It is known that Wnt/β-catenin signaling induces endochondral ossification and plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA). Sclerostin is a potent inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Genetic evidence that SOST inhibits WNT signaling in the limb [PDF]
SOST is a negative regulator of bone formation, and mutations in human SOST are responsible for sclerosteosis. In addition to high bone mass, sclerosteosis patients occasionally display hand defects, suggesting that SOST may function embryonically.

Role of bone-anabolic agents in the treatment of breast cancer bone metastases [PDF]
Skeletal metastases are an incurable complication afflicting the majority of patients who die from advanced breast cancer. They are most often osteolytic, characterized by net bone destruction and suppressed new bone formation. Life expectancy from first

Reversal of loss of bone mass in old mice treated with mefloquine [PDF]
Aging is accompanied by imbalanced bone remodeling, elevated osteocyte apoptosis, and decreased bone mass and mechanical properties; and improved pharmacologic approaches to counteract bone deterioration with aging are needed.

Osteocyte isolation and culture methods. [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to present several popular methods for in vitro culture of osteocytes and osteocyte cell lines. Osteocytes are located extremely suitably within the calcified bone matrix to sense mechanical signals, and are equipped with a ...

The role of sclerostin in knee osteoarthritis and its relation to disease progression
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease especially in aging population and is characterized by progressive degeneration of articular cartilage, osteophyte formation, and subsequent joint space narrowing.
