RANK Ligand: Effects of Inhibition

Current Oncology Reports, 2010
Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B-cells (RANK) and its ligand (RANKL) belong to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily. RANK mRNA is expressed widely in bone and bone marrow. It has a significant role in stimulating osteoclast differentiation and maturation, and also in preventing apoptosis.

Role of RANK Ligand and Denosumab, a Targeted RANK Ligand Inhibitor, in Bone Health and Osteoporosis: A Review of Preclinical and Clinical Data

Clinical Therapeutics, 2012
Postmenopausal osteoporosis results from bone loss and decreased bone strength mediated by an increased rate of bone remodeling secondary to reduced estrogen levels. Remodeling cycles are initiated by osteoclasts, the formation, function, and survival of which depend on RANK ligand (RANKL).

RANK ligand inhibition with denosumab for the management of osteoporosis

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2006
Receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) is a cytokine member of the tumour necrosis factor family that is the principal final mediator of osteoclastic bone resorption. It plays a major role in the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis, as well bone loss associated with rheumatoid arthritis, metastatic cancer, multiple myeloma ...
