    Improved methods for testing antiresorptive compounds in human osteoclast cultures

    We cultured human bone marrow-derived stem cells on bovine bone slices in 96-well plates in the presence of M-CSF and RANKL, allowing them to differentiate into osteoclasts. Secreted TRACP 5b was a useful endp...

    Short-Term Changes in Serum PINP Predict Long-Term Changes in Trabecular Bone in the Rat Ovariectomy Model

    Serum procollagen I N-terminal propeptide (PINP) is a sensitive bone formation marker in humans. We have developed a nonradioactive immunoassay for rat PINP and studied PINP as a bone formation marker in the r...
