Mouse Osteocyte-like Cell Line-MLO-Y4

Product Overview

Mouse Osteocyte-like Cell Line-MLO-Y4 was derived from transgenic mice expressing an immortalizing T-antigen under the control of the osteocalcin promoter. Osteocytes are the most abundant bone cells in the body, yet they are also the most challenging to study because they are embedded within a mineralized matrix, making them difficult to isolate. The MLO-Y4 cell line facilitates easier research into osteocyte function. It can be used to investigate the effects of fluid flow and matrix strain on the activation of osteocyte-specific signaling pathways.
