Isolation of human osteoclasts formed in vitro: hormonal effects on the bone-resorbing activity of human osteoclasts.
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells that carry out bone resorption. Analysis of the direct effect of hormones on the bone-resorbing activity of human osteoclasts has been limited by difficulties in isolating these cells from the human skeleton. In this study, human osteoclasts formed from cultures...
