However, the role of osteocytes-mature bone cells derived from osteoblasts-in OI pathogenesis remains unclear. Specificity protein 7 (Sp7), encoded by Sp7 gene is an important transcription factor ...
Researchers have revealed that RANKL expressed by osteocytes is essential for the bone remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement. This result can facilitate the development of novel therapeutic ...
Bone mainly contains three types of cells: osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. The osteocytes are the most abundant cells comprising 95% of the total cell population in bone with an average half ...
BOSTON – Embedded within bone tissue are osteocytes, cells with tree-like projections called dendrites that are important for receiving communication from other cells. The loss of dendrites that ...

Palaeontologists have now analyzed the bone structures of 400 million-year-old fossils of marine life at unprecedentedly high resolution and in 3D. To be able to view these structures, tomography ...
Tokyo Medical and Dental University(TMDU) research team demonstrated that osteocytes have a crucial role in orthodontic tooth movement as the major source of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ...
