Sclerostin: clinical insights in muscle–bone crosstalk

open access: yes, 2023
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

Sclerostin and Its Associations With Bone Metabolism Markers and Sex Hormones in Healthy Community-Dwelling Elderly Individuals and Adolescents

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Sclerostin is an important regulator of bone mass involving Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. We aimed to obtain the profile of serum sclerostin level and explore its associations with bone metabolism markers and sex hormones in healthy community-dwelling

A biomechanical optimized Zr58Cu25Al14Nb3 bulk metallic glass dental implant improves peri‐implant stress distribution and bone quality under physiological loading

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This study reports a novel Zr58Cu25Al14Nb3 bulk metallic glass that possesses high mechanical strength and low elastic modulus, which further promotes efficient mechanotransduction and significantly improves peri‐implant bone quality upon cyclic occlusal loading.

Sclerostin Quo Vadis? - Is This a Useful Long-Term Mortality Parameter in Prevalent Hemodialysis Patients?

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2015
Background/Aims: Cardiovascular calcification contributes to the increased mortality in hemodialysis patients. Sclerostin was identified as an antianabolic bone factor causing soft tissue calcification. Data on prospective large-scale studies associating

Progress in bone tissue engineering biomaterials: Development, challenges, and prospects

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Scheme 1 Application of biomaterials in immunomodulation during bone tissue engineering. Abstract Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge in orthopedics. Over 2 million cases caused by trauma, tumors, and other factors occur annually, with large‐scale defects posing a particular bottleneck due to limited self‐healing capacity.

Anti-sclerostin antibody – A potential therapeutic target for periodontal bone regeneration

open access: yesJournal of Oral Research and Review
Sclerostin is a glycoprotein predominantly released by specialized bone-forming cells (osteocytes). It serves as a principal inhibitor of osteogenesis and plays a key act in modulating the metabolism of alveolar bone. Sclerostin is shown to contribute to

The Effect of Renal Dysfunction on Circulating Sclerostin Level in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2014
Objective. Sclerostin is a Wnt inhibitor produced specifically by osteocytes. However, it is not currently clear whether renal dysfunction has an effect on circulating sclerostin level in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Serum sclerostin levels are positively related to bone mineral density in peritoneal dialysis patients: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2019
Background Sclerostin, an antagonist of the Wingless-type mouse mammary tumor virus integration site (Wnt) pathway that regulates bone metabolism, is a potential contributor of chronic kidney disease (CKD)–mineral and bone disorder (MBD), which has ...
