A transformative study has uncovered the pivotal role of the protein Naked cuticle homolog 2 (NKD2) in regulating the differentiation of bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-resorbing osteoclasts.
While several scientific reports have revealed the distinct regulatory mechanisms of osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation, little is known about the common factors that influence the ...
TNFRSF11A encodes the receptor activator of NFκB (RANK), which is critical for normal osteoclast formation; genetic variants in this gene result in familial expansile osteolysis, a Paget-disease ...
When we think of type 2 diabetes, images of heart problems or kidney damage often come to mind. But lurking quietly behind these well-known complications is another serious threat—bone disease.
