【摘要】 破骨细胞的骨吸收活动与成骨细胞的骨形成活动相互作用调节,形成一种特殊的耦联机制,影响骨骼生长、发育及正常骨组织结构的维持.最近几年提出的Eph/ephrin双向信号转导在骨吸收与骨形成耦联中的研究越来越受到关注.从Eph/ephrin分子结构、信号转导机制及生物学意义等几方面对该理论作一阐述.更多还原

【Abstract】 Osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoblastic bone formation are coordinated as a coupled mechanism to effect the development of bone and to maintain bone homeostasis. Recently reported Eph/ephrin bidirectional signaling between osteoclasts and osteoblasts plays a pivol role in bone homeostasis and casts new light on coupling of bone resorption and bone formation, which is gaining more and more attention in researches of bone biology and bone diseases. The present article aims to address the researches on the Eph/ephrin bidirectional signaling between osteoblasts and osteoclasts with molecular constitution, mechanism of the signal transduction, biological significance and so on.更多还原
