Application

RANK is the essential signaling receptor for osteoclast differentiation factor in osteoclastogenesis. The biological functions mediated by RANK include activation of NF-ΚB and c-jun N-terminal kinase, enhancement of T cell growth and dendritic cell function, induction of osteoclastogenesis and lymph node organogenesis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TRANCE (TNF-related activation-induced cytokines, also known as RANK ligand, osteoprotegerin ligand and osteoclast differentiation factor) is the ligand for RANK. The biological functions mediated through RANK include activation of NF-κB and c-jun N-terminal kinases, enhancement of T cell growth and dentritic cell function, induction of osteoclastogenesis, and lymph node genesis. Soluble RANK is able to block TRANCE-induced biological activity.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline.

Analysis Note

The biological activity is measured by its ability to inhibit TRANCE-induced osteoclast differentiation in mouse splenocytes.

Osteoclast differentiation factor (ODF) is a ligand for osteoclastogenesis-inhibitory factor/osteoprotegerin (OCIF/OPG), and mediates an essential signal for osteoclastogenesis. Soluble-form ODF binds directly to osteoclast progenitors, suggesting the presence of a membrane-bound receptor for ODF (ODFR) on the cells. To understand

Dendritic cells are rare haematopoietic cells that reside in a number of organs and tissues. By capturing, processing and presenting antigens to T cells, dendritic cells are essential for immune surveillance and the regulation of specific immunity. Several members of
