Tnfrsf11b
Tnfrsf11b (Opg) knockout mice were generated through homologous recombination and supplied by Shanghai Research Center for Model Organisms. This mouse model, which is referred to as the "osteoporotic mouse", shows a typical phenotype of osteoporosis and arterial calcification, and Therefore, this animal
model is ideal for drug screening and evaluation for the treatment of "human osteoporosis", in gene therapy of osteoporosis, as well as in the research on the mechanisms of interaction between osteoclasts and osteoblasts.
