Impact of elevated sclerostin levels on bone resorption: unravelling structural changes and mineral metabolism disruption

Aims: The physiological function of sclerostin remains unknown. Sclerostin is synthesized by osteocytes and operates by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Similarly, it is well established that low levels of sclerostin lead to enhanced bone formation and reduced calciuria, and that high levels o...
