Abstract excerpt
In most circumstances, NF-kappaB, which is essential for osteoclastogenesis, is activated following serine 32/36 phosphorylation of its cytosolic inhibitory protein, IkappaBalpha. In contrast to other cell types, IkappaBalpha, in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs), which are osteoclast precursors, is tyrosine-phosphorylated by c-Src kinase. To address the role of IkappaBalpha phosphorylation in osteoclastogenesis, we...
