MeSH definition : A secreted member of the TNF receptor superfamily that negatively regulates osteoclastogenesis.
It is a soluble decoy receptor of RANK LIGAND that inhibits both CELL DIFFERENTIATION
and function of OSTEOCLASTS by inhibiting the interaction between RANK LIGAND and
RECEPTOR ACTIVATOR OF NUCLEAR FACTOR-KAPPA B.;
