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.

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.

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 ...

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 ...

A novel assay for analysis of the regulation of the function of human osteoclasts.

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Very little is known of the regulation of the function of human osteoclasts, largely due to the virtual impossibility of obtaining human osteoclasts ex vivo.

Osteoclasts and hematopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yesBoneKEy Reports, 2012
The skeletal tissue is closely associated with the hematopoietic tissue lodged in its inner cavities. Besides the well-known role of the endosteal osteoblasts in the maintenance of the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niche, it is an emerging concept that osteoclasts are involved in the regulation of hematopoiesis as well, although published data are ...

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.

Osteoclast Fusion and Fission [PDF]

open access: yesCalcified Tissue International, 2012
Osteoclasts are specialized multinucleated cells with the unique capacity to resorb bone. Despite insight into the various steps of the interaction of osteoclast precursors leading to osteoclast formation, surprisingly little is known about what happens with the multinucleated cell itself after it has been formed.

Research progress in the differentiation and function of osteoclasts in the inflammatory microenvironment

open access: yesKouqiang hemian waike zazhi
Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing cells that play essential roles in both physiological bone remodeling and pathological bone resorption. Inflammation serves as a significant inducer of pathological bone resorption.
