This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last twenty years, different discoveries have emphasized the cross-talk between bone and immune cells as well as their common regulatory pathways. Indeed, soluble molecules produced by immune cells modulate the behavior of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Moreover, osteoclasts, the bone-resorbing cells, originate from the same myeloid precursor cells that differentiated into macrophages and myeloid dendritic cells. Whereas, the bone-forming osteoblastic cells control hematopoietic stem cell niches and thus immune cell ontology. The amplified recognition of the complex relationship between the immune system and bone led to the designation of osteoimmunology field. This Research Topic collects articles that highlight the cross-talk between bone and immune cells,

Download or read book Osteoimmunology written by Yongwon Choi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has only recently been appreciated that the immune and skeletal systems have major interactions. It is now well documented that osteoclasts, which are important cellular mediators of skeletal homeostasis, are derived from hematopoietic precursors that also give rise to immune cells. In addition, numerous cytokines that were first shown to regulate immune cell function have also been demonstrated to regulate bone cells and influence skeletal health. Conversely, products of bone cells appear critical for the engraftment of marrow in bone, the normal development of the hematopoietic and immune systems and provide niche for long-term memory B and T cells. In the past scientists involved in immune and bone cell investigations have rarely interacted in a significant way as these disciplines have developed independently and, for the most part, remain separate. The conference will bring together leading international scientists from both fields to interact so that new collaboration can develop and more rapid progress in understanding the relationships between these fields can be achieved. Short talks will be selected from abstracts from the international community. This conference will have a format to provide an environment of maximum interaction and interchange through lectures, posters, and open discussion.

  • Release : 2010-09-24
  • ISBN : 9780123756718
  • Pages : 470 pages

Download or read book Osteoimmunology written by Joseph Lorenzo and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-09-24 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bone and the immune system are both complex tissues, which, respectively, regulate the skeleton and the body's responses to invading pathogens. Critical interactions between these two organ systems frequently occur, particularly in the development of immune cells in the bone marrow and for the function of bone cells in health and disease. This book provides a detailed overview of the many ways that bone and immune cells interact. The goal is to provide basic and clinical scientists with a better understanding of the role that the immune system and bone play in the development and function of each other so that advances in both fields will be facilitated. The focus of the book will be both on basic pathways and translational science, which will apply basic knowledge to clinical diseases. Chapter content will range from basic descriptions of the various cell systems and their development to the signals that cause them to interact during normal physiology and disease. This is a rapidly developing area that is of interest to a wide spectrum of researchers, students, and fellows in immunology, rheumatology, hematology, and bone biology--all of whom need to develop a more complete understanding of their previously separate disciplines and the mechanisms by which they interact. Presents a comprehensive, translational source for all aspects of osteoimmunology in one reference work Experts in bone biology and immunology (from all areas of academic and medical research) take readers from the bench research (cellular and molecular mechanism), through genomic and proteomic analysis, all the way to clinical analysis (histopathology and imaging) and new therapeutic approaches. Clear presentations by bone biologists of the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying bone cell development leading to bone and immunological diseases such as Lupus Clear presentations by immunologists of how immune cells develop and how the immune system plays a role in bone diseases like osteoporosis and arthritis

Download or read book Biomaterials and Immune Response written by Nihal Engin Vrana and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interactions of the biomaterials with the host immune system is crucial for their functionality. This book aims to provide the reader with a better understanding of the role of the immune system in biomaterial applications. For this end, the book has dedicated chapters for i) explaining immune cells taking part in immune response to biomaterials/immune systems interface; ii) the effect of biomaterial shape, form and physicochemical properties on the response of immune system; iii) biofilm formation on implanted materials as a failure of immune system/biomaterial interactions; iv) tissue-specific effects of immune response and its consequences for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine; v) immune reaction in a clinical context (periodontology). In the field of biomaterials there are significant advances in using immunomodulation techniques to improve the success rates of implantable materials. For better understanding of such techniques it is required to have a full grasp of the biomaterial–immune system interactions. This would greatly enhance the understanding of why the human body reacts to implants in a certain way and how to improve the clinical outcomes by developing immune-instructive biomaterials. Provides keen insight into biomaterial–immune cell interactions Presents an explanation of state-of-the-art methodologies in immunomodulation Offers a concise and simple-to-understand treatment of biomaterial–immune cell interactions for materials scientists in a biology heavy topic Explores a comprehensive overview of biomaterial related complications Provides extensive references at the end of each chapter to enhance study for this very hot research area

Book Pathophysiology of Bone and Mineral Metabolism

Download or read book Pathophysiology of Bone and Mineral Metabolism written by Juan Miguel Díaz Tocados and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-03-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bone is the principal store for calcium and phosphate and one of the main regulators of mineral metabolism. The principal cells involved in bone remodeling are osteocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which maintain a precise equilibrium of bone mass. However, there are many factors that can affect bone and mineral homeostasis such as inadequate diet, microbiota alterations or aging. Furthermore, pathological conditions such as renal diseases, genetic disorders, obesity or inflammatory diseases can also potentially affect bone homeostasis, compromising bone health and leading to fractures and complications. Thus, integration of the mechanisms involved in mineral and bone alterations is key to understand bone physiology and its endocrine functions.
