text: Several lines of evidence have now established a key for osteocytes in the regulation of bone remodelling.12 ,13 Osteocytes are the most abundant cell type in bone and are distributed throughout the mineralised bone matrix forming an interconnected network that ideally positions them to sense and to respond to local and systemic stimuli to regulate bone remodelling and adaptation.
