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.

    1,3-Dibenzyl-5-fluorouracil
    		Inhibitor
    1,3-Dibenzyl-5-fluorouracil is a chemical inhibitor of osteoclastogenesis. 1,3-Dibenzyl-5-fluorouracil inhibits the expression of osteoclast markers by downregulating the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) signaling pathways. 1,3-Dibenzyl-5-fluorouracil can be used in the study of metabolic bone diseases.

    Anti-osteoporosis agent-11
    Anti-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.

    Pamidronic acid (Standard)
    		Inhibitor
    Pamidronic 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.
