1 Distinct actions of prednisolone and dexamethasone towards osteocalcin and eosinophilic cationic protein in assumed clinically equivalent doses: a study in healthy men. Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of prednisolone (PRED) and dexamethasone (DEXA) in assumed clinically equivalent doses towards the lowering of cortisol, osteocalcin (OC) and the stimulated rise of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) by granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
3 OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of prednisolone (PRED) and dexamethasone (DEXA) in assumed clinically equivalent doses towards the lowering of cortisol, osteocalcin (OC) and the stimulated rise of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) by granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
4 OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of prednisolone (PRED) and dexamethasone (DEXA) in assumed clinically equivalent doses towards the lowering of cortisol, osteocalcin (OC) and the stimulated rise of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) by granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
5 OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of prednisolone (PRED) and dexamethasone (DEXA) in assumed clinically equivalent doses towards the lowering of cortisol, osteocalcin (OC) and the stimulated rise of eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) by granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
6 Between 4 h and 10 h after administration of DEXA and PRED, the change in the area under the concentration-time curve (DeltaAUC4-10) of OC became 24.4% and 2.3% lower, respectively ( p<0.0001). Dexamethasone bone gamma-carboxyglutamate protein Homo sapiens
7 CONCLUSION: PRED and DEXA in formerly assumed clinically equivalent doses induced a similar suppression towards cortisol within the first 10 h, but had different actions towards blood concentrations of OC and ECP following G-CSF stimulation in healthy male subjects.
