Deletion of a Single beta-Catenin Allele in Osteocytes Abolishes the Bone Anabolic Response to Loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is essential for bone cell viability and function and for skeletal integrity. To determine if β-catenin in osteocytes plays a role in the bone anabolic response to mechanical loading, 18- to 24-week-old osteocyte β ...

Preaxial Polydactyly in Sost/Sostdc1 Double Knockouts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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 patients present radial deviation, digit syndactyly, nail dysplasia, and overall high bone mineral ...

Expression of SOST/sclerostin in compressed periodontal ligament cells

open access: yesJournal of Dental Sciences, 2016
Bone resorption and inhibition of bone formation occur on the compressed side during orthodontic tooth movement. Bone formation inhibitory factors such as sclerostin (encoded by SOST) are secreted on the compressed side by periodontal ligament (PDL) cells.

Piezo‐type mechanosensitive cation channel 1 in bone biomechanics and its multidimensional distribution characteristics in skeletal tissue

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
PIEZO1 is highly correlated with mechanical stimulation, controlling bone growth and remodeling, while showing specific distribution characteristics under distinct loads. Upon dialectical review, this manuscript proposes that PIEZO1 could serve as a target for osteoporosis and a quantitative indicator for monitoring bone health in real‐time.

Bone‐Derived dECM Hydrogels Support Tunable Microenvironments for In Vitro Osteogenic Differentiation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 1, 9 January 2026.
A tunable methacrylated decellularized bone matrix hydrogel (dECM‐MA) is developed to support 3D culture of human osteoblasts. The hydrogel preserves bone‐specific ECM cues and allows precise control over mechanical properties. This system provides a customizable platform for studying osteogenic differentiation and modeling bone tissue environments for

Vibration‐Mediated Recovery of Irradiated Osteocytes and Their Regulatory Role in Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 4, 26 January 2026.
Radiotherapy damages bone and disrupts osteocyte function, yet mechanically mediated protection remains largely unexplored. This study demonstrates that low‐magnitude, high‐frequency (LMHF) vibration mitigates irradiated osteocyte apoptosis, restores their ability to regulate breast cancer extravasation, and acts synergistically with radiotherapy to ...

Associations of serum sclerostin levels with body composition, pulmonary function, and exacerbations in COPD patients

open access: yesPulmonology
Background In COPD, the bronchial epithelium shows a pathologically activated Wnt pathway. Sclerostin (SOST) is a secreted glycoprotein that is associated with bone metabolism and blocks the Wnt pathway.

Behavioral and Neural Correlates of Cognitive Training and Transfer Effects in Stroke Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Stroke lesions are frequently followed by cognitive impairments. Cognitive training is a non-pharmacological intervention that can promote neural compensation mechanisms and strategies to remediate cognitive impairments.
