LRP6 High Bone Mass Characterized in Two Generations Harboring a Unique Mutation of Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor‐Related Protein 6 [PDF]
JBMR Plus, 2023 Osteoblast Wnt/β‐catenin signaling conditions skeletal development and health. Bone formation is stimulated when on the osteoblast surface a Wnt binds to low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 5 (LRP5) or 6 (LRP6), in turn coupled to a frizzled
