• bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells cultured with M-CSF and RANKL exhibit a smaller number of multinucleated osteoclasts and area covered by multinucleated osteoclasts compared with similarly treated wild-type cultures
|
• bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells cultured with M-CSF and increasing concentration of RANKL exhibit an increase in multinucleated osteoclasts but a smaller area covered by multinucleated osteoclasts compared with similarly treated wild-type cultures
|
• bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells cultured with M-CSF and RANKL exhibit decreased surface area covered by osteoclasts and resorptive activity compared with similarly treated wild-type cultures
|
• mice exhibit a slight increase in bone volume to trabecular volume compared with wild-type mice
|
• mice exhibit a decrease in trabecular space compared with wild-type mice
|
• mice exhibit an increase in trabecular number
|
• bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells cultured with M-CSF and RANKL exhibit reduced resoprtion pits on calcium phosphate-coated discs compared with similarly treated wild-type cultures
• however, high concentrations of RANKL restores normal numbers of resorption pits
