pubmed:abstractText
Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a secreted member of the TNF receptor superfamily. OPG is made by osteoblastic cells and is expressed in a wide variety of cell and tissue types. It acts as a decoy receptor by binding the receptor activator of nuclear factors kB (RANKL) and preventing RANKL-induced osteoclast formation and differentiation. Numerous cytokines and hormones (TGF-beta, PTH, vitamin D, glucocorticoids and oestrogens) exert their effects on osteoclastogenesis by regulating the production of OPG.
