The Possible Role of Neutrophils in the Induction of Osteoclastogenesis by Carolyn G. J. Moonen, Teun J. de Vries, Patrick Rijkschroeff, Patrice E. Poubelle, Elena A. Nicu, Bruno G. Loos

“…The ligand of the receptor activator of NF-κB (RANKL) is a key molecule in the formation of osteoclasts, the key cells that cause the disease-associated alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis. We hypothesized that polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), found as the most prominent cells of inflamed periodontal tissues, could play an important role in providing signals to trigger osteoclastogenesis and thus activating pathological bone resorption in periodontitis. …”
