Osteoimmunology : Meeting Report from the 31 st Annual Meeting of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research September 11 - 15 , 2009 in Denver , Colorado
Osteoimmunology is a new discipline that studies the crosstalk between the immune system and bone. This definition can be broad or narrow. While many osteoimmunologists focus on RANKL/RANK signaling pathways in monocytes, cells integral to immunity, this report will present a sampling of the broader aspect of the role of immune cells and immune mechanisms in the regulation of bone turnover in h...
متن کاملOsteoimmunology and Beyond
OBJECTIVE Osteoimmunology investigates interactions between skeleton and immune system. In the light of recent discoveries in this field, a new reading register of osteoporosis is actually emerging, in which bone and immune cells are strictly interconnected. Osteoporosis could therefore be considered a chronic immune mediated disease which shares with other age related disorders a common inflam...
متن کاملCrosstalk between Tumor Cells and Immune System Leads to Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Induction and Breast Cancer Progression
Herein, we review the current findings of how a variety of accessory cells could participate in shaping the tumor microenvironment and supporting the mechanisms by which cancer cells undertake the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT, a complex of phenotypic changes, promotes cancer cell invasion and creates resistance to chemotherapies. Among the accessory cells present in the EMT, imm...
متن کاملOsteoimmunology: The Nexus between bone and immune system.
Osteoimmunology is an interdisciplinary research field which combines the existing fields of osteology (bone biology) and immunology under one umbrella. The observation that contributed enormously to the emergence of osteoimmunology as an independent field of investigation was the enhanced bone loss in various inflammatory bone diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and periodontit...
متن کاملOsteoimmune Interactions in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Central Role of Bone Marrow Th17 TNFα Cells in Osteoclastogenesis
Osteoimmunology is an interdisciplinary research field dedicated to the study of the crosstalk between the immune and bone systems. CD4(+) T cells are central players in this crosstalk. There is an emerging understanding that CD4(+) T cells play an important role in the bone marrow (BM) under physiological and pathological conditions and modulate the differentiation of bone-resorbing osteoclast...
