Research Abstract |
We investigated the role of fibrinolyitic system in bone metabolism. We obtained the results as follows : 1.Bone marrow cells derived from knockout mouse of urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor have a more potency of calcification compared with those derived from wild type mouse. 2.In highly active fibrinolysis, bone density in femur is high while bone density in low active fibrinolysis is low. 3.Bone marrow cells derived from knockout mouse of plasminogen have a more potency of osteoclastic activity compared with those derived from wild type mouse.
