Estrogen supports kidney regeneration and protects women from a chronic disease

Estrogen supports kidney regeneration and protects women from a chronic disease

The new mouse test ensures that women in their reproductive years seem to be relatively protected against chronic kidney disease, which is a leading problem of public health. The study informs that the signaling regulated by estrogen promotes the regeneration of key filter cells in female kidneys. The study also combines pregnancy complications, such as […]

DDR2 increases BMP-dependent bone regeneration and reduces heterotopic ossification

DDR2 increases BMP-dependent bone regeneration and reduces heterotopic ossification

Research into bone regeneration has taken a significant step forward with the discovery of a key mechanism that could transform treatments for bone diseases. Scientists have identified how discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2) enhances bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-dependent bone regeneration while reducing the risk of heterotopic ossification (HO), offering promising therapeutic opportunities. This breakthrough sheds […]
