Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa B (RANK) and Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa B Ligand (RANKL) in Osteoporosis Risk: Gene Polymorphism and Soluble RANKL Level in Indonesia Post-Menopausal WomenLuluk Yunaini, Dwi Anita Suryandari, Linda Kusdhany et al.Hormonal changes in postmenopausal women may increase osteoclastogenesis that can lead to increased risk of osteoporosis. Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B (RANK) and Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor Kappa B Ligand (RANKL) have an important role in osteoclastogenesis that involve in the regulation of bone resorption. In this study, we analyzed the Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNPs) within the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2018 · 8,180 accessesView PDF Cite
