VEGFR-2 reduces while combined VEGFR-2 and -3 signaling increases inflammation in apical periodontitis

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2016
Background: In apical periodontitis, oral pathogens provoke an inflammatory response in the apical area that induces bone resorptive lesions. In inflammation, angio- and lymphangiogenesis take place.

Mathematical modelling of the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma-induced bone disease [PDF]

, 2014
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common haematological malignancy and results in destructive bone lesions. The interaction between MM cells and the bone microenvironment plays an important role in the development of the tumour cells and MM ...

The Ligand for Osteoprotegerin (OPGL) Directly Activates Mature Osteoclasts

Journal of Cell Biology, 1999
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) and OPG-ligand (OPGL) potently inhibit and stimulate, respectively, osteoclast differentiation (Simonet, W.S., D.L. Lacey, C.R. Dunstan, M. Kelley, M.-S. Chang, R. Luethy, H.Q. Nguyen, S. Wooden, L. Bennett, T. Boone, et al.

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...

Investigating the efficacy of bisphosphonates treatment against multiple myeloma induced bone disease using a computational model [PDF]

, 2014
Multiple myeloma (MM)-induced bone disease is mortal for most MM patients. Bisphosphonates are first-line treatment for MM-induced bone disease, since it can inhibit osteoclast activity and the resultant bone resorption by suppressing the differentiation

A Self‐Assembling LYTAC Mediates CTGF Degradation and Remodels Inflammatory Tumor Microenvironment for Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A CTGF‐LYTAC nanoplatform is developed to selectively degrade connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC), inhibiting TGF‐β signaling and cell interactions in the tumor microenvironment (TME). This strategy effectively suppresses tumor growth and metastasis, outperforming antibody‐based therapy.

Osteoclast differentiation in rheumatoid arthritis

Immunological Medicine
Osteoclasts, derived from the monocyte/macrophage line of bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell progenitors, are the sole bone-resorbing cells of the body.

Myosins in Osteoclast Formation and Function

Biomolecules, 2018
Skeletal quantity and quality are determined by processes of bone modeling and remodeling, which are undertaken by cells that build and resorb bone as they respond to mechanical, hormonal, and other external and internal signals.

NOISe: Nuclei-Aware Osteoclast Instance Segmentation for Mouse-to-Human Domain Transfer [PDF]

arXiv
Osteoclast cell image analysis plays a key role in osteoporosis research, but it typically involves extensive manual image processing and hand annotations by a trained expert. In the last few years, a handful of machine learning approaches for osteoclast image analysis have been developed, but none have addressed the full instance segmentation task ...

Modeling the Multiple Myeloma Vicious Cycle: Signaling Across the Bone Marrow Microenvironment [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell cancer that leads to a dysregulated bone remodeling process. We present a partial differential equation model describing the dynamics of bone remodeling with the presence of myeloma tumor cells. The model explicitly takes into account the roles of osteoclasts, osteoblasts, precursor cells, stromal cells, osteocytes ...
