An osteocyte, a star-shaped type of bone cell, is the most commonly found cell in mature bone tissue, and can live as long as the organism itself.[1] The adult human body has about 42 billion osteocytes.[2] Osteocytes have an average half life of 25 years, they do not divide, and they are derived from osteoprogenitors, some of which differentiate ...
An osteocyte, a star-shaped cell, is the most commonly found cell in mature bone, and can live as long as the organism itself. Osteocytes have an average half life of 25 years, they do not divide, and they are derived from osteoprogenitors, some of which differentiate into active osteoblasts.hey are the most common cell type in bone (31,900 mm-3 in bovine bone to 93,200 mm-3 in rat bone). Most of the receptor activities that play an important role in bone function are present in the mature osteocyte.
