Purposed model of action of CBZ on OS in bone microenvironment. In non treated patients, OS cells can proliferate thanks to c-MET signalling; RANK-positive OS cells could increase their proliferation rate taking advantage of RANKL released from OBLs. In treated patients, CBZ inhibits c-MET pathway and decreases the proliferation of all OS cells; moreover, decreasing RANKL and increasing OPG productions, CBZ causes a stronger inhibition of the proliferation of RANK-positive OS cells.
