Nox4 Expression Is Not Required for OVX ‐Induced Osteoblast Senescence and Bone Loss in Mice

Estrogen deficiency and aging play critical roles in the pathophysiology of bone as a result of increased oxidative stress. It has been suggested that prevention of NADPH oxidase‐ (Nox‐) dependent accumulation of ROS may be an approach to potentially minimize bone loss caused by these conditions. Using ovariectomized (OVX) and Nox4 gene‐deletion mouse models, we investigated the role of Nox4 in OVX‐induced bone loss and osteoblast senescence...
