Coronectomy of deeply impacted lower third molar : incidence of outcomes and complications after one year follow-up [PDF]
Objectives: The purpose of present study was to assess the surgical management of impacted third molar with proximity to the inferior alveolar nerve and complications associated with coronectomy in a series of patients undergoing third molar surgery ...

Glucocorticoid-associated osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GA-ONFH) is a progressive bone disorder which frequently results in femoral head collapse and hip joint dysfunction. Sclerostin (SOST) is principally secreted by osteocytes in bone and plays an

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.

Identification of a DNA aptamer that inhibits sclerostin's antagonistic effect on Wnt signalling [PDF]
Sclerostin is an extracellular negative regulator of bone formation that is a recognized therapeutic target for osteoporosis therapy. In the present study, we performed DNA aptamer selection against sclerostin, then characterized aptamer-sclerostin ...

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disease characterized by bone fragility and bone formation. Sclerostin could negatively regulate bone formation by antagonizing the Wnt signal pathway, whereas it imposes severe cardiac ischemic events in ...

The roles of sclerostin and irisin on bone and muscle of orchiectomized rats
Background The reduction in androgen level gives rise to a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle strength, but the exact mechanisms are unclear.

Phospho1 deficiency transiently modifies bone architecture yet produces consistent modification in osteocyte differentiation and vascular porosity with ageing [PDF]
PHOSPHO1 is one of principal proteins involved in initiating bone matrix mineralisation. Recent studies have found that Phospho1 KO mice (Phospho1-R74X) display multiple skeletal abnormalities with spontaneous fractures, bowed long bones, osteomalacia ...

Decreased Serum Level of Sclerostin in Older Adults with Sarcopenia
Background Although muscles and bones interact with each other through various secretory factors, the role of sclerostin, an osteocyte-secreted factor, on muscle metabolism has not been well studied.

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 ...
