Indirect osteoblast differentiation by liposomal clodronate [PDF]
AbstractBisphosphonates impair function of osteoclasts and prevent bone resorption, the mechanism of which has been studied extensively. However, the possible effects of bisphosphonates on chondroblast differentiation and calcium deposition by osteoblasts have only been demonstrated recently.

High-phosphate Causes Endothelial Extracellular Matrix Calcification by Inducing Endothelial Cell Mesenchymal Transition and Osteoblastic Differentiation [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes are prevalent conditions characterized by increased cardiovascular risk, also due to vascular calcification (VC). Vascular smooth muscle cells actively participate to VC, conversely, the role of endothelial cells

Akt activation is required for TGF-β1-induced osteoblast differentiation of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: We have previously reported that repeated treatment of human periodontal ligament cells and murine pre-osteoblast MC3T3-E1 cells with transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) inhibited their osteoblastic differentiation because of decreased

Involvement of Phosphodiesterase Isozymes in Osteoblastic Differentiation [PDF]
Abstract The cyclic monophosphate nucleotides (cyclic adenosine monophosphate [cAMP] and cyclic guanosine monophosphate [cGMP]) are found ubiquitously in mammalian cells and act as second messenger transducers to effect the intracellular actions of a variety of hormones, cytokines, and neurotransmitters.

Gene regulatory landscape in osteoblast differentiation
The development of osteoblasts, a bone-forming cell population, occurs in conjunction with development of the skeleton, which creates our physical framework and shapes the body. In the past two decades, genetic studies have uncovered the molecular framework of this process-namely, transcriptional regulators and signaling pathways coordinate the cell ...

Involvement of nervous system on the osteoblastic differentiation and function [PDF]
Recently the relationships between nervous system and bone metabolism have been revealed. Though recent evidences suggest that both sympathetic and sensory nerves affect bone metabolism, little is known about the involvement of neuropeptides on the ...

The role of osteoblast cells in the pathogenesis of unicameral bone cysts
PurposeThe pathogenesis of unicameral bone cysts (UBCs) remains largely unknown. Osteoclasts have been implicated, but the role of osteoblastic cells has, to date, not been explored.
