In a study released Thursday, which involved seven postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, a MicroChips device implanted in the abdomen delivered daily doses of a bone-forming hormone as safely and at least as effectively as regular injections of the drug, the researchers said.

In 2008 he and colleagues announced in a paper in Nature Medicine that they had managed to do just that: when he injected human bone-forming stem cells tagged with HCELL into mice, the cells headed for the mice's bones and began forming human bone there.

During that time, I've witnessed breakthroughs as diverse as biosynthetic human insulin, bone-forming agents for treating osteoporosis, new cancer therapies, and a first-ever treatment for severe sepsis go from glimmers of intuition to everyday medical tools.

The scientists then placed human osteoblasts, or bone-forming cells, on the nanotube-covered samples.

In addition to hormone replacement, the bisphosphonates alendronate, ibandronate, and risedronate, calcitonin, and raloxifene are antiresorptive medications, which slow or stop the bone-resorbing portion of the bone-remodeling cycle without slowing the bone-forming portion of the cycle.

Under the slightest irritation or stimulation, however, their bone-forming functions are stirred into abnormal activity, thus explaining how easy it is (especially with bones so open to receive slight injuries as are those of the foot) to get ossific deposits, the starting-point of which we are quite unable to account for.

-- This is more particularly a chronic process, and is, as the suffix '_plastic_' indicates, associated with bone-forming changes in the membrane.

In connection with the deep layer of the periosteum, and forming part of it, are found numerous bone-forming cells (_osteoblasts_).
