Roxadustat promotes osteoblast differentiation and prevents estrogen deficiency-induced bone loss by stabilizing HIF-1α and activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway
Abstract Background Osteoporosis is a very common skeletal disorder that increases the risk of fractures. However, the treatment of osteoporosis is challenging. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) plays an important role in bone metabolism. Roxadustat is a novel HIF stabilizer, and its effects on b...
