Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of osteoblast proliferation. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate or extent of osteoblast proliferation. The multiplication or reproduction of cells, resulting in the expansion of a cell population. The multiplication or reproduction of osteoblasts, resulting in the expansion of an osteoblast cell population. An osteoblast is a bone-forming cell which secretes an extracellular matrix. Hydroxyapatite crystals are then deposited into the matrix to form bone. Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of osteoblast proliferation.
