Bone formation

upin mice1

1 study
  1. DUSP26 increases bone formation in mice (shown by DUSP26 knockdown).

    “whereas its knockdown impaired bone formation and reduced type H vessels in vivo.”

Protein helps bone marrow stem cells develop into bone cells

Experiments in bone marrow stem cells linked the protein to mitochondrial maintenance and signals that support blood vessel formation.Experiments in bone marrow stem cells linked the protein to mitochondrial maintenance and signals that support blood vessel formation.
