Identification of a binding site on soluble RANKL that can be targeted to inhibit soluble RANK-RANKL interactions and treat osteoporosis
Huang et al. discover a binding site on soluble RANKL that is not found on its membrane-bound homologue. A drug screening identified a small molecule (S3-15) that can target this binding site and has anti-osteoporotic but not immunosuppressive effects.
