This chapter describes the isolation, culture, and staining of osteoclasts. The key advantages of this assay are that it allows direct measurement of osteoclast number, bone resorption, as well as yielding good quantities of osteoclasts at defined stages of formation for molecular analysis. An additional focus of this chapter will be the generation of osteoclasts from less conventional animal species and cell lines.

Abstract
This chapter describes the isolation, culture, and staining of osteoclasts. The key advantages of this assay are that it allows direct measurement of osteoclast number, bone resorption, as well as yielding good quantities of osteoclasts at defined stages of formation for molecular analysis. An additional focus of this chapter will be the generation of osteoclasts from less conventional animal species and cell lines.File in questo prodotto:
