Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jeff D. Thostenson's research focuses on bone metabolism and resorption, investigating the molecular mechanisms that regulate these processes. His work has explored the role of osteocytes in bone resorption, particularly in the context of denosumab discontinuation, and has examined the impact of mitochondrial protein deacetylation by SIRT3 in osteoclasts on bone resorption with aging in female mice. Thostenson has also studied the effects of Tfeb elevation in osteoblast lineage cells on bone mass and strength, and investigated alterations in type I collagen that lead to lung and respiratory defects in mouse models of osteogenesis imperfecta. His research interests also extend to clinical areas, including predictors of no-show appointments in neurology clinics and the utility of controlled amphetamine withdrawal paradigms for individuals using methamphetamine. Thostenson has contributed to 46 publications, with a total of 1,784 citations and an h-index of 16. He has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Charles A. O’Brien, Joseph J. Goellner, Elena Ambrogini, and Qiang Fu.
