Abstract
⺠Farnesoid X receptor (FXR, NR1H4) is expressed in BMSC and SaOS2 osteoblast-like cells. ⺠FXR agonists increase osteoblastic differentiation through RUNX2 activation. ⺠Bisphosphonates inhibit basal osteoblastic differentiation possibly through suppression of endogenous FXR agonist production. ⺠FXR antagonist interferes with osteoblastic differentiation and stimulates the expression of adipose tissue markers. ⺠FXR may be involved in the modulation of the osteoblast/adipocyte balance.
