OSTEOPROTEGERIN, RANK, RANKL [PDF]
Osteoprotegerin, RANK (Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor kappa B) and RANKL (Receptor Activator of Nuclear faktor kappa B ligand) became the aim of intensive research. RANK is considered as a hematopoietic surface receptor controlling osteoclastogenesis and calcium metabolism.

Substrate Stiffness Controls Osteoblastic and Chondrocytic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells without Exogenous Stimuli [PDF]
Stem cell fate has been linked to the mechanical properties of their underlying substrate, affecting mechanoreceptors and ultimately leading to downstream biological response.

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

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 ...

Research Models for Studying Vascular Calcification [PDF]
Calcification of the vessel wall contributes to high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Vascular calcification (VC) is a systemic disease with multifaceted contributing and inhibiting factors in an actively regulated process.

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 ...

Osteoprotegerin-dependent M cell self-regulation balances gut infection and immunity
Microfold cells (M cells) are responsible for antigen uptake to initiate immune responses in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT). Receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) is essential for M cell differentiation.

osteoprotegerin-deficient mice develop early onset osteoporosis and arterial calcification.
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a secreted protein that inhibits osteoclast formation. In this study the physiological role of OPG is investigated by generating OPG-deficient mice.

Aims: Osteoporosis is characterized by decreased trabecular bone volume, and microarchitectural deterioration in the medullary cavity. Interleukin-19 (IL-19), a member of the IL-10 family, is an anti-inflammatory cytokine produced primarily by ...
