     summary: The role of peroxiredoxin-1 in cell differentiation and proliferation suggests that it has a possible role in growth and development. HSF-2 plays an important role in FGF-2 stimulated osteoclast formation, and HSF-2 deficiency was found to modulate gene expression in stromal/ preosteoblast cells and affect osteoclastogenesis in the bone microenvironment (18) .
