The FORTIFY Bones trial examined whether strength training twice a week for one year could improve bone strength and reduce fracture risk in adults aged 50 and older with low bone density.
Researchers developed an experimental antibody treatment called MS-Hu6 that blocks follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), a hormone involved in bone health, body fat regulation, and brain function.
Researchers created a mouse model of osteoglophonic dysplasia to better understand why the condition causes excess FGF23, low phosphate levels, and abnormal bone development.
Researchers created a mouse model of hypochondroplasia that showed memory problems and a much higher susceptibility to seizures, similar to neurological issues seen in some people with the condition.
Researchers tested whether the dose of infigratinib used to treat children with achondroplasia also interferes with FGFR1, a related receptor that could cause adverse effects.
