Abstract

Bone homeostasis is maintained by a balance in the levels of osteoclast and osteoblast activity. Osteoclasts are bone-resorbing cells and have been shown to act as key players in various osteolytic diseases. Osteoclasts differentiate from monocyte/macrophage lineage cells in the presence of receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Osteoblasts support osteoclastogenesis by producing several osteoclast differentiation factors. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are members of the pattern recognition receptor family that are involved in recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns in response to pathogen infection. TLRs regulate osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption through either the myeloid differentiation primary response 88 or the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domaincontaining adapter-inducing interferon-β signaling pathways. Since osteoclasts play a central role in the progression of osteolytic diseases, extensive research focusing on TLR downstream signaling in these cells should be conducted to advance the development of effective TLR modulators. In this review, we summarize the currently available information on the role of TLRs in osteoclast differentiation and osteolytic diseases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
