EXPRESSED GENES THAT DEFINE THE OSTEOCLAST PHENOTYPE

摘要

The present invention features methods of treating a bone resorption disease or a bone generating disease, methods for prognosing and/or diagnosing a bone resorption disease or a bone generating disease, methods for identifying a compound that modulates bone resorption disease development or bone generating disease development, methods for determining the efficacy of a bone resorption disease therapy or a bone generating disease therapy, and oligonucleotide microarrays containing probes for genes involved in osteoclast development.
