1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) and prostaglandin E(2) act directly on circulating human osteoclast precursors.
1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) are known to influence osteoclast formation indirectly through their effects on osteoblasts. To determine whether 1, 25(OH)(2)D(3) and PGE(2) also have a direct effect on circulating osteoclast precursors, these factors wer...
