Disease relevance of TNFSF11

 

High impact information on TNFSF11

  • These data suggest that OPGL is an osteoclast differentiation and activation factor [1].
  • Receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) and its ligand RANKL have been identified as essential factors involved in osteoclast development and bone remodeling, but their mechanism and interacting factors have not been fully characterized [8].
  • Thus RANK and RANKL seem to be important regulators of interactions between T cells and dendritic cells [9].
  • RANKL augments the ability of dendritic cells to stimulate naive T-cell proliferation in a mixed lymphocyte reaction, and increases the survival of RANK+ T cells generated with interleukin-4 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta [9].
  • RANKL, RANK, and OPG are three key molecules that regulate osteoclast recruitment and function [10].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of TNFSF11

 

Biological context of TNFSF11

 

Anatomical context of TNFSF11

  • OCPs arise from TNF-alpha-activated PBMCs that migrate to the inflamed synovium and subchondral bone, where they are exposed to unopposed RANKL and TNF-alpha [2].
  • RANKL expression was dramatically upregulated in the synovial lining layer, while OPG immunostaining was restricted to the endothelium [2].
  • In a coculture system, human myeloma cells up-regulated OPGL expression but strongly down-regulated OPG production in preosteoblastic (preOB) or stromal cells (BMSCs) of primary human BM at the mRNA and protein levels [19].
  • The present study investigated whether myeloma cells affect physiologic OPG/OPGL balance in the bone marrow (BM) environment [19].
  • Ten human myeloma cell lines and myeloma cells isolated from 26 consecutive patients with MM failed to express OPGL and only rarely produced a low amount of OPG [19].
 

Associations of TNFSF11 with chemical compounds

  • We here propose that beta1 integrin/FAK-mediated signaling on osteoblasts could be involved in ICAM-1- and RANKL-dependent osteoclast maturation [17].
  • Identification and Characterization of the Precursors Committed to Osteoclasts Induced by TNF-Related Activation-Induced Cytokine/Receptor Activator of NF-{kappa}B Ligand [20].
  • MATERIALS AND METHODS: We cultured human peripheral blood CD14(+) osteoclast precursors in the presence of RANKL, macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), TNF-alpha, and dexamethasone to induce them to differentiate into osteoclasts [21].
  • Lipopolysaccharide supports survival and fusion of preosteoclasts independent of TNF-alpha, IL-1, and RANKL [22].
  • Estrogen, on the other hand, appears to inhibit production of RANKL and RANKL-stimulated osteoclastogenesis [23].
  • The relative protection against bone erosions in SpA cannot be explained by qualitative or quantitative differences in the synovial expression of RANKL, OPG, and RANK [24].
 

Physical interactions of TNFSF11

  • BACKGROUND: Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is involved in the regulation of bone turnover through binding to the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand (RANKL), and has also been reported to be a potential survival factor for several different cell types [25].
  • Moreover, RANKL increased DNA binding of the essential osteoblast transcription factor cbfa-1 [26].
  • We thereby propose that the higher affinity adhesion via LFA-1/ICAM-1 is prerequisite for efficient function of membrane-bound ODF during osteoclast maturation [27].
  • Induction of RANKL expression and osteoclast maturation by the binding of fibroblast growth factor 2 to heparan sulfate proteoglycan on rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts [28].
 

Enzymatic interactions of TNFSF11

  • Using this antibody, we could demonstrate that MITF was rapidly and persistently phosphorylated upon stimulation of primary osteoclasts with RANKL and that phosphorylation of Ser(307) correlated with expression of the target gene tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase [29].
 

Regulatory relationships of TNFSF11

  • MCP-1 and chemokine RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted) permitted formation of TRAP-positive multinuclear cells in the absence of RANKL [18].
  • Importantly, sorted CD14(+)RANK(high) PBMNCs treated with recombinant RANKL and macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) gave rise to approximately twice the number of osteoclasts than RANK(mid) or RANK(low) cells [30].
  • Suppression of AdipoR1 with siRNA abolished the adiponectin-regulated RANKL and OPG mRNA expression in osteoblasts [31].
  • Thus, RANKL significantly induced the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 and IkappaB in RANK-positive osteosarcoma cells [32].
  • Importantly, Ocl development induced by RANKL or RANKL and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha was blocked with the novel p38 inhibitor 4-(3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyrimidine (SC-409) [33].
 

Other interactions of TNFSF11

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TNFSF11

  • RESULTS: CD40 ligation of RASFs by CD40L-transfected L cells or activated T cells induced RANKL expression and enhanced osteoclastogenesis [34].
  • Northern blotting revealed that RANKL/ODF was highly expressed in all tissues from RA and GCT patients, but not from OA or OS patients [35].
  • The structure reveals that the RANKL extracellular domain is trimeric, which was also shown by analytical ultracentrifugation, and each subunit has a beta-strand jellyroll topology like the other members of the TNF family [36].
  • Materials and Methods: Real-time quantitative PCR and ELISA were used to detect RANKL and OPG mRNA and protein expression in cultured human osteoblasts [31].
  • A competitive RT-PCR assay for RANKL and OPG mRNA using artificial cDNA standards was developed and used for quantification [37].
