PKCĪ“ regulates bone formation in a direct and indirect manner. The direct pathway is dependent on osteogenesis. The endogenous PKCĪ“ in hBMSCs strongly stimulates the RUNX2 activity, thereby facilitating RUNX2-mediated osteogenic differentiation. The indirect pathway is independent on osteogenesis, which includes the potential negative regulation of adipogenic differentiation.
