TGF-beta coordinately activates TAK1/MEK/AKT/NFkB and SMAD pathways to promote osteoclast survival.

To better understand the roles of TGF-beta in bone metabolism, we investigated osteoclast survival in response TGF-beta and found that TGF-beta inhibited apoptosis. We examined the receptors involved in promotion of osteoclast survival and found that the canonical TGF-beta receptor complex is involv...
