Glucocorticoid Regulation of Bone Sialoprotein (BSP) Gene Expression
1 May 1995
Abstract excerpt
Glucocorticoids modulate the development and growth of many organs through interactions with a specific intracellular receptor (glucocorticoid receptor) that regulates gene transcription through a cognate element, the glucocorticoid response element (GRE), in the promoter of target genes. In bone formation glucocorticoids stimulate osteoblast differentiation and the formation of bone matrix. Recent studies have...
