The progressive ankylosis gene (__ank__) encodes a transmembrane protein that transports intracellular inorganic pyrophosphate (PP~__i__~) to the extracellular milieu. __ank__/__ank__ mice, which express a truncated nonfunctional ANK, showed a markedly reduced bone mass, bone-formation rate, and num
## Abstract Normal endochondral bone development requires the coordination of chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation. Indian hedgehog (Ihh) is a morphogen produced by chondrocytes in the early stage of terminal differentiation and plays several key roles in this process. Ihh regulates growth
We propose a mathematical model explaining the interactions between osteoblasts and osteoclasts, two cell types specialized in the maintenance of the bone integrity. Bone is a dynamic, living tissue whose structure and shape continuously evolves during life. It has the ability to change architecture
## Abstract The adipose tissue is the site of expression and secretion of a range of biologically active proteins, called adipokines, for example, leptin, adiponectin, and resistin. Leptin has previously been shown to be expressed in osteoblasts and to promote bone mineralization, whereas adiponect
