摘要

Bone-resorbing cells, osteoclasts (OCs), and antigen-presenting cells, dendritic cells (DCs), share several features. They are derived from a common hematopoietic precursor, exhibit phagocytic activities and their functions are dependent upon receptor activator of nuclear factor KB ligand (RANKL). Upon inflammatory conditions, DCs can transdifferentiate toward functional OCs in the presence of RANKL. It has then been assumed that the increase in proinflammatory cytokines could provide a supportive environment for this transdifferentiation. In this review, we emphasize the molecular mechanisms underlying the potential for DCs to give rise to resorbing OCs in the context of bone-destruction associated diseases upon inflammatory conditions. Whether these mechanisms reveal new strategies for the discovery of therapeutic targets and drugs is discussed extensively.
