Abstract

Systems and methods for treating osteogenesis imperfecta using FoxP3+ CD8 T-cells (TcREG). Osteoclasts are induced to produce FoxP3+ CD8 T-cells (TcREG) through introduction of a low-dose of a RANK agonist such as RANKL. The RANKL was found to best work when provided in accordance with a schedule resulting in a pulsed administration.
