Figure 2 Increased osteoclast fusion in cells from TRAF3f/f; CSK-Cre mice.
Bone marrow mono-nuclear cells from control mice (TRAF3f/f) and TRAF3f/f; CSK-Cre mice were cultured with M-CSF for 2 d and then treated with RANKL for additional 2 d. Photos show multi-nuclear mature osteoclasts (arrows) in cells from TRAF3f/f; CSK-Cre mice. TNF: Tumor necrosis factor; TRAF: TNF receptor-associated factors; M-CSF: Macrophage colony-stimulating factor.
