Abstract

BERTINI, K et al. Osteoimmunology: An Integrated Vision of Immune and Bone Systems. Novel Perspectives for Bone Diseases. Rev. argent. endocrinol. metab. [online]. 2014, vol.51, n.1, pp.25-29. ISSN 1851-3034.

As both the immune and hematopoietic cells originate in the bone marrow, it is not surprising that there should be an interaction between these two systems. While osteoblasts have the main capacity to influence differentiation and activation of osteoclasts, osteoblast-producing stromal cells, non-hematopoietic stromal cells, lymphocytes, interleukins and growth factors also affect bone cell function. Rev Argent Endocrinol Metab 51:25-29, 2014 No financial conflicts of interest exist.

Keywords : Bone turnover; Immune system.
