Isolation of primary avian osteocytes [PDF]
, 2012 Osteocytes can be isolated from chicken calvaria using mild EDTA treatment alternating with collagenase treatment. The cell population obtained contains both osteoblasts and osteocytes. A pure population of osteocytes is obtained following immunomagnetic

Primary cultures of chick osteocytes retain functional gap junctions between osteocytes and between osteocytes and osteoblasts [PDF]
, 2008 The inaccessibility of osteocytes due to their embedment in the calcified bone matrix in vivo has precluded direct demonstration that osteocytes use gap junctions as a means of intercellular communication.

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2010 Abstract The last decade has provided a virtual explosion of data on the molecular biology and function of osteocytes. Far from being the “passive placeholder in bone,” this cell has been found to have numerous functions, such as acting as an orchestrator of bone remodeling through regulation of both osteoclast and osteoblast activity ...

Isolation and purification of osteocytes [PDF]
Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 1992 Abstract An isolation method for osteocytes is described. After removal of the periostea, bone cells were isolated from calvariae of 18-day-old chicken embryos by alternating treatments with collagenase and EDTA. Osteocytes were purified from the heterogeneous bone cell population with the help of the osteocyte-specific MAb OB 7.3 bound ...

Identification of mechanics-responsive osteocyte signature in osteoarthritis subchondral bone
Bone & Joint Research, 2022 Aims: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease. The osteocyte transcriptome is highly relevant to osteocyte biology. This study aimed to explore the osteocyte transcriptome in subchondral bone affected by OA.

A continuous model for the embedment of osteocytes in bone matrix [PDF]
, 2014 The formation of new bone involves both the deposition of bone matrix and the formation of a network of cells embedded within it, called osteocytes. Osteocytes are essential to the detection of micro-damage and to the control of bone renewal.

CHARACTERISTICS AND PROPERTIES OF OSTEOCYTES IN CULTURE [PDF]
, 1994 Although the osteocyte is the most abundant among the highly differentiated cells of mature bone (osteocytes, lining cells, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts), its properties and functions are the least known and understood.

The Effect of Osteocyte Signalling on Osteocyte Apoptosis [PDF]
Proceedings of Surabaya International Physiology Seminar, 2017 Abstract: Background: Physical exercise has been known that is one of the ways to evoke mechanical stimulation that can cause the change of the “strain”. The “strain” itself allows the converted mechanical signal to be a biochemistry that can produce a biological response to bone cells.

Osteocytes as a record of bone formation dynamics: A mathematical model of osteocyte generation in bone matrix [PDF]
, 2015 The formation of new bone involves both the deposition of bone matrix, and the formation of a network of cells embedded within the bone matrix, called osteocytes.

The roles of osteocytes in alveolar bone destruction in periodontitis
Journal of Translational Medicine, 2020 Periodontitis, a bacterium-induced inflammatory disease that is characterized by alveolar bone loss, is highly prevalent worldwide. Elucidating the underlying mechanisms of alveolar bone loss in periodontitis is crucial for understanding its pathogenesis.
