Mechanical loading response in trabecular bone is abrogated by sclerostin - A direct demonstration

Sclerostin is expressed almost exclusively by mature osteocytes in bone. Recent findings from this lab indicate that sclerostin targets pre-osteocytes and osteocytes to regulate bone mineralisation(1), osteoclast activity(2), and, potentially, osteocytic osteolysis(3).
