Pulling rank with RNA: RANKL promotes the association of PGC-1β/RNA complexes with NCoR/HDAC3 to activate gene expression in osteoclasts

Mol Cell. 2023 Oct 5;83(19):3397-3399. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2023.09.012.

Abstract

In this issue, Abe et al1 report a novel mechanism by which RANKL stimulates osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption through non-coding RNAs that bind PGC-1β and convert the NCoR/HDAC3 co-repressor complex into a co-activator of AP-1- and NFκB-regulated genes.
