Breast cancer bone metastases are attenuated in a Tgif1-deficient bone microenvironment

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2020
Background Osteoclast activation is a hallmark of breast cancer-induced bone disease while little is known about the role of osteoblasts in this process.

Effects of Mechanical Stress Stimulation on Function and Expression Mechanism of Osteoblasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Osteoclasts and osteoblasts play a major role in bone tissue homeostasis. The homeostasis and integrity of bone tissue are maintained by ensuring a balance between osteoclastic and osteogenic activities.

In vitro characterization of immune-related properties of human fetal bone cells for potential tissue engineering applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Effect of diabetic osteoblasts on osteogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2015
Background: This study was aimed to investigate whether osteoblasts from diabetic patients have a promoting effect on osteogenesis of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs).

DKK1 Induced by 1,25D3 Is Required for the Mineralization of Osteoblasts

open access: yesCells, 2020
1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25D3), the most popular drug for osteoporosis treatment, drives osteoblast differentiation and bone mineralization. Wnt/β-catenin signaling is involved in commitment and differentiation of osteoblasts, but the role ...

Osteocytes but not osteoblasts directly build mineralized bone structures

open access: yes, 2021
Bone-forming osteoblasts have been a cornerstone of bone biology for more than a century. Most research toward bone biology and bone diseases center on osteoblasts. Overlooked are the 90% of bone cells, called osteocytes.

Effects of Thyroxine Exposure on Osteogenesis in Mouse Calvarial Pre-Osteoblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The incidence of craniosynostosis is one in every 1,800-2500 births. The gene-environment model proposes that if a genetic predisposition is coupled with environmental exposures, the effects can be multiplicative resulting in severely abnormal phenotypes.

Comparison of the Anabolic Effects of Reported Osteogenic Compounds on Human Mesenchymal Progenitor-derived Osteoblasts

open access: yesBioengineering, 2020
There is variability in the reported effects of compounds on osteoblasts arising from differences in experimental design and choice of cell type/origin.

Bone Cell Exosomes and Emerging Strategies in Bone Engineering

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Bone tissue remodeling is a highly regulated process balancing bone formation and resorption through complex cellular crosstalk between resident bone and microenvironment cells.

Spreading area and shape regulate apoptosis and differentiation of osteoblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The in vivo observations have indicated that at the remodeling sites of bone, the spreading area or shape of preosteoblasts is confined by the mineralized matrix.
