Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 3. Osteoclast differentiation derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells from controls and DS patients. (A) An area of osteoclasts developed in a culture in the presence of MCSF + RANKL and MCSF + RANKL + chemerin. (B) The number of osteoclast cells according to the type of medium added in sequence. Each step of the sequence was cultured in 3 distinct wells for each subject analyzed. The final result is the average sum of controls and patients. (C) The appearance of the osteoclast cells developed in a culture supplemented with MCSF + RANKL and (D) MCSF + RANKL + chemerin in a DS subject. Osteoclasts must have 3 or more nuclei. * p < 0.05. Abbreviations: MCSF, macrophage colony-stimulating factor; RANKL, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand; DS, Dunnigan syndrome.
Article Snippet: These monocytes were cultured in 3 × 3 wells in 96-well plates with α-MEM containing 10% FBS added sequentially in triplets with 25 ng/mL of human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (MCSF) (R&D systems, catalog 216-MCC, Minneapolis, MN, USA), 25 ng/mL of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) (R&D systems, catalog 390-TN, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and 50 ng/mL of chemerin (R&D systems, catalog 2324-CM, Minneapolis, MN, USA) to stimulate osteoclasts.
