Permanent human osteosarcoma cell lines are important tools for the study of bone cancer. As representative of an osteoblastic phenotype, they partly reflect their normal osteoblastic counterparts and, thus, may represent appropriate models to investigate the mechanisms involved in bone remodelling

## Abstract Apolipoprotein E (apoE), a key regulator of lipid metabolism, is highly produced by adipose tissue and adipocytes. However, there is little information about its role on adipocyte functions. Because apoEβdeficiency in adipocytes was shown to impair adipocyte differentiation, we investig
## Abstract Accumulating evidences indicate that cyclooxygenase (COX)β2 plays an important role in tumorigenesis in many human cancers. Yet the relationship between COXβ2 and human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains unclear. The aim of our study was to evaluate COXβ2 expression in human RCC cell li
