian researchers investigated the effect of Eurycoma longifolia, also known as longjack, on the proliferation, differentiation and maturation of osteoclasts and the translational mechanism of inhibition of osteoclastogenesis using RAW 264.7 cells. Their findings were published in the Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine. E. longifolia has gained remarkable recognition due to its efficacy in stimulating bone formation in […]
