Vascular injury is considered an important pathological process during glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). In this study, we tried to investigate whether the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is triggered in the GC-induced endotheliocyte (EC) apoptosis and ONFH. The results showed that a GC upregulated the expression of ER stress-related proteins, and PERK-CHOP signaling played an important role and induced EC apoptosis. The inhibition of PERK by GSK2656157 significantly decreased the GC-induced EC apoptosis in vitro and in vivo, thus protecting a rat model from vascular injury and significantly preventing GC-induced ONFH.
