## Abstract Fibroblast growth factorβ2 and parathyroid hormone are strong modulators of the maturation process of chondrocytes during endochondral ossification. To clarify whether and how these agents may exert stageβspecific effects during this process, we analyzed the responsiveness and phenotypi
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
