| OCSTAMP | Osteoclast stimulatory transmembrane protein; Probable cell surface receptor that plays a role in cellular fusion and cell differentiation. Cooperates with DCSTAMP in modulating cell-cell fusion in both osteoclasts and foreign body giant cells (FBGCs). Involved in osteoclast bone resorption. Promotes osteoclast differentiation and may play a role in the multinucleated osteoclast maturation (By similarity). (566 aa) | ||||
| PTH | Parathyroid hormone; PTH elevates calcium level by dissolving the salts in bone and preventing their renal excretion. Stimulates [1-14C]-2-deoxy-D- glucose (2DG) transport and glycogen synthesis in osteoblastic cells. (115 aa) | ||||
| NMBR | Neuromedin-B receptor; Receptor for neuromedin-B. (390 aa) | ||||
| NMB | Neuromedin-B-32; Stimulates smooth muscle contraction in a manner similar to that of bombesin; Belongs to the bombesin/neuromedin-B/ranatensin family. (154 aa) | ||||
