Binding of ab157289 to Osteoprotegerin. ab157289 binds to Osteoprotegerin : Fc. Method : Ligand binding assay : 96 well ELISA plates were coated O/N with 50 ng OPG-Fc per well. After a blocking step, the indicated concentrations of ab157289 were added for 1 hour. Bound ligand was revealed with an anti-FLAG antibody at 1 µg/ml for 30 minutes, followed by a rabbit anti-mouse IgG-HRP at 1/1000 dilution for 30 minutes. OPD was used as a substrate for the peroxidase. Absorbance was measured at 490 nm in an ELISA reader.

Mononuclear cells differentiate into Osteoclasts in the presence of M-CSF and ab157289. Method : Human CD14+ mononuclear cells isolated from adult peripheral blood were cultured in control medium (upper panel), in 25ng/ml M-CSF (middle panel), or in 25ng/ml M-CSF plus 50ng/ml ab157289 (lower panel). Osteoclasts were identified as Tartrate-Resistant Acid Phosphatase (TRAP)-positive multinucleated cells. Osteoclasts were detected exclusively in presence of ab157289 and in these culture conditions (M-CSF + ab157289), cells fused and generated multinucleated dark red TRAP-positive cells (arrows). Nuclei were stained with haematoxylin.

General info
Function
Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF11B/OPG and to TNFRSF11A/RANK. Osteoclast differentiation and activation factor. Augments the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate naive T-cell proliferation. May be an important regulator of interactions between T-cells and dendritic cells and may play a role in the regulation of the T-cell-dependent immune response. May also play an important role in enhanced bone-resorption in humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (PubMed : 22664871). Induces osteoclastogenesis by activating multiple signaling pathways in osteoclast precursor cells, chief among which is induction of long lasting oscillations in the intracellular concentration of Ca (2+) resulting in the activation of NFATC1, which translocates to the nucleus and induces osteoclast-specific gene transcription to allow differentiation of osteoclasts. During osteoclast differentiation, in a TMEM64 and ATP2A2-dependent manner induces activation of CREB1 and mitochondrial ROS generation necessary for proper osteoclast generation (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the tumor necrosis factor family.
Post-translational modifications
The soluble form of isoform 1 derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing (By similarity). The cleavage may be catalyzed by ADAM17.
