Function
Inhibits the activation of osteoclasts and promotes osteoclast apoptosis in vitro. Bone homeostasis seems to depend on the local ratio between TNFSF11 and TNFRSF11B. May also play a role in preventing arterial calcification. May act as decoy receptor for TNFSF10/TRAIL and protect against apoptosis. TNFSF10/TRAIL binding blocks the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. Acts as decoy receptor for TNFSF11/RANKL and thereby neutralizes its function in osteoclastogenesis.
KEGG Pathway
Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction (hsa04060 )
Osteoclast differentiation (hsa04380 )
Reactome Pathway
TNFs bind their physiological receptors (R-HSA-5669034 )
