Resum

Background: Recent studies have suggested osteocytes as key players in mechanosensation and skeletal metabolism. Results: Simulated microgravity induces an autonomous up-regulation of SOST/sclerostin and RANKL/OPG in a novel osteocytic cell line, Ocy454. Conclusion: Mechanical loading regulates intrinsic osteocyte responses in concert with hormonal and cytokine inputs. Significance: Learning how osteocytes sense mechanical loads would enable novel interventions to prevent disuse-induced bone loss.
