ABSTRACT:
Antibodies specific for Dkk-1, an inhibitor of the osteoanabolic Wnt/LRP5 signaling pathway, are described. The antibodies, which inhibit binding of Dkk-1 to LRP5, are useful in compositions for stimulating bone growth, in particular, compositions for treating bone disorders which result in a loss in bone, for example, osteoporosis.
