Osteoclast progenitors promote bone vascularization and osteogenesis

Preosteoclasts give rise to bone-resorbing osteoclasts, which are crucial for skeletal homeostasis. A study now shows that preosteoclasts also contribute to bone formation by releasing platelet-derived growth factor-BB, which promotes bone vascularization and osteogenesis.
