Osteocytic sclerostin expression as an indicator of altered bone turnover [PDF]
: Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a complex and serious complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), a major global health problem caused by loss of renal function.

The sclerostin-neutralizing antibody AbD09097 recognizes an epitope adjacent to sclerostin's binding site for the Wnt co-receptor LRP6 [PDF]
The glycoprotein sclerostin has been identified as a negative regulator of bone growth. It exerts its function by interacting with the Wnt co-receptor LRP5/6, blocks the binding of Wnt factors and thereby inhibits Wnt signalling.

Sclerostin as a novel marker of bone turnover in athletes
Sclerostin is a protein secreted by osteocytes that acts as an inhibitor of bone formation. It has been shown that physical activity affects sclerostin concentration and thus bone remodelling.

Sclerostin inhibition in rare bone diseases: Molecular understanding and therapeutic perspectives
Sclerostin emerges as a novel target for bone anabolic therapy in bone diseases. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) are rare bone diseases in which therapeutic potential of sclerostin inhibition cannot be ignored.

The association of circulating sclerostin level with markers of bone metabolism in patients with thyroid dysfunction [PDF]
Background: The aim of this study was to compare serum sclerostin concentrations in patients with thyroid dysfunction with euthyroid control subjects and to assess the relationship between sclerostin and markers of bone metabolism (osteocalcin and beta ...

Sclerostin as Regulatory Molecule in Vascular Media Calcification and the Bone–Vascular Axis
Sclerostin is a well-known inhibitor of bone formation that acts on Wnt/β-catenin signaling. This manuscript considers the possible role of sclerostin in vascular calcification, a process that shares many similarities with physiological bone ...

Background: Sclerostin has been associated with decreased bone turnover in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The relationship with bone turnover markers (BTMs) and bone mineral density (BMD) remains unclear.

Background Wnt-catenin signaling antagonists sclerostin and dickkopf-related protein-1 (Dkk-1) inhibit bone formation and are involved in the pathogenesis of postmenopausal osteoporosis (PO). However, the association between sclerostin and Dkk-1 and bone

Novel actions of sclerostin on bone [PDF]
The discovery that two rare autosomal recessive high bone mass conditions were caused by the loss of sclerostin expression prompted studies into its role in bone homeostasis. In this article, we aim to bring together the wealth of information relating to sclerostin in bone though discussion of rare human disorders in which sclerostin is reduced or ...
