We are delighted to have our paper selected for #APSselect award!!! In this study we show that estrogen deficient osteoblasts fail to produce inhibitory OPG after mechanical stimulation, but upregulate M-CSF and COX-2 expression and thus leave osteoclast activity unconstrained. https://t.co/WKXo3cTzTA
