General description

SILuLite SOST is a recombinant human protein expressed in human 293 cells. It consists of 201 amino acids (including a N-terminal polyhistidine and tag), with a calculated molecular mass of 22.8 kDa. SILuLite SOST is an analytical standard designed to be used as starting material for preparation of calibrators and controls in LC-MS applications.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sclerostin is a secreted Wnt signaling antagonist produced almost exclusively by osteocytes. It can selectively inhibit Wnt/ β-catenin, suppressing the activity of osteoblasts as well as the viability of osteoblasts and osteocytes. Lower sclerostin levels are associated with lower bone mineral content and bone. It was demonstrated that greater total limb bone mineral content was significantly associated with greater circulating levels of sclerostin. In addition, circulating sclerostin is a biomarker of osteoporosis severity in long-term, chronic paraplegia. Serum sclerostin was associated significantly, independently, and positively with bone mineral density of both cortical and cancellous bone. Sclerostin is considered to be one of the factors associated with chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder in hemodialysis patients.
