Blocking Abnormal Stem Cell Signal during Aging Lessens Related Bone Loss

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, September 27, 2023

The study, led by researchers from NYU Grossman School of Medicine, found that blocking the signaling pathway, called Notch, in aging skeletal stem cells caused a "massive increase" in bone mass and restored lost bone-healing ability during aging.

Key Points: 
  • The study, led by researchers from NYU Grossman School of Medicine, found that blocking the signaling pathway, called Notch, in aging skeletal stem cells caused a "massive increase" in bone mass and restored lost bone-healing ability during aging.
  • The study results revolve around immature stem cells, which have the capacity to mature into more than one cell type.
  • Aging is known to come with loss of the ability of stem cells to become bone-making cells, with related skeletal deterioration among the most common causes of age-associated impairment.
  • "Our newly gained knowledge opens potential therapeutic avenues to overcome age-related bone loss by manipulating down-stream effectors for Notch signaling in these stem cells."

NEW YORK, March 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Genes long known to control the formation of bones before birth also control bone healing later in life, a new study found.   

Key Points: 
  • NEW YORK, March 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Genes long known to control the formation of bones before birth also control bone healing later in life, a new study found.
  • Such adjustments guide immature stem cells as they multiply and mature in the womb, say the study authors, to become heart muscle, nerves, bones, etc., and in the right places.
  • Bone is among the tissues that keep pools of stem cells on hand into adulthood, ready to mature into needed replacement cells that maintain healthy tissue and heal broken bones.
  • During aging, such stem cells become depleted, the researchers say, resulting in weaker bones that are more likely to fracture and slower to heal.
