Osteoblasts (from the Greek combining forms for "bone", ὀστέο-, osteo- and βλαστάνω, blastanō "germinate") are cells with a single nucleus that synthesize...

bone rigidity. Bone tissue is made up of different types of bone cells. Osteoblasts and osteocytes are involved in the formation and mineralisation of bone;...

some of which differentiate into active osteoblasts (which may further differentiate to osteocytes). Osteoblasts/osteocytes develop in mesenchyme. In mature...

by the RUNX2 gene. RUNX2 is a key transcription factor associated with osteoblast differentiation. It has also been suggested that Runx2 plays a cell proliferation...

glands, it is also expressed elsewhere in the body, specifically in the osteoblast, which is responsible for making new bone, a continual and highly regulated...

inactive, osteoblast are at peak activity. Likewise, at pH 6.9 osteoblast activity is non-existent. The hormone estrogen is also important for osteoblast regulation...

stem cell, or MSC, is an unspecialized cell that can develop into an osteoblast. Before it begins to develop, the morphological characteristics of a MSC...

remodeling is the process of laying down new bone material by cells named osteoblasts. It is synonymous with bone tissue formation. There are two processes...

cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types, including osteoblasts (bone cells), chondrocytes (cartilage cells), myocytes (muscle cells)...

of the bone matrix that forms prior to the maturation of bone tissue. Osteoblasts begin the process of forming bone tissue by secreting the osteoid as...

promoting calcium retention in the kidney, and by directly stimulating osteoblast differentiation and bone mineral formation. The combination of fixed-dose...

research on osteoblast (bone-forming cells) response to hydroxyapatite doped with divalent and trivalent cations showed that osteoblast adherence and...

mineralized matrix is penetrated by microvessel and numerous osteoblasts. The osteoblasts form new lamellar bone upon the recently exposed surface of the...

progenitor ( z {\displaystyle z} ), osteoblast ( y {\displaystyle y} ), and chondrocyte ( x {\displaystyle x} ). Pro-osteoblast stimulus promotes P→O transition...

performing essentially as stem cells—could then redifferentiate into osteoblasts and adipocytes. Each specialized cell type in an organism expresses a...

miR-764-5p sequence is upregulated during osteoblast differentiation in both skull-specific calvarial and osteoblast progenitor cells. The channel-forming...

mesenchymal stem cells) can differentiate into various cell types, including osteoblasts. From least- to terminally-differentiated, the chondrocytic lineage is:...

Periostin (POSTN, PN, or osteoblast-specific factor OSF-2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POSTN gene. Periostin functions as a ligand for...

ultimate target of bone growth factors are osteoblasts, osteoclasts and fibroblasts. Human fibroblasts and osteoblasts were shown to be capable of producing...

PTHrP produced by osteoblasts is a physiological regulator of bone formation. Martin and Miao et al. demonstrated that osteoblast-specific ablation of...

compression while staying lightweight. Most cells in bones are either osteoblasts, osteoclasts, or osteocytes. Bone tissue is a type of dense connective...

highly cellular containing progenitor cells that develop into osteoblasts. These osteoblasts are responsible for increasing the width of a long bone (the...

Similarly to A2A receptor, the A2B receptor promotes osteoblast differentiation. The osteoblast cell is derived from the Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) which...

origin was popular, which stated that osteoclasts and osteoblasts are of the same lineage, and osteoblasts fuse together to form osteoclasts. After years of...

Osteoblast milk protein (OMP, Chinese: 造骨牛奶蛋白) is the name used by Mengniu, a Chinese dairy company, for a milk protein used as a food additive in their...

periosteal surface. During bone growth, the width of the bone increases as osteoblasts lay new bone tissue at the periosteum. To prevent the bone from becoming...

space in the ring of osteoblasts, and eventually fills the bony matrix. After the bone is completely ossified, the osteoblasts retract their calcium...

Chondrocytes are found in cartilage and produce the cartilaginous matrix. Osteoblasts are responsible for bone formation. The ECM can exist in varying degrees...
