RUNX2 promotes osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption via the newly identified LncRNA-ROD: implications for alveolar remodeling
Delayed tooth eruption is a hallmark of cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) caused by RUNX2 haploinsufficiency, yet the underlying molecular mechanism remains undefined. Here, we show that RUNX2 regulates osteoclast-mediated alveolar bone remodeling, a process closely associated with tooth eruption. Runx2+/− mice exhibit imp...
