Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To clarify the mechanism of the onset and progress of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head, we tried to identify the proteins interacting with Glucocorticoid Receptor (GR) using screening system of cell-free technology for protein analysis. As the results, we successfully identified more than 300 proteins, which interact with GR including not only reported proteins but also non-reported proteins relate to autophagy. This result indicates that steroid-induced osteonecrosis can be partly caused by protein degradation of non-genomic GR action as well as genomic actions.
