Abstract excerpt
While the spatial activity of osteoblasts has been associated with modeling of bones during development, few studies have examined if variation in the spatial activity of osteoclasts also contributes to the morphogenesis of skeletal tissues. We examined this question by histomorphometric analysis and reconstructing the three-dimensional spatial distribution of osteoclasts in the femora of three inbred strains of...
