Osteoblast - Wikipedia
WEBOsteoblasts are cells that synthesize bone tissue from mesenchymal stem cells. They produce collagen, proteins and mineral in the organic matrix, and are involved in bone remodeling and osteoporosis.

WEBLearn how osteoblasts and osteoclasts work together to form new bone cells and break down old or damaged bone tissue. Find out what conditions and disorders can affect these cells and how to keep your bones healthy.
Osteoblast | bone formation, bone remodeling, bone metabolism
WEBOsteoblasts are cells that produce and mineralize bone matrix during bone formation and remodeling. They originate from osteogenic cells in the periosteum and endosteum, and secrete enzymes, growth factors, hormones, and collagen.

WEBSep 26, 2016 · Osteoblasts are bone-building cells of mesenchymal origin; they differentiate from mesenchymal progenitors, either directly or via an osteochondroprogenitor. The direct pathway is typical for intramembranous ossification of the skull and clavicles, while the latter is a hallmark of endochondral ossification of the axial skeleton and limbs.
