Several signalling pathways, including the JAK/STAT signalling pathway, have been identified to regulate the differentiation of human bone marrow skeletal (mesenchymal) stem cells (hBMSCs) into bone-forming osteoblasts.

Epithelial carcinomas occasionally have sarcomatous components that consist primarily of spindle and cuboidal cells, which often resemble osteoblasts. Sarcomatoid carcinomas consist of similar cells. Recent studies have characterized these phenomena as a

In vitro characterization of immune-related properties of human fetal bone cells for potential tissue engineering applications [PDF]
We describe herein some immunological properties of human fetal bone cells recently tested for bone tissue-engineering applications. Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts were included in the study for comparison.

Bone is the most common destination of metastatic breast cancer cells. Upon dissemination to the bone, cancer cells may either colonize aggressively or enter a quiescent state, depending on interactions with the bone microenvironment. This study revealed

Prostate cancer bone metastases promote both osteolytic and osteoblastic activity [PDF]
Advanced prostate cancer is frequently accompanied by the development of metastasis to bone. In the past, prostate cancer bone metastases were characterized as being osteoblastic (i.e., increasing bone density) based on radiographs.

Osteoblastic cell behavior on nanostructured metal implants.
Item does not contain fulltextAIMS: Surface modifications at the nanometric scale may promote protein adsorption, cell adhesion and thus favor the osseointegration of metal implants.

Periostin inhibits mechanical stretch-induced apoptosis in osteoblast-like MG-63 cells
Background/purpose: Appropriate mechanical stress plays an important role in regulating the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, whereas high-level mechanical stress may be harmful and compromise cell survival.

MSCs are known to have an extensive proliferative potential and ability to differentiate in various cell types. Osteoblastic differentiation from mesenchymal progenitor cells is an important step of bone formation, though the pattern of gene expression

We reported that interleukin (IL) 6 alone cannot induce osteoclast formation in cocultures of mouse bone marrow and osteoblastic cells, but soluble IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) strikingly triggered osteoclast formation induced by IL-6.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in post-transcriptional gene regulation by binding to messenger RNA and thereby modulating protein synthesis and affecting cellular functions such as proliferation and apoptosis. In bone biology, miRNAs influence
