Expression and Function of Transmembrane-4 Superfamily (Tetraspanin) Proteins in Osteoclasts: Reciprocal Roles of Tspan-5 and NET-6 during Osteoclastogenesis

Background: Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing multinuclear polykaryons essential for bone remodeling, formed through cell fusion of mononuclear macrophage/monocyte lineage precursor cells upon stimulation by the RANK/RANKL system.Recent studies have revealed that a family of tetraspanin proteins, Retinol serum such as CD9, is critically involved in th
