Pleural mesothelioma is an asbestos-related malignancy characterized by progressive local growth, late metastases, and median survivals between 8 and 18 months. It is only recently that the in vitro and in vivo characteristics of the malignancy has been investigated. These investigations have been a

## Abstract The effect of metallic chelating agents (EDTA, EGTA) on cartilage metabolism was studied both in vitro, on calf cartilage, and in vivo, in rabbits. The question asked was whether it was possible to affect neutral protease activity, and not also inhibit beneficial synthetic systems. In v
## Abstract C3H10T1/2/__Osx__, a stably transfected cell line with __Osterix__ (__Osx__), was produced and chondrocytic and osteoblastic differentiation were studied __in vitro__. Osx promoted osteoblastic lineage that was dexamethasone dependent. Furthermore, __in vivo__, Osx induced ectopic miner
Interleukin-1b-converting enzyme (ICE) is a cysteine protease responsible for proteolytic activation of the biologically inactive interleukin-1b precursor to the proinflammatory cytokine. ICE and homologous proteases also appear to mediate intracellular protein degradation during programmed cell dea
## Abstract Oxysterols, naturally occurring cholesterol oxidation products, can induce osteoblast differentiation. Here, we investigated shortβterm 22(S)βhydroxycholesterolβ+β20(S)βhydroxycholesterol (SS) exposure on osteoblastic differentiation of marrow stromal cells. We further explored oxystero
