Primary cultures of chick osteocytes retain functional gap junctions between osteocytes and between osteocytes and osteoblasts.
The inaccessibility of osteocytes due to their embedment in the calcified bone matrix in vivo has precluded direct demonstration that osteocytes use gap junctions as a means of intercellular communication. In this article, we report successfully isolating primary cultures of osteocytes from chick calvaria, and, using anti-connexin 43 immunocytochemistry, demonstrate gap junction distribution to...
متن کاملPlant receptor kinases: systemin receptor identified.
P lant growth and development are regulated by intrinsic growth regulators, as well as by both beneficial and detrimental environmental cues. Hormonal, environmental, or pathogenic signals are mostly perceived by membrane-localized receptors that transduce those signals inside plant cells to activate programs directing growth, development, and defense responses. In the fully sequenced Arabidops...
متن کاملOsteocytes as multifunctional cells.
Bone is often thought of as being a passive, inactive tissue like a skeleton hanging in the anatomy lab. Often, bone tissue is envisioned statically in terms of two dimensions similar to a 'shapshot' of a histology slide. However, quite to the contrary, bone undergoes considerable turnover as compared to other organs in the body. Modeling during growth is dramatic and even in adult bone, 2-5% t...
متن کاملIrisin and FNDC5 in retrospect
FNDC5 (fibronectin domain-containing [protein] 5) was initially discovered and characterized by two groups in 2002. In 2011 FNDC5 burst into prominence as the parent of irisin, a small protein containing the fibronectin type III domain. Irisin was proposed to be secreted by skeletal muscle cells in response to exercise, and to circulate to fat tissue where it induced a transition to brown fat. ...
متن کاملGlucocorticoid-Induced Autophagy in Osteocytes
Glucocorticoid (GC) therapy is the most frequent cause of secondary osteoporosis. In this study we have demonstrated that GC treatment induced the development of autophagy, preserving osteocyte viability. GC treatment resulted in an increase in autophagy markers and the accumulation of autophagosome vacuoles in vitro and in vivo promoted the onset of the osteocyte autophagy, as determined by ex...
