Supplementary information

The osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR) is a cell surface receptor known for its role in osteoclastogenesis. Alternative names for OSCAR include OC-STAMP and PSL. This receptor is a type I transmembrane protein with a mass of approximately 45 kDa. It is expressed on the surface of precursor osteoclast cells and to a lesser extent certain immune cells like macrophages and dendritic cells. Its structure includes two immunoglobulin-like domains that contribute to its function in cellular signaling.
Biological function summary

OSCAR plays a critical role in the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts which are cells involved in bone resorption. OSCAR forms part of an important signaling complex that interacts with adaptor proteins such as FcRγ triggering downstream signaling cascades. Its activation drives the expression of genes necessary for osteoclast development linking it to bone homeostasis and remodeling. OSCAR functions alongside other receptors to ensure proper skeletal maintenance.

Pathways

OSCAR's function is integrated into the RANK/RANKL pathway which is pivotal for osteoclast differentiation. The interaction of OSCAR with the FcRγ chain activates signaling pathways similar to those triggered by the RANK receptor. These include NF-κB and MAPK pathways which promote osteoclast maturation and activity. OSCAR also interacts indirectly with proteins like TRAF6 contributing to the regulation of bone metabolism.

OSCAR's function connects to conditions such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. In osteoporosis imbalanced bone remodeling results in weakened bones where OSCAR's overactivity contributes to increased bone resorption. In rheumatoid arthritis aberrant OSCAR expression may worsen joint damage due to excessive osteoclast activity. The receptor also interacts with proteins implicated in these diseases like RANK and OPG influencing pathological processes in bone and joint tissues.
