The effects of Zeolite A on bone resorbing activity of highly purified avian osteoclasts were analyzed. The present study demonstrates that when 100 pg/ml of acid-treated Zeolite A is added to the media the number of pits per osteoclast is reduced 3-fold at 24 h after treatment. Secreted cathepsin B

Production of superoxide radicals by osteoclasts is necessary for normal bone degradation. White blood cell superoxide, needed for bacterial killing, is produced by activated NADPH oxidase. Since osteoclasts and white blood cells share a common hematopoietic origin, we initiated experiments to test
Bartholomew's Medical College (E.D./ M.A. H.) London, United Kingdom Colony stimulating factors (CSFs) regulate the survival, proliferation and differentiation of haernopoietic progenitor cells, as well as the functional activity of mature cells. Because the osteoclast is derived from haemopoietic t
## Abstract We confirmed the expression of cathepsin K, the most abundant and specific cysteine protease found in osteoclasts, at the mRNA level in most of our cases of breast cancer, and even at the protein level in bone metastatic lesions. Therefore, we investigated the functions of cathepsin K i
## Abstract We examined the effects of longβterm bisphosphonate (BP, pamidronate) administration at a therapeutic dose (1.5 mg/kg/day) on the distribution, structure, and vacuolarβtype H^+^βATPase expression of osteoclasts, and the resulting trabecular bone volume and structure in ovariectomized (O
