Abstract. Receptor activator of nuclear factor (NF-B) ligand (RANKL), its cellular receptor, receptor activator of NF-B (RANK), and the decoy receptor osteoprotegerin (OPG) constitute a novel cytokine system. RANKL produced by osteoblastic lineage cells and activated T lymphocytes is the essential factor for osteoclast formation, fusion, activation, and survival, thus resulting in bone resorption...
The decrease in estrogen level that follows the onset ofmenopause causes rapid bone loss, resulting in osteoporosis.However, the mechanism remains unclear, especially concerningthe regulation of bone-resorbing osteoclasts. Here we analyzedthe function of estrogen and its receptor in matureosteoclasts. We found that estrogen directly inhibitedbone-resorption by purified rabbit mature-osteoclasts.Moreover,...
