The Bone-specific Expression of Runx2 Oscillates during the Cell Cycle to Support a G1-related Antiproliferative Function in Osteoblasts
22 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
The Runx2 (CBFA1/AML3/PEBP2alphaA) transcription factor promotes skeletal cell differentiation, but it also has a novel cell growth regulatory activity in osteoblasts. We addressed here whether Runx2 activity is functionally linked to cell cycle-related mechanisms that control normal osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. We found that the levels of Runx2 gene transcription, mRNA and protein, are each...
