I do not like to use this valuable resources as a substitute for a
litterature search however given the complexities of doing a proper
efficient search (on the subject below) combined with all of the expertise
on this list I would like to take the liberty of asking the following
question.

has anyone heard of or had any experience in the detection of bone cells
(preferably osteoclasts) in the peripheral circulation?

any personal experience or reference would be most welcomed.

thank you

mo.
