The supplier does not provide quotations for this product through SelectScience. You can search for similar products in our Product Directory.
We offer the following cell lines for studying bone growth and development:
- IDG-SW3 Bone Cell Line: replicates osteoblast to late osteocyte differentiation in vitro and increases bone formation in vivo
- Murine Osteocyte-like Cell Line MLO-Y4: useful for studying the effects of fluid flow and substrate stretching on the activation of osteocyte-specific signaling pathways; offers high expression of osteocalcin, connexin 43 and the antigen E11
- Murine Osteocyte-like Cell Line MLO-A5: model for osteoblast-to-osteocyte differentiation, the mineralization process and the effects of mechanical loading on biomineralization; expresses various markers of the late osteoblast
All come from the laboratory of Dr. Lynda F. Bonewald at the University of Missouri - Kansas City.
