A study activated genes in human stem cells that initiate biomineralization, a key step in bone formation, according to a science team. Scientists engineered spider web silk combined with silica to activate cell membrane protein receptor integrin. The research will help scientists model intracellular pathways that govern bone formation and efforts to cure diseases such as osteoporosis and calcific aortic valve disease.
