physiological function | Dyrk2 down regulation promotes osteoclast fusion, whereas its overexpression inhibits fusion. Dyrk2 knockdown increases the number of nuclei in osteoclasts. Dyrk2 also promotes the fusion of foreign-body giant cells. Dyrk2 limits the expansion of multinucleated founder cells through the suppression of the fusion competency of follower cells | Homo sapiens |
