Abstract excerpt
Bone remodeling is precisely controlled by bone formation and bone resorption, and osteoblasts are responsible for both processes. Osteoblasts exhibit an osteoclastogenic phenotype in response to elevated intracellular cyclic AMP [cAMP]i levels. However, the role of cAMP in osteoblasts acquiring an osteogenic phenotype is controversial. To elucidate the effect of cAMP on both phenotypes, an osteoblast-like cell...
