Abstract: Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) has been demonstrated to accelerate bone healing; however, the mechanism underlying ESWT-induced bone regeneration has not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to examine the effects of ESWT and the… read more here.

Abstract: Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an extremely rare disease in which bone tissue forms in extraskeletal sites, which is known as heterotopic ossification (HO). Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are small phospholipid-enclosed particles released by various cells… read more here.
