Abstract excerpt
A preliminary expression profiling analysis of osteoblasts derived from tibia explants of the high bone mass LRP5 G171V transgenic mice demonstrated increased expression of canonical Wnt pathway and Wnt/beta-catenin target genes compared with non-transgenic explant derived osteoblasts. Therefore, expression of Wnt/beta-catenin target genes were monitored after in vivo loading of the tibia of LRP5 G171V transgenic...
