) ratio of osteocytes was shifted toward OPG after Mo treatment. Cellular effects are most likely caused by the presence of molybdate anions. In summary, Mo extracts stimulated early bone healing factors involved in osteogenesis, vascularization, and mineralization, while osteoclastogenesis was inhibited. These dual effects in vitro provide mechanistic evidence supporting the potential of Mo as a growth factor-free bone replacement material and establish a cellular foundation for further preclinical development.
