Concise Review: Embryonic Stem Cells: A New Tool to Study Osteoblast and Osteoclast Differentiation
9 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
Bone remodeling involves synthesis of organic matrix by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts. A tight collaboration between these two cell types is essential to maintain a physiological bone homeostasis. Thus, osteoblasts control bone-resorbing activities and are also involved in osteoclast differentiation. Any disturbance between these effectors leads to the development of skeletal abnormalities and/or...
