An improved metrics for osteoclast multinucleation

Cell-cell fusion is a key stage in development and maintenance of multinucleated cells that resorb bones and form our skeletal muscles and placenta. Here, we focus on osteoclast formation to suggest new ways of unbiased presentation of cell fusion at given conditions that combine empirical cumulative distribution function for the sizes of multinucleated cells with the total number of cell-cell fusion events, which generate these cells.
