Osteocyte Remodeling of the Lacunar-Canalicular System: What’s in a Name?
Purpose of ReviewOsteocytes directly modify the bone surrounding the expansive lacunar-canalicular system (LCS) through both resorption and...
-
Osteocytes and Primary Cilia
Purpose of ReviewThe purpose of this review is to provide a background on osteocytes and the primary cilium, discussing the role it plays in...

Changes in the intra- and peri-cellular sclerostin distribution in lacuno-canalicular system induced by mechanical unloading
IntroductionMechanical stimuli regulate Sclerostin (Scl), a negative regulator of bone formation, expression in osteocytes. However, the detailed Scl...
