Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis: pathophysiological role of GH/IGF-I and PTH/VITAMIN D axes, treatment options and guidelines

Abstract: Glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is the most frequent form of secondary osteoporosis caused by chronic exposure to glucocorticoid excess. Pathogenesis of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis is multifactorial including direct effects of glucocorticoids on bone cells and indirect effects of glucocorticoids on several neuroendocrine and metabolic pathways. Fragility fractures occur early in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis and anti-osteoporotic drugs along with calcium and vitamin D should be started soon a… Show more

“…Teriparatide (recombinant human parathyroid hormone 1-34) is used in the treatment of postmenopausal OP with a high risk of fracture. 51 Teriparatide has a serious side-effect warning, because high doses of teriparatide can upregulate the occurrence of osteosarcomas in rats. 52 On the other hand, osteoclasts could be set as an essential target for OP treatment.…”
