The multifunctional serine protease thrombin has been shown to be a specific agonist for a variety of functional responses of cells including osteoblasts. The current study was conducted to determine if thrombin was capable of inhibiting apoptosis in osteoblasts, and if so, to examine the mechanism by which this occurred. Thrombin (20-100 nM) significantly inhibited apoptosis in serum-starved cultures...
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) stimulates new bone formation when administered locally in vivo. The extracellular matrix protein tenascin-C, which is secreted by osteoblasts but absent from mineralized bone matrix, supports differentiation of cultured osteoblast-like cells. The current study was undertaken to determine whether expression patterns of tenascin-C in TGF-β-treated bone cells are...
