Jun Dimerization Protein 2 (JDP2), a Member of the AP-1 Family of Transcription Factor, Mediates Osteoclast Differentiation Induced by RANKL
21 Apr 2003
Abstract excerpt
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells that resorb bones, and are derived from hematopoietic cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. The receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL, also called ODF/TRANCE/OPGL) stimulates both osteoclast differentiation from osteoclast progenitors and activation of mature osteoclasts. To identify genes responsible for osteoclast differentiation, we used a molecular indexing...
