Advanced Bioresponsive Drug Delivery Systems for Promoting Diabetic Vascularized Bone Regeneration

Advanced Bioresponsive Drug Delivery Systems for Diabetic Vascularized Bone Regeneration Background The treatment of bone defects in patients with Diabetes Mellitus (DM) remains a significant challenge, as the diabetic microenvironment severely impedes bone regeneration. Various abnormal factors in the diabetic microenvironment, such as hyperglycem...

The SIRT5-JIP4 Interaction Promotes Osteoclastogenesis by Modulating RANKL-Induced Signaling Transduction

SIRT5-JIP4 Interaction Promotes Osteoclastogenesis by Modulating RANKL-Induced Signaling Transduction Research Background Osteoporosis is a common bone disease characterized by reduced bone density and disrupted bone microstructure, leading to an increased risk of fractures. Osteoclasts, the primary cells responsible for bone resorption, play a cri...
