Tunnels in the rock: Dynamics of osteocyte morphogenesis

Yasaman Moharrer et al.

Summary: Osteocytes are dynamic bone matrix-remodeling cells that form an intricate network through the bone matrix, known as the lacunar-canalicular system; during osteocytogenesis and development, osteocytes must remodel their cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix; current understanding of osteocyte differentiation, cytoskeletal morphogenesis, mechanotransduction, and matrix remodeling is still evolving and new tools and approaches make this an exciting time to study these remarkable cells.

Quantitative Evaluation of Osteocyte Morphology and Bone Anisotropic Extracellular Matrix in Rat Femur

Takuya Ishimoto et al.

Summary: The relationship between osteocytes and extracellular matrix orientation remains unclear, but a significant positive correlation was found between the anisotropic features of osteocyte lacunae and canaliculi and the degree of ECM orientation along the femur longitudinal axis.

Runt-related transcription factor-2 (Runx2) is required for bone matrix protein gene expression in committed osteoblasts in mice

Xin Qin et al.

Summary: The study revealed the crucial role of Runx2 in the expression of major bone matrix protein genes and Tnfsf11 after commitment into osteoblasts in mice, and its deficiency may lead to dwarfism and reduced bone mass in mice.

Disrupted osteocyte connectivity and pericellular fluid flow in bone with aging and defective TGF-β signaling

Charles A. Schurman et al.

Summary: Skeletal fragility in the elderly is not solely due to bone mass loss, with osteocytes playing a key role in bone aging. The degeneration of the lacunocanalicular network may lead to compromised mechanostimulation of osteocytes, highlighting them as potential targets for age-related therapeutic interventions to improve bone health.
