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

RANK ligand and the regulation of skeletal remodeling [PDF]
It has long been known that estrogen deficiency in animal models and postmenopausal women is associated with increased osteoclastic bone resorption and bone loss (1–5). In the past decade, several important discoveries of some of the key factors involved in osteoclast formation, survival, function, and regulation by estrogen have been made. A number

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

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.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Statistical Potential for Modeling and Ranking of Protein–Ligand Interactions [PDF]
Applications in structural biology and medicinal chemistry require protein-ligand scoring functions for two distinct tasks: (i) ranking different poses of a small molecule in a protein binding site and (ii) ranking different small molecules by their complementarity to a protein site.
