Osteoclast Precursor Cells

Osteoclast Precursor Cells is a population of hematopoietic progenitor cells belonging to the monocyte-macrophage lineage that are committed to the osteoclastic lineage and possess the capacity to differentiate into multinucleated, bone-resorbing osteoclasts upon stimulation by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF).
