Osteoclasts are responsible for bone resorption and play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of osteolytic disorders. NF-kappaB is a set of nuclear factors that bind to consensus DNA sequences called kappaB sites, and is essential for osteoc...

Bone remodelling is regulated by osteogenic cells which act individually through cellular and molecular interaction. These interactions can be established either through a cell-cell contact, involving molecules of the integrin family, or by...

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is characterized by the development of fibrotic plaques in the arterial wall. The disease exhibits a complex aetiology and its progression is influenced by a number of environmental and...
The dual role of IL-6-type cytokines on bone remodeling and bone tumors [0.03%]
白细胞介素-6型细胞因子在骨重建和骨肿瘤中的双重作用

Many factors such as vitamins, hormones and cytokines, control bone metabolism and remodeling. Cytokines of the interleukin-6 family, by acting on bone cells (i.e. osteoblasts and osteoclasts), have an important role in the bone tissue but ...
