 The human skeleton is composed of 206 bones. Bones are composed of tissue, proteins, minerals and vitamins. The formation, modelling and breakdown of bone is regulated by bone cells such as osteoblasts, and osteoclasts (International Osteoporosis Foundation, 2017). Osteoblasts are the cells responsible for producing and secreting bone matrix proteins for bone synthesis and remodelling, while osteoclasts are responsible for bone breakdown through the reabsorption. When the activity of osteoclasts surpasses the bone formation by osteoblasts, the bones become brittle and porous leaving them susceptible to fractures(International Osteoporosis Foundation, 2017). As the population ages, osteoporosis poses an increasing social and medical demand on individuals, caregivers and healthcare providers. Currently, prevention, detection and management are instrumental in managing this condition (Cosman et al., 2014).

-Osteoporosis is set to become a major health concern with an ageing population. Scientists have identified human stem cells that develop into the bone, cartilage, and other tissues that make up the body’s skeleton
+Osteoporosis is set to become a major health concern with an ageing population. Scientists have identified human stem cells that develop into the bone, cartilage, and other tissues that make up the body’s skeleton (Price et al., 2018). This will one day help doctors repair or replace joint cartilage, heal broken bones more quickly, and build up bone in osteoporosis patients. Additionally, a new genetic screen may predict a person’s future risk of osteoporosis and bone fracture and may allow for more preventative measures (University of Stanford, 2018).
