## Abstract While the roles of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling in regulation of cell growth, proliferation, and survival have been well documented in various cell types, its actions in osteoblasts are poorly understood. In this study, we determined the effects of rapamycin, a spe

During bone loss, osteoblast population can be replaced by adipose tissue. This apparent reciprocal relationship between decreased bone density and increased fat formation can be explained by an imbalance in the production of bone-forming and fat-forming cells in the marrow cavity. Thus, osteoblast
Estrogens as well as some antiestrogens have been shown to prevent bone loss in postmenopausal women. These compounds seem to inhibit bone resorption, but their anabolic effects have been less explored. In this study, bone marrow cultures were used to compare the effect of 17β€-estradiol (E2), and tw
## Abstract Dexamethasone is capable of directing osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in vitro, but its effects are not lineageβspecific, and sustained exposure has been shown to downβregulate collagen synthesis and induce maturation of an adipocyte subpopulation withi
