RANKL Inhibition Slows Aging in Progeroid Mice

RANKL is best studied in the context of bone remodeling. Its activity, binding to the cell surface receptor RANK, is necessary for the function of the osteoclast cells that break down bone extracellular matrix. Bone tissue is in a constant state of remodeling, built up by osteoblast cells and broken down by osteoclast cells. The...
