## Abstract Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), a member of the Cyr 61, CTGF, Nov (CCN) family of proteins, regulates multiple cellular functions. Overexpression of CTGF in vivo causes osteopenia, but in vitro CTGF can induce osteoblastogenesis. To investigate mechanisms involved in the effects

## Abstract The present study was performed to examine the effect of the high concentration of extracellular calcium ([Ca^2+^]~e~) on osteoclast‐like cell formation and bone‐resorbing activity in the presence or absence of osteoblasts. High [Ca^2+^]~e~ (3 and 5 mM) significantly stimulated osteocla
