Abstract excerpt
Icariin, the major ingredient of Herba Epimedii, promotes the osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) and exerts protective effects against bone loss and increases bone regeneration, but the underlying signaling pathway by which icariin affects osteogenic differentiation remain unclear. Transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) is a transcriptional modulator of the...
