osteoblasts large, granular cells, can't undergo mitosis, found on surface of bone form bone, secrete the osteoid: collagen, proteoglycans, glycoproteins. Osteoblast are cuboidal mononuclear bone cells 15-30 Âµm in length, which form a contiguous monolayer over the surface of bone. They are derived from marrow stromal cells by differentiation of pre-osteoblasts and not themselves undergo mitosis.
Since Rodan and Martin proposed thecontrol of osteoclasts by osteoblasts in the 1980s, manyfactors have been isolated from osteoblasts and shown toregulate the differentiation and function of osteoclasts.However, the mechanism by which osteoblasts regulateosteoclasts during bone remodelling is still unclear.
