Title: Lysophosphatidic acid induces osteocyte dendrite outgrowth

Journal Article · · Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 357(1):194-199

A method was developed to measure dendrite formation in bone cells. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) was found to stimulate dendrite outgrowth. It is postulated that LPA plays a role in regulating the osteocyte network in vivo.
