Wnt family member 16 (WNT16) is a major Wnt ligand involved in the regulation of postnatal bone homeostasis. WNT16 plays a critical role for acquisition of both cortical and trabecular bone mass and strength. WNT16-targeted therapies might be useful for treatment of postmenopausal trabecular bone loss.
