FGF-7 Dictates Osteocyte Cell Processes Through Beta-Catenin Transduction
Abstract It is well recognized that osteocytes communicate with each other via gap junctions and that connxin43 (Cx43) shows its great potential in gap junction for the contribution enabling transmission of small molecules and operating in an autocrine/a paracrine manner. Fibroblast growth factors (...
