Introduction. Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological cancer characterized by the expansion and accumulation of monoclonal malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM). Interactions between MM cells and cells of the bone/BM...
Osteocyte (Ot)-derived Sclerostin (Scl) has local actions in bone mediated by Lrp 4/5/6 receptors, inhibiting bone formation and stimulating bone resorption by antagonizing Wnt signaling. Emerging evidence suggests that Scl...
Osteocyte (Ot)-derived Sclerostin (Scl), encoded by the SOST gene, regulates bone homeostasis by acting on osteoblasts, inhibiting bone formation and stimulating bone resorption. Emerging evidence suggest that Scl has...
Osteoporosis is a disease of low bone mass that places individuals at enhanced risk for fracture, disability, and death. Hospitalizations for osteoporotic fractures exceeds those for heart attack, stroke, and breast cancer...
