Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Osteoprotegerin (OPG) also known as osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor is a glycoprotein with a mass of approximately 60 kDa. It acts as a soluble decoy receptor for receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL) and is encoded by the TNFRSF11B gene. OPG is mainly expressed in osteoblasts fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Its expression can be found in diverse tissues throughout the body including the liver and lungs.
Biological function summary

OPG inhibits the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts by binding to RANKL preventing its interaction with the receptor RANK on the surface of osteoclast progenitor cells. As part of a non-classical signaling pathway OPG plays a significant role in the regulation of bone remodeling and maintenance by controlling bone resorption. This activity preserves bone density and structure by limiting excessive osteoclastic activity.

Pathways

OPG operates within the RANK/RANKL/OPG signaling axis which is important for bone metabolism. It counteracts the bone-resorption pathway driven by the RANKL-RANK interaction inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. This axis involves interactions with other proteins such as RANK RANKL and TRAIL where TRAIL’s involvement hints towards a broader immune regulation role for OPG.

OPG has a significant association with conditions such as osteoporosis and vascular calcification. In osteoporosis an imbalance in the RANKL/OPG ratio can lead to excessive bone loss due to increased osteoclast activity. In vascular calcification OPG appears to play a protective role likely linked with regulatory mechanisms involving RANKL and TRAIL. Understanding these interactions opens potential therapeutic avenues particularly in managing bone-related and cardiovascular conditions.

Target data

Acts as a decoy receptor for TNFSF11/RANKL and thereby neutralizes its function in osteoclastogenesis. Inhibits the activation of osteoclasts and promotes osteoclast apoptosis in vitro. Bone homeostasis seems to depend on the local ratio between TNFSF11 and TNFRSF11B. May also play a role in preventing arterial calcification. May act as decoy receptor for TNFSF10/TRAIL and protect against apoptosis. TNFSF10/TRAIL binding blocks the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis.
