ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress on the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB (RANK)/receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) system during bone reconstruction to provide theoretical basis for further research on the prevention and treatment of bone-related diseases.MethodsThe relevant research results at home and abroad in recent years were analyzed and summarized.ResultsCGRP and RANK/RANKL/OPG system play important regulatory roles in the bone reconstruction.ConclusionAt present, the research on the mechanism of CGRP and RANK/RANKL/OPG system in bone reconstruction is insufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to study further on the process and interrelation of CGRP and RANK/RANKL/OPG system in bone reconstruction to confirm their mechanism, which will bring new ideas and methods for the treatment of bone related diseases in clinic.
