The V-ATPase complex is composed of two domains: the peri-membranous V1 domain composed of subunits A to H responsible for the hydrolysis of ATP shown in blue, and the intramembranous V0 domain who allows the translocation of protons across the membrane shown in purple in the diagram. The V0 domain is composed of the subunits a, e, d and of a hexameric ring formed by subunits c, c′ and c″. |date=2021-02-26 |source= ht...

Illustration of the unique configuration and membrane organization of an osteoclast during active bone resorption. The osteoclast’s specialized plasma membrane domains are labeled and color-coded: Purple = the functional secretory domain, Orange = the basolateral membrane, Yellow = the sealing zone and Green = the ruffled border membrane.

21:38, 5 December 2024 Key mediators of osteoblast-osteoclast interaction.png (file) 502 KB {{Information |description=Figure 2. Key mediators of osteoblast-osteoclast interaction. Osteoblast-osteoclast communications are essential for fine-tuning of bone remodeling during bone homeostasis. (1) Osteoblasts and osteoclasts have direct contacts through the interactions between EFNB2-EPHB4, FAS-FASL and NRP1-SEMA3A to regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. (2) Osteoclast-mediated bone resorption releases TGF-β and IGF-1 from bone matrix to induce osteoblast-mediate...

(a) Osteoclastogenesis. Osteoclasts are tissue-specific macrophages derived from hematopoietic stem cells. In the presence of M-CSF, hematopoietic stem cells are committed to macrophage colony-forming units (CFU-M), the common precursor cells of macrophages and osteoclasts. When activated by the RANKL-RANK signal, CFU-M is further differentiated into mononucleated osteoclasts and subsequently fuse to...
