Value of osteoprotegerin, RANKL, interleukin-17 in mechanisms of bone metabolism disorders
The relationship between osteoprotegerin, RANKL and interleukin-17 inthe mechanisms of abnormal remodeling of bone tissue during experimental periodontitis was studied in this work. Increased levels of RANKL and pro-inflammatory IL-17 were found, as well

Mathematical modelling of the pathogenesis of multiple myeloma-induced bone disease [PDF]
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common haematological malignancy and results in destructive bone lesions. The interaction between MM cells and the bone microenvironment plays an important role in the development of the tumour cells and MM ...

Mechanisms by which sialylated milk oligosaccharides impact bone biology in a gnotobiotic mouse model of infant undernutrition [PDF]
Undernutrition in children is a pressing global health problem, manifested in part by impaired linear growth (stunting). Current nutritional interventions have been largely ineffective in overcoming stunting, emphasizing the need to obtain better ...
