Core Tip

Core Tip: The key to bone regeneration is the mutual balance between osteoblasts, osteoclasts and angiogenesis. As a critical factor in bone regeneration, exosome-derived noncoding RNA (exo-ncRNA) has been extensively studied. However, the detailed mechanism of exo-ncRNA in bone regeneration is still unclear, and further research is necessary. This article summarizes the research on exo-ncRNA in bone regeneration.
