Macrophages and Bone Remodeling
Bone remodeling in the adult skeleton facilitates the removal and replacement of damaged and old bone to maintain bone quality. Tight coordination of bone resorption and bone formation during remodeling crucially maintains skeletal mass.

Tiludronate and clodronate do not affect bone structure or remodeling kinetics over a 60 day randomized trial [PDF]
Background Tiludronate and clodronate are FDA-approved bisphosphonate drug therapies for navicular disease in horses. Although clinical studies have determined their ability to reduce lameness associated with skeletal disorders in horses, data regarding

Osteoporosis is a serious health issue among aging postmenopausal women. The majority of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis have bone loss related to estrogen deficiency. The rapid bone loss results from an increase in bone turnover with an imbalance

Analysis of Nkx3.1:Cre-driven Erk5 deletion reveals a profound spinal deformity which is linked to increased osteoclast activity [PDF]
Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 5 (ERK5) has been implicated during development and carcinogenesis. Nkx3.1-mediated Cre expression is a useful strategy to genetically manipulate the mouse prostate. While grossly normal at birth, we observed

Sympathetic Innervation Regulates Osteocyte‐Mediated Cortical Bone Resorption during Lactation
Bone undergoes constant remodeling by osteoclast bone resorption coupled with osteoblast bone formation at the bone surface. A third major cell type in the bone is osteocytes, which are embedded in the matrix, are well‐connected to the lacunar network ...

The Bone Resorption Inhibitors Odanacatib and Alendronate Affect Post-Osteoclastic Events Differently in Ovariectomized Rabbits [PDF]
Odanacatib (ODN) is a bone resorption inhibitor which differs from standard antiresorptives by its ability to reduce bone resorption without decreasing bone formation. What is the reason for this difference?

Background Avascular necrosis of bone (osteonecrosis) can cause structural failure and subsequent deformation, leading to joint dysfunction and pain. Structural failure is the result of resorption of necrotic bone during revascularization, before new ...

Vav1 inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption [PDF]
Vav1 is a Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor primarily expressed in hematopoietic cells. In this study, we investigated the potential role of Vav1 in osteoclast (OC) differentiation by comparing the ability of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs)

Factors associated with implant marginal bone resorption after implant restoration in elderly patients with severe periodontitis [PDF]
Objective To analyze the factors related to implant marginal bone resorption after implant restoration in elderly patients with severe periodontitis. Methods One hundred and ninety-five elderly patients with severe periodontitis who underwent implant ...

Mechanical regulation of bone remodeling
Bone remodeling is a lifelong process that gives rise to a mature, dynamic bone structure via a balance between bone formation by osteoblasts and resorption by osteoclasts.
