Influence of Vanadium 4+ and 5+ Ions on the Differentiation and Activation of Human Osteoclasts

Background. In the pathophysiology of implant failure, metal ions and inflammation-driven osteoclasts (OC) play a crucial role. The aim of this study was to investigate whether vanadium (V) ions induce differentiation of monocytic OC precursors into osteoresorptive multinucleated cells. In addition,...
