Influence of an LRP5 cytoplasmic SNP on Wnt signaling and osteoblastic differentiation.
Bone - 1 Jan 2007
Guo J, Cooper L F
Abstract excerpt
The low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) is a key determinant of bone mass, via the Wnt signaling pathway control of osteoblast function. This study examined human LRP5 signaling and the effects of an intracellular domain single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP: p.V1525A) on osteoblast differentiation and mineralization. Constitutively active LRP5 was constructed by deletion of the extracellular...
