A chimeric form of osteoprotegerin inhibits hypercalcemia and bone resorption induced by IL-1β, TNF-α, PTH, PTHrP, and 1,25(OH)2D3.
Open accessAbstract
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a secreted protein that inhibits osteoclast formation and activity and appears to be a critical regulator of bone mass and metabolism. In the current study, mice were challenged with various cytokines and hormones (interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, parathyroid hormone, parathyroid hormone-related protein, and 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3) that are known to increase bone resorption and cause hypercalcemia and treated concurrently with either a recombinant chimeric Fc fusion form of human OPG, with enhanced biological activity (cOPG) (2.5 mg/kg/day) or vehicle. Mice receiving these bone-resorbing factors became hypercalcemic by day 3 after commencing treatment and had increased bone resorption as evidenced by elevated osteoclast numbers on day 5. Concurrent cOPG treatment prevented hypercalcemia (p < 0.05) and maintained osteoclast numbers in the normal range (p < 0.001). The demonstration that cOPG can inhibit bone resorption suggests that this molecule may be useful in the treatment of diseases including hyperparathyroidism, humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy, osteoporosis, and inflammatory bone disease, which are characterized, in part, by increases in osteoclastic bone resorption.

“In support of the latter notion, OPG treatment of mice was able to fully prevent the proresorptive effects of IL-1 and TNF-␣ (21).”

In the citing paper
“OPG prevents the ability of proresorptive agents (IL-1, TNF-␣, PTH, PTHrP, vitamin D) to increase bone resorption in mice (21), which is consistent with the interpretation that those agents increase bone resorption by increasing the RANKL:OPG ratio.”

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.
