The researchers examined data from more than half a million people to uncover genetic variants associated
with bone fractures.
The team identified variants in a region near the engrailed homeobox ‐ 1 gene (EN1) that were associated
with bone mineral density in the lumbar area of the spine.
The researchers also found several other variants associated
with bone mineral density in specific areas, including 3 for forearm, 14 for femoral neck, and 19 for lumbar spine.
One variant was also associated
with bone mineral density in the thigh bone at the hip (the «neck» of the femur).
Scientists have already identified many genetic factors associated
with bone mineral density.

with bone cells.
Dogs
with bone cancer that received a neurotoxin injection had significantly more pain relief than those that got standard care without the injection.
Dogs diagnosed
with bone cancer often arrive at the clinic at a very advanced stage of the disease, whereas in humans, bone cancer is usually detected early because people complain about the pain and have it investigated.

Beneath that is a layer of spongy, porous bone, on top of a hollow centre filled

The authors write that PBSCs are still used, despite disadvantages in patients
with bone marrow failure, most likely because centers obtain PBSCs routinely for other indications and cell separators are available at any transplant center.
