Journal ArticleDOI

Osteocytes, mechanosensing and Wnt signaling.

TL;DR: The study of osteocyte biology is becoming an intense area of research interest and this review will examine some of the recent findings that are reshaping the understanding of bone/bone cell biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Is a Normal Physiological Response to Mechanical Loading in Bone

TL;DR: In vivo and in vitro mechanical loading results support that Wnt/β-catenin signaling is a normal physiological response to load and that activation of the Wnt /β- catenin pathway enhances the sensitivity of osteoblasts/osteocytes to mechanical loading.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linkage of a gene causing high bone mass to human chromosome 11 (11q12-13)

TL;DR: HBM demonstrates the utility of spinal Z(BMD) as a quantitative bone phenotype that can be used for linkage analysis, and determines whether a single gene with different alleles that determine a wide range of peak bone densities exists in this region of chromosome 11.
Journal ArticleDOI

LRP5 and Wnt signaling: a union made for bone.

TL;DR: The main points of the current understanding of LRP5, Wnt’s and Wnt signaling, and the role they may play in bone are summarized.
