Research Abstract |
We previously reported that osteoclast precursors were detected as RANK-positive cells in bone tissues. RANK-positive cells were observed in bone tissues in RANKL-/- mice, but not in c-Fos-/- mice. c-Fos, but not RANKL, is required for the up-regulation of RANK in osteoclast precursors. Then, we analyzed the mechanism of c-Fos-mediated up-regulation of RANK in osteoclast precursors. Our results suggest that c-Fos plays essential roles not only in RANKL-induced formation of osteoclasts but also in M-CSF-induced formation of osteoclast precursors.
