From osteoblast to osteoclast: new insights of Yin-Yang theory in bone remodeling
Yin-Yang theory plays critical role in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) science. However, there are many competing interpretations of Yin-Yang theory in the context with the development in biology, and no consensus has been established.

Regulation of osteoblast differentiation mediated by BMP, Notch, and CCN3/NOV
Osteoblasts originate from common progenitors, which are capable of differentiating into other mesenchymal cell lineages such as chondrocytes, myoblasts and adipocytes.

Cell Transitions Contribute to Glucocorticoid-Induced Bone Loss
Glucocorticoid-induced bone loss is a toxic effect of long-term therapy with glucocorticoids resulting in a significant increase in the risk of fracture.

Osteoblast-Targeting-Peptide Modified Nanoparticle for siRNA/microRNA Delivery [PDF]
Antiosteoporosis gene-based drug development strategies are presently focused on targeting osteoblasts to either suppress bone loss or increase bone mass.

Osteal tissue macrophages are intercalated throughout human and mouse bone lining tissues and regulate osteoblast function in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
Resident macrophages are an integral component of many tissues and are important in homeostasis and repair. This study examines the contribution of resident tissue macrophages to bone physiology.

PPAR Gamma Activity and Control of Bone Mass in Skeletal Unloading
Bone loss occuring with unloading is associated with decreased osteoblastogenesis and increased bone marrow adipogenesis, resulting in bone loss and decreased bone formation.

Repression of osteoblast maturation by ERRα accounts for bone loss induced by estrogen deficiency. [PDF]
ERRα is an orphan member of the nuclear receptor family, the complete inactivation of which confers resistance to bone loss induced by ageing and estrogen withdrawal to female mice in correlation with increased bone formation in vivo.

The p38 MAPK pathway is essential for skeletogenesis and bone homeostasis in mice [PDF]
Nearly every extracellular ligand that has been found to play a role in regulating bone biology acts, at least in part, through MAPK pathways. Nevertheless, much remains to be learned about the contribution of MAPKs to osteoblast biology in vivo. Here we

Metaplasia of Chondrocytes into Osteoblasts
Hypertrophic chondrocytes, commonly considered as terminal cells responsible for apoptotic elimination in endochondral osteogenesis, have the potential to switch their metabolic role and enter osteoblastic differentiation, based on histochemical, immunohistochemical, biochemical and cytological analysis.
