Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Stavros C. Manolagas, Distinguished Professor in Internal Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, investigates mechanisms of bone loss and bone anabolism. His research group studies the role of cellular components and signaling pathways in skeletal health, particularly in the context of aging and hormonal changes.

Recent publications from his laboratory have explored the contribution of mitochondrial Sirt3 to age-associated bone loss and the effects of neutralizing oxidized phospholipids on this process in mice. Other work has examined the function of the RANK ligand in osteoclast gene expression and the impact of deleting specific scavenger receptors in myeloid cells and osteoblast progenitors on bone mass. His group has also investigated the bone anabolic effects of antibodies that block oxidized phospholipids, linking these effects to Wnt10b signaling in osteoblasts.

Manolagas holds an h-index of 85, with 183 publications cited over 28,918 times. He is recognized as a highly cited researcher. Key collaborators at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences include Horacio Gómez-Acevedo, Elena Ambrogini, Michela Palmieri, and Teenamol E. Joseph.
