Abstract:
Bone disorders affect more than half of the adult population worldwide who may have a poor quality of life and physical independence worldwide. Multi-omic techniques are increasingly adopted and applied to determine the molecular mechanisms of bone tissue repair, providing perspective towards personalized medical intervention. Data from genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, glycomics, and lipidomics were combined to elucidate dynamic processes in bone repair. In this narrative review, the key role of genetic and epigenetic factors in regulating injured cellular responses is highlighted, and changes in RNA and protein expression during the healing phase, as well as glucolipid metabolism adaptation, are described in detail how the repair process is affected. In a word, the integration of multi-omic techniques in this review not only benefits the comprehensive identification of new biomarkers, but also facilitates the development of personalized treatment strategies of bone disorders to revolutionize regenerative medicine.

Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
