    Antagonism of RANKL signaling by estrogen in osteoclasts
    Role Description: This application is aimed at examining the role of osteoclast mitochondria as a target of the bone protective effect of estrogens. Work proposed will test whether estrogens reduce osteoclast number and bone resorption by inhibiting RANKL stimulation of mitochondria, decreasing NAD+, and promoting mitochondria apoptotic death in osteoclast precursor cells.

    Mechanisms of decreased bone formation with aging
    Role Description: This project focuses on the role of NAD+ in the decline of osteoblast progenitors and bone formation that contributes to skeletal aging in mice.

    Different consequences of cellular aging in cortical versus cancellous bone
    Role Description: The goal of this project is to study the mechanism by which senescence of osteoblast progenitors cells contribute to skeletal aging and bone loss and to examine the contribution of p53, p21 activation in osteoprogenitors and up-regulation of Gata4 senescent osteocytes in age induced bone resorption in trabecular and cortical bone, respectively.
