Acts as decoy receptor for RANKL and thereby neutralizes its function in osteoclastogenesis. Inhibits the activation of osteoclasts and promotes osteoclast apoptosis. Bone homeostasis seems to depend on the local RANKL/OPG ratio. May also play a role in preventing arterial calcification. May act as decoy receptor for TRAIL and protect against apoptosis. TRAIL binding blocks the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis.

Subcellular Location
Secreted
Detection Range
15.6-1000pg/mL
Entryname
TR11B_RAT
Linearity
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of TR11B and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.
Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay):Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Intra-Assay CV: ≤4.1%
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays):Three samples of known concentration were tested in five separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.
Inter-Assay CV: ≤7.9%
Protein Name
Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 11B
Recovery
Recovery was determined by spiking various levels of TR11B into serum and plasma .
