Osteoimmunology in 2014: Two-faced immunology—from osteogenesis to bone resorption

Nature Reviews Rheumatology 11, 74 (2015). doi:10.1038/nrrheum.2014.219 Author: Hiroshi Takayanagi Even though activation of immunity is associated with bone destruction, new mechanisms have been described in 2014 through which immunology-associated pathways can cooperate to support osteogenesis. These advances support the view of the immune system as a central mechanism which can regulate bone homeostasis, regeneration and destruction.
