Osteoclast formation and activity in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis in rheumatoid arthritis.
- Abstract:
-
OBJECTIVE: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is often complicated by generalized osteopenia due to increased bone resorption by osteoclasts. We analysed a number of cellular and humoral factors that influence osteoclast formation from circulating precursors in RA patients.
