Lipopolysaccharide- TLR-4 Axis regulates Osteoclastogenesis independent of RANKL/RANK signaling
Background Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an endotoxin and a vital component of gram-negative bacteria’s outer membrane. During gram-negative bacterial sepsis, LPS regulates osteoclast differentiation and activity, in addition to increasing inflammation ...

Dysregulated RANK Ligand/RANK Axis in Hyperhomocysteinemic Subjects [PDF]
Background and Purpose— Homocysteine has been linked to increased risk of ischemic stroke and other cardiovascular events. Matrix degradation and inflammation play an important role in these disorders, and we have demonstrated increased levels of matrix-degrading enzymes and inflammatory cytokines in

Evaluation of the effect of topical and systemic ozone application in periodontitis: an experimental study in rats [PDF]
Objective: The goal of the present study was to determine the effect of systemic and topical ozone application on alveolar bone loss (ABL) by evaluating the effect of Hypoxia-inducible factor −1 alpha (HIF-1-α) and receptor activator of NF-kB ligand ...

RANK Ligand and Osteoprotegerin [PDF]
In 1997, investigators isolated a secreted glycoprotein that blocked osteoclast differentiation from precursor cells, prevented osteoporosis (decreased bone mass) when administered to ovariectomized rats, and resulted in osteopetrosis (increased bone mass) when overexpressed in transgenic mice.

Eribulin mesylate induces bone mass loss by promoting osteoclastic bone resorption in mice
Over the past few decades, the clinical outcomes of patients with cancer have significantly improved mostly owing to the development of effective chemotherapeutic treatments. However, chronic health conditions such as bone mass loss and risk of fragility

Osteoclasts are the sole bone resorbing cells, which undertake opposing roles to osteoblasts to affect skeletal mass and structure. However, unraveling the comprehensive molecular mechanisms behind osteoclast differentiation is necessitated to overcome ...

Self-Assembled RANK Induces Osteoclastogenesis Ligand-Independently
Abstract By immunoprecipitation assay, we showed that mouse RANK was self-assembled through its cytoplasmic domain located at position 534–539, whose domain was different form TRAF binding domains. Moreover, overexpression experiments showed that oligomeric RANK, which was self-associated, induced osteoclastogenesis ligand-independently.

Receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (RANK)/RANK-ligand (RANKL) signaling regulates the tumor-immune crosstalk. Here the authors show that systemic RANKL inhibition promotes CD8 + T cell infiltration in patients with early breast cancer and that loss ...

RANK and RANKL Expression in Salivary Gland Tumors
Objectives: The pathogenesis and molecular basis of salivary gland tumors (SGT) are not well understood. We investigated the expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK) and RANK ligand (RANKL) in benign and malignant SGTs and their ...
