TNF-α antibodies and osteoprotegerin decrease systemic bone loss associated with inflammation through distinct mechanisms in collagen-induced arthritis

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with focal and systemic bone loss involving cytokines such as RANKL and TNF-α. RANK-L promotes focal and systemic osteoporosis, whereas osteoprotegerin (OPG) inhibits bone resorption. Although anti-TNF-α antibodies (anti-TNF-α Ab) decrease joint...
