Humoral Regulation of Osteoclasts and Their Role in Bone Resorption

open access: yesEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2008
Osteoclasts are derived from the macrophage haematopoietic lineage, resemble monocyte-like phagocytic cells, and are involved in bone resorption. The cells of the bone and the immune system communicate by cytokines and growth factors.

Monosodium L-glutamate affects orthodontic outcomes by inhibiting hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis function

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Background: Orthodontic treatment involves complex bone remodeling, with the Osteoprotegerin (OPG)/Receptor Activator of nuclear factor Kappa-B Ligand (RANKL)/Receptor activator of nuclear factor Kappa-B (RANK) (OPG/RANKL/RANK) signaling pathway ...

Direct and indirect regulation of bone metabolism by lactoferrin

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
Lactoferrin exerts positive regulation on bone metabolism through both direct and indirect pathways. Directly, it modulates osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and chondrocytes via factors such as insulin-like growth factor (IGF), low-density lipoprotein receptor ...

Increased osteoclastic activity in acute Charcot's osteoarthopathy: the role of receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand.

open access: yesEuropean review for medical and pharmacological sciences, 2010
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Our aims were to compare osteoclastic activity between patients with acute Charcot's osteoarthropathy and diabetic and healthy controls, and to determine the effect of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) and its decoy receptor osteoprotegerin (OPG).

Expressions of Osteoprotegerin and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa-B Ligand in Alveolar Bone Socket under Low Plasma Estrogen Level Condition [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences University, 2017
Background: Decreasing of estrogen level can lead to alveolar bone loss. This bone loss reflects an imbalance between resorption and apposition. Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa-B Ligand (RANKL) is a key mediator in osteoclast activation ...
