The present invention demonstrates that glucocorticoid-induced bone disease is due to changes in the birth and death rate of bone cells using a murine model of glucocorticoid excess as well as bone biopsy specimens obtained from patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. This invention demonstrates that glucocorticoid administration increases apoptosis of mature osteoblasts and osteocytes and decreases bone formation rate and bone mineral density accompanied by defective osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis in the bone marrow.

La présente invention vise à démontrer que la destruction osseuse induite par les glucocorticoïdes est due à des modifications des taux de naissance et de mort des cellules osseuses au moyen d'un modèle murin d'excès de glucocorticoïdes et de biopsies osseuses pratiquées sur des patients atteints d'ostéoporose induite par les glucocorticoïdes. Cette invention démontre que l'administration de glucocorticoïdes accroît l'apoptose des ostéocytes et des ostéoblastes matures et réduit la vitesse de formation osseuse et la densité minérale osseuse associée à des troubles de l'ostéoclastogenèse et de l'ostéoblastogenèse dans la moelle épinière.
