Break and then stand: novel insight into osteoclast functions in the skeletal system

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2022
The skeleton provides the scaffold to support body weight, enable body movement, control mineral homeostasis, and provide the location for hematopoiesis.

Strontium potently inhibits mineralisation in bone-forming primary rat osteoblast cultures and reduces numbers of osteoclasts in mouse marrow cultures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The basic mechanisms by which strontium ranelate acts on bone are still unclear. We show that an important action of strontium salts is to block calcification in cultures of osteoblasts, the bone-forming cells.

SMAD1/5 signaling in osteoclasts regulates bone formation via coupling factors. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Bone remodeling occurs via coupling between bone resorption by osteoclasts and bone formation by osteoblasts. The mechanisms that regulate osteoclast signals to osteoblasts are not well understood.

The Beta-Tubulin Isotype TUBB6 Controls Microtubule and Actin Dynamics in Osteoclasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Osteoclasts are bone resorbing cells that participate in the maintenance of bone health. Pathological increase in osteoclast activity causes bone loss, eventually resulting in osteoporosis.

Role of galectin-3 in bone cell differentiation, bone pathophysiology and vascular osteogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Galectin-3 is expressed in various tissues, including the bone, where it is considered a marker of chondrogenic and osteogenic cell lineages. Galectin-3 protein was found to be increased in the differentiated chondrocytes of the metaphyseal plate ...

Macrophages and osteoclasts: similarity and divergence between bone phagocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Both macrophages and osteoclasts are vital immune components of the bone microenvironment. While macrophages play an essential role in phagocytosis, pathogen clearance and tissue remodeling, osteoclasts are well described for their bone resorption ...

The effects of seeding density and osteoclastic supplement concentration on osteoclastic differentiation and resorption

open access: yesBone Reports, 2023
The bone resorbing osteoclasts are a complex type of cell essential for in vivo bone remodeling. There is no consensus on medium composition and seeding density for in vitro osteoclastogenesis, despite the importance thereof on osteoclastic ...

Investigation of bone resorption within a cortical basic multicellular unit using a lattice-based computational model

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we develop a lattice-based computational model focused on bone resorption by osteoclasts in a single cortical basic multicellular unit (BMU).

Leucine Repeat Rich Kinase 1 Controls Osteoclast Activity by Managing Lysosomal Trafficking and Secretion

open access: yesBiology, 2023
We previously demonstrated that mice with targeted deletion of the leucine repeat rich kinase 1 (Lrrk1) gene were osteopetrotic due to the failure of osteoclasts to resorb bone.
