Loss of Stat3 in Prx1+ Progenitors Impairs Molar Root Development

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Stat3 critically regulates mandibular first molar and alveolar bone morphogenesis. Conditional ablation of Stat3 disrupts the osteogenic capacity of Prx1+ mesenchymal progenitors, as evidenced across in vivo and in vitro models. Abstract Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (Stat3) acts as a central transcriptional modulator coordinating ...

BONE MINERAL CONTENT IN TURNER'S SYNDROME [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1988
Bone mineral content of subjects with Turner's syndrome has been found smaller than predicted by age and sex. Bone mineral content related to bone width (BMC/BW) of 19 patients with Turner's syndrome not yet receiving estrogen replacement therapy (mean age: 11 yrs;range: 6-15 yrs) and of 22 patients receiving exogenous estrogens (mean age: 17 yrs 7/12;
