Journal ArticleDOI

osteoprotegerin-deficient mice develop early onset osteoporosis and arterial calcification

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that OPG is a critical regulator of postnatal bone mass and regulation of OPG, its signaling pathway, or its ligand(s) may play a role in the long observed association between osteoporosis and vascular calcification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor necrosis factor receptor family member RANK mediates osteoclast differentiation and activation induced by osteoprotegerin ligand

TL;DR: Data indicate that OPGL-induced osteoclastogenesis is directly mediated through RANK on osteocLast precursor cells, and polyclonal Ab against the RANK extracellular domain promotes osteoclineogenesis in bone marrow cultures suggesting that RANK activation mediates the effects of OPGl on the osteoc last pathway.
