Glucocorticoid Enhanced the Expression of Ski in Osteonecrosis of Femoral Head: The Effect on Adipogenesis of Rabbit BMSCs
AbstractGlucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis has been considered as the most serious side effect in long-term or over-dose steroid therapy. The decreased bone mass and increased marrow fat tissue demonstrated that GC can destroy the normal differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), which accelerates adipogenesis but not osteogenesis. However, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Ski, an evolutionary conserved protein, is a multifunctional transcriptional regulator that involved in regulating signaling pathways associated with adipogenesis differentiation, but the concrete function remains u...
