TLDR
This review has attempted to examine catabolism/remodeling in fractures in a systematic fashion by examining the cellular participants in soft callus remodeling and in particular the role of the osteoclast in endochondral ossification.

Inflammation, fracture and bone repair

TL;DR: In this review, a comprehensive summary of the literature related to inflammation and bone repair is provided, placing special emphasis on the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms, and potential interventions that can favorably modulate the outcome of clinical conditions that involve bone repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endogenous Bone Marrow MSCs Are Dynamic, Fate-Restricted Participants in Bone Maintenance and Regeneration

TL;DR: Osteoblastic cells are defined as short-lived and nonreplicative, requiring replenishment from bone-marrow-derived, Mx1(+) stromal cells with "MSC" features, representing a highly dynamic and stress responsive stem/progenitor cell population of fate-restricted potential that feeds the high cell replacement demands of the adult skeleton.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strategies for Controlled Delivery of Growth Factors and Cells for Bone Regeneration

TL;DR: The role of various regenerative factors involved in bone healing and their appropriate combinations with different delivery systems for augmenting bone regeneration are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone regeneration strategies: Engineered scaffolds, bioactive molecules and stem cells current stage and future perspectives.

TL;DR: This article reviews the different strategies to heal bone defects using synthetic bone graft substitutes, biologically active substances and stem cells, and discusses the remaining challenges that need to be addressed to significantly improve the healing of bone defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chondrocytes transdifferentiate into osteoblasts in endochondral bone during development, postnatal growth and fracture healing in mice.

TL;DR: Results show that both chondrocytes prior to initial ossification and growth plate chondROcytes before or after birth have the capacity to undergo transdifferentiation to become osteoblasts.

Bone Resorption by Osteoclasts

TL;DR: Osteopetrotic mutants have provided a wealth of information about the genes that regulate the differentiation of osteoclasts and their capacity to resorb bone.

MMP-9/Gelatinase B Is a Key Regulator of Growth Plate Angiogenesis and Apoptosis of Hypertrophic Chondrocytes

TL;DR: Transplantation of wild-type bone marrow cells rescues vascularization and ossification in gelatinase B-null growth plates, indicating that these processes are mediated by gelatinaseB-expressing cells of bone marrow origin, designated chondroclasts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Severely Suppressed Bone Turnover: A Potential Complication of Alendronate Therapy

TL;DR: The findings raise the possibility that severe suppression of bone turnover may develop during long-term alendronate therapy, resulting in increased susceptibility to, and delayed healing of, nonspinal fractures, and the need for increased awareness and monitoring.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular endothelial growth factor stimulates bone repair by promoting angiogenesis and bone turnover

TL;DR: The responses to exogenous VEGF observed in two distinct model systems and species indicate that a slow-release formulation of V EGF, applied locally at the site of bone damage, may prove to be an effective therapy to promote human bone repair.
