Research Abstract |
In this study, we analyzed the molecular mechanism of bone metabolism due to aging changes, using the aging mouse-derived cells. We found that increased expression of redox-related molecules txnip decrease differentiation of osteoclast activity in vitro. The reduction of bone metabolic function due to aging, txnipmay regulate osteoclast genesis.
