Mar. 10, 2023 —The skeleton, tendons, and glands of a functional jaw all derive from the same population of stem cells, which arise from a cell population known as neural crest. To discover how these neural ...
May 5, 2021 —New research has now mapped the unique genetic profile of the skeleton's 'master regulator' cells, known as ...
Apr. 20, 2021 —Researchers examined the shoulder assembly of Little Foot, an Australopithecus that lived more than 3 million years ago, and may have confirmed how our human ancestors used their ...
June 19, 2021 —Just as the skeleton and muscles move the human body and hold its shape, the cells of the body are stabilized and moved by a cellular skeleton. This cellular skeleton is a dynamic structure, ...
June 14, 2023 —Digital modelling of legendary fossil's soft tissue suggests Australopithecus afarensis had powerful leg and pelvic muscles suited to tree dwelling, but knee muscles that allowed fully erect ...
Feb. 16, 2021 —Individual variation in the shape and structure of the Achilles tendon may influence our susceptibility to injury later in ...
Nov. 1, 2022 —Reproduction permanently alters females' bones in ways not previously known, a team of anthropologists has found. Its discovery, based on an analysis of primates, sheds new light on how giving ...
Oct. 11, 2022 —New research found that young athletes who participate in multidirectional sports, instead of specializing in something like running or cycling, can build stronger bones that are less prone to injury ...
Feb. 4, 2021 —Researchers examine what's happening at genetic level to drive patterns in fin skeleton versus limb skeleton and find mutants with modified fins in a more limb-like pattern by adding new bones, ...
Nov. 25, 2020 —Researchers have determined the three dimensional (3D) structure of a protein responsible for glass formation in sponges. They explain how the earliest and, in fact, the only known natural ...
