Glucocorticoids, notably dexamethasone (Dex), have been reported to be a requirement for osteoprogenitor cell differentiation in young adult rat bone marrow stromal cell populations. We have reinvestigated the requirement for Dex and analyzed the frequency of osteoprogenitor cells present. Stromal c
## Abstract Cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix are key factors regulating cell survival, differentiation, and response to environmental stimuli in cartilagenous tissues. Much is known about the extracellular matrix proteins in the intervertebral disc (IVD) and their variations with
Human osteoblasts express a repertoire of cadherins, including N-cadherin (N-cad), cadherin-11 (C11), and cadherin-4 (C4). We have previously shown that direct cell-cell adhesion via cadherins is critical for BMP-2induced osteoblast differentiation. In this study, we have analyzed the regulation of
## Abstract Periodontal ligament (PDL) is a thin fibrous connective tissue located between two mineralized tissues, alveolar bone and cementum, which maintains a constant width physiologically. The mechanisms by which PDL resists mineralization are not well understood. Twist is a basic helix loop h
## Abstract The study investigated whether chronic ethanol (ETH) intake and subsequent ETH exposure of cell cultures affects osteoblast differentiation by evaluating key parameters of __in vitro__ osteogenesis. Rats were treated with 5β20% (0.85β3.43 mm) ETH, increasing by 5% per week for a period
