Osteocyte mitochondria regulate angiogenesis of transcortical vessels

open access: yesNature Communications
Transcortical vessels (TCVs) provide effective communication between bone marrow vascular system and external circulation. Although osteocytes are in close contact with them, it is not clear whether osteocytes regulate the homeostasis of TCVs.

Aging, Osteocytes, and Mechanotransduction [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Osteoporosis Reports, 2017
The bone is able to adapt its structure to mechanical signals via the bone remodeling process governed by mechanosensitive osteocytes. With aging, an imbalance in bone remodeling results in osteoporosis. In this review, we hypothesized that changes in lacunar morphology underlie the decreased bone mechanoresponsiveness to mechanical loading with aging ...

Quantitative Evaluation of Osteocyte Morphology and Bone Anisotropic Extracellular Matrix in Rat Femur

open access: yesCalcified Tissue International, 2021
Osteocytes are believed to play a crucial role in mechanosensation and mechanotransduction which are important for maintenance of mechanical integrity of bone.

Osteocyte mitochondria inhibit tumor development via STING-dependent antitumor immunity

open access: yesScience Advances
Bone is one of the most common sites of tumor metastases. During the last step of bone metastasis, cancer cells colonize and disrupt the bone matrix, which is maintained mainly by osteocytes, the most abundant cells in the bone microenvironment. However,

Isolation and culture of primary osteocytes from the long bones of skeletally mature and aged mice

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2012
The purpose of this work was to establish a methodology to enable the isolation and study of osteocytes from skeletally mature young (4-month-old) and old (22-month-old) mice.

The RIP1-RIP3 Complex Mediates Osteocyte Necroptosis after Ovariectomy in Rats. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Osteocyte apoptosis has been reported to play a central role in bone remodeling. In addition to apoptosis, other mechanisms may be involved in osteocyte loss. This study aimed to investigate the effect of necroptosis on osteocytes in ovariectomized (OVX)

Osteocytes Enhance Osteogenesis by Autophagy-Mediated FGF23 Secretion Under Mechanical Tension

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Mechanical stimuli control cell behaviors that are crucial for bone tissue repair. Osteocytes sense extracellular mechanical stimuli then convert them into biochemical signals to harmonize bone remodeling.

Osteocyte lacunar strain determination using multiscale finite element analysis

open access: yesBone Reports, 2020
Osteocytes are thought to be the primary mechanosensory cells within bone, regulating both osteoclasts and osteoblasts to control load induced changes in bone resorption and formation.

Osteocytes and Skeletal Pathophysiology [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Molecular Biology Reports, 2015
For many years, osteocytes have been the forgotten bone cells and considered as inactive spectators buried in the bone matrix. We now know that osteocytes detect and respond to mechanical and hormonal stimuli to coordinate bone resorption and bone formation.

A 3D Bioprinted Spheroid‐Laden dECM‐Enriched Osteosarcoma Model for Enhanced Drug Testing and Therapeutic Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D biomimetic OS model was developed by bioprinting an OS‐cell‐derived dECM‐enriched bioink with OS spheroids incorporated. The model showed upregulation of known OS prognostic markers and increased resistance to doxorubicin, compared to 2D cultures and scaffold‐free spheroids, making this a more clinically relevant platform for drug discovery ...
