The osteoclasts in Paget's disease are abnormal both in num- ber and size and show nuclear inclusions as well as cytoplasmic inclusions that suggest a viral etiology for Paget's disease. Use of in vitro model systems for examining osteoclast physiology in Paget's disease has shown that these cells have an increased rate of formation, express high levels of IL-6, IL-6 receptor, and NF-IL-6, as well as most recently, the c-FOS protooncogene. 31 The precur- sors for these pagetic osteoclasts have several abnormalities includ- ing hyperresponsivity to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D , presence of 3 measles virus nucleocapsid transcripts, and hyperresponsivity to the ...
