Role of RANKL-induced osteoclast formation and MMP-dependent matrix degradation in bone destruction by breast cancer metastasis

Bone metastasis of breast cancer induces severe osteolysis with increased bone resorption. Osteoclast differentiation regulated by the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) in osteoblasts and matrix degradation induced by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are thought to be involved in the proces...
