Compositions and methods for the treatment of bon diseases, bone fractures, bone injuries and other bone abnormalities involving the use of Dkk protein, a Wnt antagonist, a Wnt inhibitor, or any other related protein for the stimulation or enhancement of mineralization and for stimulating the renewal of cells. One Dkk protein, Dickkopf-2 (Dkk-2) acts to stimulate bone formation independently of Wnt proteins which may be inhibited and/or antagonized by Dkk- 2. Dkk-2 displayed enhanced specific targeting ability and enhanced biological activity in stimulating or enhancing mineralization. Dkk-2 also played a role in the differentiation and self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells, particularly in osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis.

L'invention concerne des compositions et des méthodes permettant de traiter les maladies osseuses, les fractures osseuses, les blessures osseuses et autres anormalités osseuses consistant à utiliser la protéine Dkk, un antagoniste de Wnt, un inhibiteur de Wnt ou n'importe quelle autre protéine associée à la stimulation ou à l'amélioration de la minéralisation et pour la stimulation du renouvellement des cellules. Une protéine Dkk, la Dickkopf-2 (Dkk-2), agit de façon à stimuler l'ostéoformation indépendamment des protéines Wnt qui peuvent être inhibées et/ou antagonisées par la Dkk-2. La Dkk-2 affiche une capacité de ciblage spécifique améliorée et une activité biologique améliorée pour la stimulation ou l'amélioration de la minéralisation. La Dkk-2 a également joué un rôle dans la différenciation et l'autorenouvellement des cellules souches hématopoïétiques et des cellules souches mésenchymateuses, notamment dans l'ostéoblastogenèse et l'ostéoclastogenèse.
