MiR-146a a Key Player in Bone Metabolism
Background/Purpose: Micro RNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in the regulation of bone metabolism. MiR-146a, an important anti-inflammatory miRNA, was found to negatively impact osteogenesis…Abstract Number: 1989 • 2018 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
A Regulatory Role of ANTXR1 in RANKL-Induced Osteoclast Differentiation and Function
Background/Purpose: Anthrax toxin receptor 1 (ANTXR1) has been known to have relationship with extracellular transmembrane protein deeply associated with the process of bone formation and…Abstract Number: 63 • 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting

The Effect of Myostatin Inhibition on Bone Loss in Murine Osteoporosis Models
Background/Purpose: Myostatin, also called as growth differentiation factor-8 (GDF-8), is a secreted member of TGF-β superfamily. Myostatin is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass…Abstract Number: 325 • 2016 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Ebselen Is a Potential Anti-Osteoporosis Agent By Suppressing RANK Ligand-Induced Osteoclast Differentiation in Vitro and Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Inflammatory Bone Destruction In Vivo
Background/Purpose: Ebselen is a non-toxic seleno-organic drug with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that is currently being examined in clinical trials to prevent and treat various diseases,…Abstract Number: 3172 • 2015 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Effect of Anti Citrullinated Protein Antibodies on Periarticular and Systemic Bone Mass in Early Arthritis Patients
Background/Purpose: Recently it has been described that anti citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) can induce differentatiomn and activation of osteoclasts even before arthritis onset (1,2). The…Abstract Number: 37 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Regulation of Osteoclast and T Cell Differentiation By DC-STAMP and TRAF3
Background/Purpose DC-STAMP (Dendritic Cell-Specific Transmembrane Protein) is a 7-pass transmembrane protein essential for cell-to-cell fusion during OC differentiation. We have previously shown that DC-STAMP is…Abstract Number: 35 • 2014 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting
Hydrogen Sulfide Inhibits Human Osteoclast Differentiation in Vitro By Triggering Sustained Antioxidant Response and Inhibiting the RANKL/OPG Ratio
Background/Purpose Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recently appreciated as a novel gasotransmitter with an important role in the regulation of tissues and organs. H2S is…
