Acute hypoxia and osteoclast activity: a balance between enhanced resorption and increased apoptosis.
Osteoclasts are the primary mediators of pathological bone resorption in many conditions in which micro-environmental hypoxia is associated with disease progression. However, effects of hypoxia on human osteoclast activity have not been reported. Mature human osteoclasts were differentiated from per...
