FBXW2 localizes with osteocalcin in bovine periosteum on culture dishes as visualized by double immunostaining

Osteocalcin (OC) is a well-known protein related to bone, however, the role of F-box and WD-40 domain-containing protein 2 (FBXW2) in bone remains unclear. In 2016, the presence of FBXW2 in bovine periosteum was reported. In this study, double immunostaining was used to investigate the relationship...

Sumario:Osteocalcin (OC) is a well-known protein related to bone, however, the role of F-box and WD-40 domain-containing protein 2 (FBXW2) in bone remains unclear. In 2016, the presence of FBXW2 in bovine periosteum was reported. In this study, double immunostaining was used to investigate the relationship between OC and FBXW2. FBXW2 showed tubular structures, and OC showed a similar localization pattern as FBXW2. Double immunostaining findings suggested that FBXW2 tubes were coated with OC. To the author's knowledge, this is the first study to reveal the interaction between OC and FBXW2.
