Osteoblasts are needed to create bone. Osteoclasts destroy bone.
bone
The dermis means "skin". These cells are bone building (osteoblasts) and bone breaking down (osteclasts) and would not be found in the skin but in bone tissue.
Osteoblasts are most common in the same places you would find an abundance of osteoblasts. This is most often at sites of new bone growth.
Osteoblasts.
No, osteocytes don't mature into osteoblasts. Osteoblasts mature into osteocytes.
Osteoblasts mature into osteocytes.
Osteoprogenitor cells differentiate into osteoblasts. Osteoblasts develop osteocytes.
Osteoblasts
Osteoclasts (Osteo - bone, clast - make or create)
The cells that build bone are called OSTEOBLASTS.
The cell type that is responsible for bone matrix is the Osteoblast. Osteoblast's form a protein mixture known as osteoid, which materializes to become bone. They also manufacture hormones to act on the bone itself.
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
