ACTH, leaving cells in dexamethasone alone for 36 hours, caused a marked increase in annexin V-positivity, proving that ACTH was critical for cell survival. VEGF production was also induced by co-culturing human osteoblasts with CD14+ osteoclast precursors. Glucocorticoids abolished this effect, sho

Hypophosphatasia (HPP), an inborn-error-of-metabolism characterized biochemically by subnormal serum levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), is caused by deactivating mutations in the gene which encodes the tissue-nonspecific ALP isoenzyme (TNSALP). Radiographs in "childhood" HPP typically show ricket
Osteoporosis is a disease with continuous loss of bone and, therefore, artificial division into type I and type II (e.g. senile) is not logical. Simple classification of primary and secondary osteoporosis is more practical and useful in their management. Osteoporosis affects ~10% of the World's popu
