FGF-23 and sclerostin in serum and bone of CKD patients
Aims: Renal osteodystrophy occurs in the early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and progresses during loss of kidney function. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 and sclerostin, both produced by osteocytes, are increased in blood of patients with ...

The downregulation of sclerostin in osteocytes mediates bone formation in response to mechanical cues and parathyroid hormone (PTH). To date, the regulation of sclerostin has been attributed exclusively to the transcriptional downregulation of the Sost ...

Rationale: Sclerostin inhibition demonstrated bone anabolic potential in osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) mice, whereas humanized therapeutic sclerostin antibody romosozumab for postmenopausal osteoporosis imposed clinically severe cardiac ischemic events ...

Sclerostin: clinical insights in muscle–bone crosstalk
Sclerostin, a protein encoded by the sclerostin (SOST) gene, is mostly expressed in osteocytes. First described in the pathogenesis of three disorders, sclerosteosis, van Buchem’s disease, and craniodiaphyseal dysplasia, sclerostin has been identified as

Osteocyte TSC1 promotes sclerostin secretion to restrain osteogenesis in mice [PDF]
Osteocytes secrete the glycoprotein sclerostin to inhibit bone formation by osteoblasts, but how sclerostin production is regulated in osteocytes remains unclear.

Sclerostin is a bone formation inhibitor produced by osteocytes. Although sclerostin is mainly expressed in osteocytes, it was also reported in periodontal ligament (PDL) fibroblasts, which are cells that play a role in both osteogenesis and ...

Inhibitors of sclerostin [PDF]
Recent data suggest that inhibitors of sclerostin, an osteocyte-produced Wnt signaling pathway antagonist, can stimulate bone formation. This review provides rationale and summarizes recent evidence supporting this novel approach to skeletal anabolism.Data from numerous preclinical models in rodents and monkeys consistently demonstrate that ...

Sclerostin and Osteocalcin: Candidate Bone-Produced Hormones
In addition to its structural role, the skeleton serves as an endocrine organ that controls mineral metabolism and energy homeostasis. Three major cell types in bone - osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and osteocytes – dynamically form and maintain bone and ...

The Role of Sclerostin in Bone Diseases
Sclerostin has been identified as an important regulator of bone homeostasis through inhibition of the canonical Wnt-signaling pathway, and it is involved in the pathogenesis of many different skeletal diseases.

Sclerostin is a Wnt signaling pathway inhibitor that negatively regulates bone formation. Bone-marrow-derived stromal cell (BMSC) differentiation is influenced by the Wnt pathway, leading to the hypothesis that higher levels of sclerostin might be ...
