Abstract
Our data seem to indicate that osteoblast-like cells may contain two different fractions of TRACP, one that is released by monocytes and subsequently endocytosed by osteoblast-like cells and a second endogenous fraction that is present in an inactive proform. We hypothesize that the capacity of osteoblast-like cells to endocytose TRACP is important for the removal of this enzyme during or following the bone resorptive activity of the osteoclast.
