Direct effect of sclerostin on the mechanical loading response in bovine bone

Sclerostin is expressed exclusively by mature osteocytes in bone. Our recent findings indicate that sclerostin targets pre-osteocytes/osteocytes to regulate bone mineralisation(1), osteoclast activity(2), and, potentially, osteocytic osteolysis(3). Sclerostin expression in vivo is associated with th...
