Potential roles of the proteins in osteoclastogenesis. This figure depicts how CMCs migrate from blood vessels to bone surface and activate into bone-resorbing osteoclasts. The major process, on which the proteins may exert their effects, was indicated by arrows. Plus sign means stimulate, minus sign means inhibit. ↓↑ Up- or downregulation in low BMD samples; CMCs; monocyte; monocyte committed to osteoclast differentiation; multinucleate cell; mature osteoclast; and active osteoclast.
