Science Advances | 南模生物助力揭示骨质疏松和骨折愈合治疗新靶点
目前,全世界有超过2亿人罹患骨质疏松症,50岁以上人群中,骨量丢失导致老年人骨折风险及死亡率快速上升,每5名男性或3名女性中就有一人可能遭遇骨质疏松骨折。破骨细胞和成骨细胞共同维持骨代谢的平衡。抗骨吸收药物单纯抑制破骨细胞功能,阻碍了正常骨改建,对已经发生的严重骨质疏松效果不佳,存在影响骨折愈合的风险。近年来,促骨形成的靶点和药物越来越受到科研人员的重视。
2020年11月19日,海军军医大学苏佳灿/陈晓/陈啸飞研究团队在Science Advances 杂志在线发表了题为“Targeting Actin-Bundling Protein L-Plastin as an Anabolic Therapyfor Bone Loss”的研究成果,该研究发现L-Plastin可以作为治疗骨质疏松和促进骨折愈合的潜在靶点。
南模生物为该研究构建了L-Plastin敲除小鼠模型。
