MBA-2, bone marrow-derived endothelial stromal cells, express platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) A and B chain mRNAs and secrete PDCF activity that is induced by TGF-beta. Either chain of the PDGF molecule could modulate hematopoiesis and stromal cell growth. lntracellular pathways that regulate

The bone morphogenetic proteins were originally identified based on their ability to induce ectopic bone formation in vivo and have since been identified as members of the transforming growth factor-@ gene superfamily. It has been well established that the bone morphogenetic cytokines enhance osteog
## Abstract In order to study osteoblast differentiation we subcloned a cell derived from a mouse a bone marrow stromal cell line, Kusa O, and obtained a number of clones representative of three different phenotypes. One that neither differentiated into osteoblasts nor into adipocytes, a second tha
## Abstract Although the effects of coumestrol on osteoblasts and osteoclasts can be summarized as increasing the bone density and preventing bone resorption, direct and detailed effects of coumestrol on bone marrow stromal cells remain obscure. In the present study, the effects of coumestrol on pr
Glucocorticoids inhibit the proliferation, but induce the differentiation, of bone marrow stromal cells into osteoblast-like cells. The mechanisms, however, are still conjectural. Since insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) have profound effects on osteoblast growth and differentiation, it is possible
