title: Beta 3 subunit of vitronectin receptor is present in osteoclast adhesion structures and not in other monocyte-macrophage derived cells.
abstract: The distribution of extracellular matrix receptors in human osteoclasts has been studied; a beta 3 integrin is colocalized with vinculin and talin in the podosomes of osteoclastoma giant cells and not in macrophages from the same source.
