Popis: | To characterize the temporal changes in marrow lipids content and adipocytes in the development of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) in rabbits using MR spectroscopy. Twenty 20-week-old female rabbits were randomized to a control group and a GIOP group equally. Marrow lipids fraction and bone mineral density at the left proximal femur and L3–L4 vertebrae were measured by MR spectroscopy and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry at week 0, 4, 8, and 12. Marrow adipocytes were quantitatively evaluated by histopathology. Marrow adiposity in the GIOP group showed a significant increase over time, with a variation of marrow lipids fraction (+35.9 %) at week 4 from baseline and it was maintained until week 12 (+75.2 %, p |
