Thus, at present, these organisms are not amenable to in vitro cultivation, which is a prerequisite for effective genetic modification and functional ...

Mechanism of ITGB2 in Osteoclast Differentiation in Osteoarthritis
In osteoclast precursors, higher ITGB1 than ITGB2 expression increases ITGA2‐ITGB1 integrin. In OA, extracellular signals upregulate ITGB2 and downregulate ITGB1, enhancing ITGA2‐ITGB2 integrin. This activates Rac1 to Rac‐GTP, driving osteoclast differentiation. Hyperactive subchondral osteoclasts accelerate OA progression.
