RANKL/RANK
Receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) and its ligand receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) are encoded, respectively, by the Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 11A (Tnfrsf11a) and the Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 11 (Tnfsf11) genes, RANK and RANKL constitute a receptor-ligand pair initiating a signaling pathway of paramount relevance in bone remodeling, lymph node formation, establishment of the thymic microenvironment, mammary gland development during pregnancy, and bone metastasis in cancer. RANK mutant mice, as well as RANKL mutant mice, exhibit severe osteopetrosis and defective tooth eruption due to a complete lack in osteoclast. Moreover, RANKL and RANK mutant mice lack lymph nodes and AIRE+ thymic medullary epithelial cells.

Osteoprotegerin
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-183516CAS No.: 19220-35-0Synonyms: OPGOsteoprotegerin (OPG) belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. Osteoprotegerin blocks the RANKL-RANK interaction as well as the binding of TRAIL to its receptor. Osteoprotegerin activates NF-κB to induce the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and E-selectin, and activates the phosphorylation of ERK1/2. Osteoprotegerin regulates osteoclast activity, inhibits osteoclast maturation and formation, bone lysis and bone resorption, and increases bone mass. Osteoprotegerin regulates vascular endothelial cell function. Osteoprotegerin can be used in the research of cardio-cerebrovascular and bone-related diseases.

Anti-osteoporosis agent-11
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-168090CAS No.: 2869099-50-1Anti-osteoporosis agent-11 (compound 3k) is an anti-osteoporosis compound targeting osteoclasts. Anti-osteoporosis agent-11 has the most significant inhibitory effect on osteoclast differentiation, with an IC50 value of 0.36 μM. In addition, Anti-osteoporosis agent-11 inhibits osteoclast formation, bone resorption, and the expression of osteoclast-specific genes by blocking rankl-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and NF-κB signaling pathways.

Roburic acid (Standard)
0 ImagesRoburic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Roburic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Roburic acid acts as an anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and osteoclastogenesis inhibitor, with a Ki of 7.066 μM against human TNF, an IC50 of 9 μM against human COX-2, and an IC50 of 5 μM against ovine COX-1. Roburic acid reduces the production of inflammatory mediators such as NO and IL-6 in macrophages by inhibiting the NF-κB and MAPK (p38/JNK) pathways. By competitively inhibiting the TNF-TNF-R1 interaction, Roburic acid blocks the downstream NF-κB signaling pathway, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in cancer cells. Roburic acid specifically inhibits osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption by suppressing the RANKL/TRAF6/NF-κB/NFATc1 axis. Roburic acid can be used in research related to osteolytic diseases such as osteoporosis, colorectal cancer and inflammatory diseases.

Pamidronic acid (Standard)
0 ImagesPamidronic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Pamidronic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Pamidronic acid, the second-generation nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate, is an inhibitor of bone loss. Pamidronic acid significantly inhibits subchondral bone loss in early osteoarthritis by upregulating the expression of OPG in cartilage and subchondral bone, and inhibiting the expression of RANKL and MMP-9 in both tissues, as well as TLR-4 in cartilage, thereby alleviating cartilage degeneration. Additionally, Pamidronic acid can inhibit the signaling of Wnt and β-catenin, and is applicable for research on osteoporosis and osteosarcoma.
