Osteoclast Differentiation [PDF]
Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 1991 The osteoclast is the primary bone resorbing cell. It is a highly specialized multinucleated cell whose primary function is to help in the control of calcium homeostasis. The osteoclast has been very difficult to study because of its relative inaccessability, low numbers, and fragility when isolated from bone.

Mechanisms by which sialylated milk oligosaccharides impact bone biology in a gnotobiotic mouse model of infant undernutrition [PDF]
, 2019 Undernutrition in children is a pressing global health problem, manifested in part by impaired linear growth (stunting). Current nutritional interventions have been largely ineffective in overcoming stunting, emphasizing the need to obtain better ...

Analysis of Nkx3.1:Cre-driven Erk5 deletion reveals a profound spinal deformity which is linked to increased osteoclast activity [PDF]
, 2017 Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase 5 (ERK5) has been implicated during development and carcinogenesis. Nkx3.1-mediated Cre expression is a useful strategy to genetically manipulate the mouse prostate. While grossly normal at birth, we observed

Arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid suppress osteoclast formation and activity in human CD14+ monocytes, in vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 An unbalanced diet can have adverse effects on health. Long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) have been the focus of research owing to their necessity of inclusion in a healthy diet. However, the effects of LCPUFAs on human osteoclast formation

RhoA promotes osteoclastogenesis and regulates bone remodeling through mTOR-NFATc1 signaling
Molecular Medicine, 2023 Background The cytoskeletal architecture of osteoclasts (OCs) and bone resorption activity must be appropriately controlled for proper bone remodeling, which is associated with osteoporosis.

Vav1 inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption [PDF]
, 2019 Vav1 is a Rho/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor primarily expressed in hematopoietic cells. In this study, we investigated the potential role of Vav1 in osteoclast (OC) differentiation by comparing the ability of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs)
