Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: We studied osteoclastic differentiation from normal and osteopetrotic human CD14 cells in vitro. Defects in acid transport, organic matrix removal, and cell fusion with deficient attachment were found. Analysis of genotypes showed that TCIRG1 anomalies correlated with acid transport defects, but surprisingly, organic matrix removal failure correlated with CLCN7 defects; an attachment defect had normal...
