Abstract
We describe the culture and use of MLO-Y4 cells in studies of gene expression, response to fluid flow, and dendrite growth. We also describe how to use the MLO-A5 cells as a model of osteoblast to osteocyte -differentiation and how to study their mineralization. These studies serve as a beginning point to study osteocyte functions and molecular mechanisms responsible for these functions.Mesh：
