Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a TNF receptor superfamily, is expressed in many tissues including heart, kidney, liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Osteoprotegerin has osteoprotective effect and is critical in bone remodeling. Osteoprotegerin can bind to RANKL and inhibit the binding between TNFSF11 and RANKL, thereby neutralizing the RANKL function in osteoclastogenesis [1] . OPG is also involved in multiple biological processes of cancers. TNFRSF11B/OPG Protein, Human (HEK293, His, solution) is a recombinant human TNFRSF11B/OPG (E22-L401) with C-terminal His tag, which is produced in HEK293 cell [1] [2] .

Human

Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a glycoprotein, belongs to TNF receptor superfamily. OPG is expressed in many tissues besides osteoblasts, including heart, kidney, liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Human osteoprotegerin shares [1] . Osteoprotegerin can bind to RANKL and inhibit the binding between TNFSF11 and RANKL, thereby neutralizing the RANKL function in osteoclastogenesis. Osteoprotegerin also protects large blood vessels from medial calcification. Increased osteoprotegerin levels have been consistently associated with the incidence and prevalence of coronary artery disease [1] [3] . Osteoprotegerin is also involved in multiple processes of cancers, such as tumor survival, epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), neo-angiogenesis, invasion, and metastasis [2] . Osteoprotegerin plays a critical role in bone remodeling, and has osteoprotective effect [1] .
