Effects of zinc sulfate on the levels of RANKL and OPG and the RANKL/OPG ratio in co-cultured hPDCs and THP-1 cells. (A) Protein levels of RANKL and OPG in co-cultured hPDCs and THP-1 cells treated with or without zinc sulfate after 5, 10, and 15 days of culture. (B) Measurement of the RANK/OPG ratio in co-cultured cells treated with or without zinc sulfate after 5, 10, and 15 days in culture. ** p < 0.01. *** p < 0.001.
