Preaxial Polydactyly in Sost/Sostdc1 Double Knockouts [PDF]
In the United States, {approx}5% are born with congenital birth defects due to abnormal function of cellular processes and interactions. Sclerosteosis, a rare autosomal recessive disease, causes hyperostosis of the axial and appendicular skeleton, and ...

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.

Effect of sclerostin inactivation in a mouse model of severe dominant osteogenesis imperfecta
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare bone disease that is associated with fractures and low bone mass. Sclerostin inhibition is being evaluated as a potential approach to increase bone mass in OI.
