Investigating Precursor Spatial Organization in Osteoclastogenesis Using DNA-Directed Cell Patterning.
Osteoclasts are large, multinucleated cells in the bone marrow that are of macrophage lineage and are responsible for bone resorption. Disruption of osteoclast differentiation or resorption activity can cause a broad spectrum of skeletal diseases ranging from osteoporosis to cancer-associated bone loss. Despite their k...
