1 | Osteocalcin synthesis by human osteoblasts from normal and osteoarthritic bone after vitamin D3 stimulation. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
2 | In this study we correlated osteocalcin production from human osteoblasts isolated from healthy and osteoarthritic subjects to the degree of cartilage damage, before and after stimulation with 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D3, the active metabolite of vitamin D3. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
3 | We determined the osteocalcin production in normal and osteoarthritic osteoblasts from maximal and minimal cartilage damage areas both under basal conditions and after vitamin D3 stimulation. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
4 | The response of osteoblasts to vitamin D3 stimulation appeared to be proportional to the degree of joint damage, as the vitamin D3-induced increase in osteocalcin is proportionally greater in maximally damaged osteoblasts compared to minimally damaged ones. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
5 | The response of osteoblasts to vitamin D3 stimulation appeared to be proportional to the degree of joint damage, as the vitamin D3-induced increase in osteocalcin is proportionally greater in maximally damaged osteoblasts compared to minimally damaged ones. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
6 | Thus, after vitamin D3 stimulation, a significant increase in osteocalcin production by maximally damaged osteoblasts compared to the minimally damaged ones was observed. | Cholecalciferol | bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein | Homo sapiens |
