This project focuses on understanding the mineralization of collagen in bone tissue, using advanced imaging and gene editing techniques. It aims to reveal the roles of various proteins in this process, which could lead to new treatments for bone-related diseases.
Bone tissue is an organic-inorganic composite material that provides the mechanical support and protection for our bodies.
Its impressive mechanical properties arise from the hierarchical organization of the organic collagen matrix that is mineralized with ultrathin, aligned inorganic crystals of carbonated hydroxyapatite.
Despite its importance to the human body, still relatively little is understood about the mechanisms by which collagen mineralization occurs, and what the respective roles are…
