Abstract

An intracellular pathway for proteins liberated from mineralized matrix during resorption was identified in osteoclasts. Analysis by confocal microscopy of sites of active bone resorption showed that released matrix proteins, including degraded type I collagen, were endocytosed along the ruffled border within the resorption compartment and transcytosed through the osteoclast to the basolateral membrane. Intracellular trafficking of degraded collagen, as typified by the resorbing osteoclast, may provide the cell with a regulatory mechanism for the control of tissue degradation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
