Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming growth factor beta is a bifunctional regulator of replication and collagen synthesis in osteoblast-enriched cell cultures from fetal rat bone.
TL;DR: Results support that TGF beta is an important and multifunctional autocrine regulator of bone formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth factors and the regulation of bone remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin-like growth factor I mediates selective anabolic effects of parathyroid hormone in bone cultures.
TL;DR: Continuous treatment with PTH inhibits calvarial collagen, whereas transient treatment stimulates collagen synthesis, and the stimulatory effect is mediated by local production of IGF I.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming Growth Factor-β Gene Family Members and Bone*
TL;DR: Several of the closely related TGF-β isoforms occur in many animals, and appear to control development, growth, and differentiation in humans as well as a variety of other species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulatory Effects of Insulin-Like Growth Factors I and II on Bone Collagen Synthesis in Rat Calvarial Cultures
TL;DR: In conclusion, IGF-I and -II increase bone collagen synthesis and decrease collagen degradation in cultures of intact calvariae; the effect on collagen synthesis correlates with an increase in transcript levels in Ob cells.
