Bone Abstracts

Bone remodeling and maintenance require a fine balance between bone formation of osteoblasts and resorption of osteoclasts. Therefore, various skeletal disorders cause by imbalanced differentiation and activities of these cells. RANKL (receptor activator of NF-kB ligand) induces Ca2+ oscillations and activates NFATc1 (nuclear factor of activated T cells i) during osteoclast differentiation. Although Ca2+ oscillations play a key role for osteoclastogenesis...
