, 2010
Osteocytes are well evidenced to be the major mechanosensor in bone, responsible for sending signals to the effector cells (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) that carry out bone formation and resorption. Consistent with this hypothesis, it has been shown that

Identification of metabolites from peroxisomal beta-oxidation of prostaglandins.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1990
We have recently shown that isolated rat liver peroxisomes can chain-shorten prostaglandin F2 alpha and prostaglandin E2 to tetranor-metabolites. In the present report dinor-metabolites of these two prostaglandins were also identified, suggesting that ...
