Osteocyte function, osteocyte death and bone fracture resistance
The function of the most numerous cell in bone, the osteocyte, has until recently been mysterious and at times controversial. There is now an emerging consensus that osteocytes modulate signals arising from mechanical loading and so direct the appearance and disappearance of bone tissue at the microscopic level, which allows bone as an organ both to ...

Osteogenic‐angiogenic cross‐talk is a vital prerequisite for vascularized bone regeneration. In this study, we investigated the effects of siRNA‐mediated silencing of two inhibitory proteins, Chordin and WWP‐1, via CaP‐NP‐loaded gelatin microparticles in osteogenically differentiated microtissues.

Engineered microparticle topographies direct human mesenchymal stem cell osteogenesis without biochemical additives. This osteogenic commitment is driven by canonical Hedgehog signaling and followed by temporal IGF‐II engagement. Two‐photon polymerization demonstrates spatial control, enabling the engineering of topographical gradients that pattern ...

Osteocyte Signaling in Bone [PDF]
Osteocytes, the cells residing within the bone matrix and comprising 90% to 95% of the all bone cells, have long been considered quiescent bystander cells compared to the osteoblasts and osteoclasts whose activities cause bone gain and loss, and whose dysfunction lead to growth defects and osteoporosis. However, recent studies show that osteocytes play

Though osteoporosis is a significant cause of disability worldwide, treatment with pharmacologic agents decreases risk of fragility fracture. Though these treatments act through the bone remodeling system to improve bone mass, it is unclear if they alter

Osteocytes express parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related protein (PTHrP) receptors and respond to the PTHrP analog abaloparatide (ABL) and to the PTH 1-34 fragment teriparatide (TPTD), which are used to treat osteoporosis.

Irisin Prevents Disuse‐Induced Osteocyte Apoptosis
Previous results showed that intermittently administered irisin improves bone mass in normal mice and prevents the development of disuse‐induced osteoporosis and muscular atrophy in hindlimb‐suspended mice, a murine model able to mimic the absence of ...
