21. Some of the osteoblasts develop into osteocytes , each living within its own small space, or bone remodeling. 22. The osteocyte is still a mysterious cell biologists still have not figured out the true function of the osteocyte. 23. The osteocyte is still a mysterious cell biologists still have not figured out the true function of the osteocyte . 24. Insulin-like growth factors are created by cells such as osteoblasts, osteocytes , and bone lining cells. 25. The globular osteocyte lacunae become more flattened as you get closer and closer to the midshaft of the humerus. 26. The majority of the current data supports the concept that bone mass is controlled by LRP5 through the osteocytes . 27. Osteocytes , which are cells critical for maintaining bone health, die off in women who cease making the hormone.28. Osteocytes generate an inhibitory signal that is passed through their cell processes to osteoblasts for recruitment to enable bone formation.29. One function of the osteocyte might be the remodeling of the bone through growths of new arms on the cell. 30. When the osteoblast is transformed into an osteocyte , the transformation causes the osteocyte to lose a majority of its organelles.
