The Role of Osteocyte Apoptosis on Osteoclast Precursor Recruitment
Osteocytes (resident bone cells) are believed to sense loading-induced interstitial fluid flow in bone and transduce the signals to osteoclasts (bone resorption cells) and osteoblasts (bone formation cells) to regulate bone remodeling. Recent studies have shown that bone disuse causes osteocyte apop...
