## Abstract Osteoblast differentiation is a key aspect of bone formation and remodeling. To further our understanding of the differentiation process, we have developed a collection of conditionally immortalized adult human osteoblast cell lines representing discrete stages of differentiation. To ev

## Abstract Runx2, osterix, and Ξ²βcatenin are essential for osteoblast differentiation. Runx2 directs multipotent mesenchymal cells to an osteoblastic lineage, and inhibits them from differentiating into the adipocytic and chondrocytic lineages. After differentiating to preosteoblasts, Ξ²βcatenin, o
## Abstract Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are critical regulators of cellular phosphorylation functioning in processes such as cell growth, differentiation, and adhesion. Osteotesticular PTP (OST) is the only characterized member of this superfamily whose expression is regulated in osteoblas
The adipocyte is now known to play an active role in many physiological and pathological processes regarding energy metabolism. Consideration of adipose tissue as an endocrine organ that secretes a variety of unrelated bioactive molecules has broadened our appreciation of adipocyte function to excee
