Abstract excerpt
Bone modeling is the central system controlling the formation of bone including bone growth and shape in early development, in which bone is continuously resorbed by osteoclasts and formed by osteoblasts. However, this system has not been well documented, because it is difficult to trace osteoclasts and osteoblasts in vivo during development. Here we showed the important role of osteoclasts in organogenesis by...
