Strontium ranelate (SrRan) is an efficient treatment for osteoporosis, because SrRan both inhibits osteoclasts and stimulates osteoblastic bone formation. We have previously shown that SrRan also affects mouse osteocyte signaling towards osteoclast precursors and mature osteoblasts. This study assessed the effect of SrRan on paracrine signaling from mechanically-stimulated human osteocytes towards mesenchymal stem cells.Human primary bone cells, used as ...
