<h4>Objective</h4>Prothrombin (PT) and osteopontin (OPN) promote adhesion of bone-derived tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP, Acp5)-positive multinucleated cells differing in size, morphology, and resorptive activity. Here we explored phenotypic and functional differences between these cells.<h4>Materials and methods</h4>Global-wide and TRAP (Acp5) promoter messenger RNA expression, ability for phagocytosis, macrophage colony-stimulating factor-dependent migration, and in situ localizatio ...[more]
