proliferative effect on the cells.Low concentration alcohol can promote cell autophagy,inhibit intracellular oxidative stress levels,reduce apoptosis of osteoclast precursor cells,promote osteoclast

and LAP atypical autophagy pathways,thereby increasing the autophagy level of osteoclast precursor cells,and icariin has inhibitory effects on both pathways.(4)High concentration of KN-93((10-2M---10-1M))inhibits the proliferation of osteoclast precursor cells.When the concentration is controlled at 10-3M,it has no effect on cell proliferation.When the protein level of Ca MK II is inhibited,The RUBICON protein will be enhanced,and there may be a competitive relationship between the two.When typical autophagy is inhibited,the atypical autophagy LAP pathway will be enhanced,thereby maintaining the balance and stability of cellular autophagy. |
