Twelve years of GWAS discoveries for osteoporosis and related traits: advances, challenges and applications.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper summarized the discovery from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in the bone field in the last 12 years and introduced the clinical use of GWAS findings in bone field, such as the identification of causal clinical risk factors, the development of drug targets and disease prediction.

Osteoclast fusion and bone loss are restricted by interferon inducible guanylate binding proteins.

TL;DR: The authors showed that mice deficient in IFN signaling components including IFN alpha and beta receptor 1 (IFNAR1), interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1), IRF1, IRF9, and STAT1 each have reduced bone density and increased osteoclastogenesis compared to wild mice.
