Abstract excerpt
In our search for molecules involved in the process of osteoclast differentiation, we examined the surface phenotypes of the preosteoclast-like cells and osteoclast-like multinucleated cells (MNCs) formed in bone marrow cultures, using monoclonal antibodies recognizing different antigen molecules...
