Physiologic mineralization is necessary for the formation of skeletal tissues and for their
appropriate functions during adulthood. Mineralization has to be controlled and restricted to …

THE MECHANISMS BY WHICH MINERALIZED TISSUES such as bone acquire and
regulate their mineral component are complex. The process of mineralization can be divided …

Mineralization is an essential requirement for normal skeletal development, which is
generally accomplished through the function of two cell types, osteoblasts and chondrocytes …

Biomineralization is a multifactorial and complex process, which results in the deposition of
mineral crystals in the extracellular matrix of various tissues. Physiological mineralization is …

Purpose of review: Disturbed mineralization may cause a decrease in bone mass, leading to
an enhanced occurrence of bone fractures, in addition to an unwanted pathological …

In normal healthy individuals, mineral formation is restricted to specialized tissues which
form the skeleton and the dentition. Within these tissues, mineral formation is tightly …

Recent published studies have demonstrated that the biological mineralization process is
regulated by a variety of factors. Recent findings from many laboratories clearly indicate that …

Mineralized “hard” tissues of the skeleton possess unique biomechanical properties to
support the body weight and movement and act as a source of essential minerals required …

Skeletal cells control the initiation of mineralization in vivo and determine the selective
distribution pattern of mineralization by releasing calcification-initiating, submicroscopic …
