Emerging therapeutic opportunities for skeletal restoration

Abstract: Preface Osteoporosis, a syndrome characterized by thin bones and fractures, has become more prevalent in both women and men. Established therapies for this disorder consist primarily of drugs that prevent bone loss, such as the bisphosphonates and selective estrogen receptor modulators. Although these drugs have been shown to reduce fractures in randomized trials, there is an urgent need for treatments that could lower fracture risk further without additional adverse effects. The introduction of parathyroid ho… Show more

“…sFRP3 is an inhibitor of signaling by the wingless-type MMTV integration site family (wnt) pathway. Because wnt signaling potently regulates the balance between bone formation and bone resorption [50], one possibility is that reduced wnt signaling during aseptic loosening further skews that balance against bone formation. Consistent with that possibility, antibodies that neutralize sclerostin, an inhibitor of wnt signaling, block the negative effect of polyethylene particles on implant fixation in rats by increasing bone formation and decreasing bone resorption [60].…”

“…An endocrine function for NHERF1 can be inferred from two sources. First, lesions in the NHERF1 gene contribute to excessive urinary phosphate (P i ) excretion and skeletal defects in humans that are emblematic of abnormalities of the action of parathyroid hormone (PTH) (11)(12)(13). Second, NHERF1…”

“…PTH(1-34) (teriparatide) is the only anabolic drug on the US market for treatment of osteoporosis (Kawai et al, 2011). Although intermittent administration of PTH(1-34) promotes bone formation and reduces the incidence of fracture, continuous administration promotes bone resorption and hypercalcemia dx.doi.org/10.1124/jpet.112.199752. s This article has supplemental material available at jpet.aspetjournals.org.…”
