Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biomedicine, more specifically, the invention relates to the application of Flot2 gene inhibitors in inhibiting osteoclast formation and / or osteoclast activity. Background technique
[0002] The stabilization of bone metabolism requires a dynamic balance and coupling between bone resorption mediated by osteoclasts (OCs) and bone formation mediated by osteoblasts (OBs), which maintain function in healthy individuals Balance, and once the balance is broken, it may lead to the occurrence of bone diseases.
[0003] Osteoclasts are the only cells in the body responsible for bone resorption. It can differentiate into functional mature osteoclasts from osteoclast precursor cells after activation. Because differentiated and mature osteoclasts can absorb bone, their excessive activation can cause bone loss, osteoporosis, fracture pain, secondary reactive bone hyperplasia, and even disability. There are many diseases rela...
