Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the mechanisms by which dexamethasone (Dex) affects osteoblast differentiation. This study demonstrated that Dex regulated osteoblast differentiation on the cell-differentiation stage dependent manner, and that MAP kinase and Jak-STAT signaling pathway were involved in the mechanisms for the Dex-regulated osteoblast differentiation.
