positive regulation of bone ossification
Phenotype triggers
normal activity of
ER-alpha
ui-button
in
osteoclast
ui-button
Activation of Er alpha results in preserved tickness and number of trabeculae and preserved thickness and volumetric density of cortical bone.
[1]
ER alpha but not ER beta or AR is of importance for the trabecular bone-sparing effect of estrogens.

normal activity of
ER-alpha
ui-button
in
growth_plate
ui-button
ER alpha is expressed in the growth-plate cartilage and in bone.

In aging men, estradiol is the dominant sex steroid regulating bone resorption, whereas both estradiol and testosterone are important in maintaining bone formation.
