Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Nancy Cecile Bustamante-Gomez's research investigates bone remodeling and resorption, with a particular focus on the role of osteocytes and osteoprotegerin. Her work has explored how reduced osteoprotegerin expression by osteocytes may contribute to rebound bone resorption following denosumab discontinuation. She has also examined the suppressive effects of osteoblast-derived osteoprotegerin on bone resorption. Bustamante-Gomez has contributed to studies on cellular differentiation and the local production of signaling molecules within bone tissue. Her recent publication in 2026 introduced a framework for analyzing high-resolution spatial transcriptomics data to understand cell-cell communication. She has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Joseph J. Goellner, Charles A. O’Brien, Jeff D. Thostenson, and Michela Palmieri, co-authoring multiple publications with each.
