Abstract excerpt
Signaling through receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB (RANK) is essential for the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts, the cell principally responsible for bone resorption. Animals genetically deficient in RANK or the cognate RANK ligand are profoundly osteopetrotic because of t...
