Description

BACKGROUND: mir-RNAs play a role in regulating bone homeostasis. In this study we assessed the functional role of mir-RNA 150 in bone homeostasis. We also assess the effects of miR-150 deficiency on osteoblast and osteoclast differentiation and function using in vivo and in vitro approaches. METHODS: Wild type (WT) (C57BL/6J) and miR-150 KO mice were compared for a variety of parameters. Micro-CT imaging was conducted to quantify trabecular bone mass inferior to the distal growth plate of the femur. Von Kossa staining was performed for osteoblast culture mineralization.
