Before And After

Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is the most common endocrinopathy in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1). Persistent levels of increased parathyroid hormone (PTH) result in a higher incidence of osteopenia and osteoporosis compared to the general population. Surgical removal of hyper-functioning parathyroid tissue is the therapy of choice. This retrospective study evaluated the effect of parathyroidectomy (PTX) on bone metabolism and bone mass in two series of patients with MEN1 PHPT and sporadic PHPT (sPHPT) by comparing bone metabolism-related biochemical markers and bone mineral density (BMD) before and after surgery. Our data confirmed, in a higher number of cases than in previously published studies, the efficacy of PTX, not only to rapidly restore normal levels of PTH and calcium, but also to normalize biochemical parameters of bone resorption and bone formation, and to improve spine and femur bone mass, in both MEN1 PHPT and sPHPT. Evaluation of single-patient BMD changes after surgery indicates an individual variable bone mass improvement in a great majority of MEN1 PHPT patients. In MEN1 patients, PTX is strongly suggested in the presence of increased PTH and hypercalcemia to prevent/reduce the early-onset bone mass loss and grant, in young patients, the achievement of the bone mass peak; routine monitoring of bone metabolism and bone mass should start from adolescence. Therapy with anti-fracture drugs is indicated in MEN1 patients with BMD lower than the age-matched normal values.

The development of atherosclerosis is closely related to the calcification of the vessel intima and fibrous plaques, being a complex and multifactorial process, in which the markers of bone formation and resorption play an important role. Objective. To study the biochemical markers of bone metabolism in men with stable coronary heart disease (CHD). Material and methods. The study included 102 men with verified CHD. Data were evaluated by densitometry, coronary angiography, multispiral computed tomography, color duplex scanning of brachiocephalic arteries, serum lipids (total cholesterol, triglycerides [TG], high-density [LHD] and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol), concentrationsin the blood of osteocalcin (OC), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), cathepsin K and C-telopeptides (CTx). Results. Concentrations of BAP, cathepsin K and CTx in patients with CHD were significantly higher than in men without CHD. The concentration of OC in men with normal bone mineral density was significantly lower than in patients with osteopenic syndrome. There was a direct correlation between OC and antiatherogenic HDL cholesterol and the inverse correlation between OC and TG, CTx and TG. There was no correlation between the level of bone remodeling markers and coronary artery (CA) lesion variant and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis on SYNTAX scale. The correlation analysis did not reveal the connection of biochemical markers of bone metabolism with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and calcification and thickness of intima-media complex of carotid arteries. Absolute values of bone formation indices (BAP, OC) were significantly higher in patients with severe СA calcification than in patients without signs of calcification. Summary. Increased rates of osteogenesis and osteoresorption characterize the accelerated process of bone metabolism and indicate in favor of high rates of bone loss in men with CHD, which confirms the likelihood of common pathophysiological mechanisms of bone resorption and arterial calcification.

Markers Of Bone Formation

The influence of general and local vibration on bone remodeling processes is investigated. The interrelations between the long - term exposure of industrial vibration and indicators of bone mineral density (T-and Z-criteria), biochemical markers of bone formation (osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase) and bone resorption (ionized calcium, calcium/creatinine) were established.

AbstractMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short (18–24 nucleotides) non-coding RNA sequences that regulate gene expression via binding of messenger RNA. It is estimated that miRNAs co-regulate the expression of more than 70% of all human genes, many of which fulfil important roles in bone metabolism and muscle function. In-vitro and in-vivo experiments have shown that the targeted loss of miRNAs in distinct bone cell types (osteoblasts and osteoclasts) results in altered bone mass and bone architecture. These results emphasize the biological relevance of miRNAs for bone health.MiRNAs are not only considered as novel bone biomarkers because of their biological importance to bone metabolism, but also on the basis of other favorable properties: 1) Secretion of miRNAs from cells enables “minimally invasive” detection in biological fluids such as serum. 2) High stability of miRNAs in serum enables the retrospective analysis of frozen blood specimens. 3) Quantification of miRNAs in the serum is based on the RT-PCR - a robust method that is considered as the gold standard for the analysis of nucleic acids in clinical diagnostics.With regard to osteoporosis, it has been shown that many of the known risk factors are characterized by distinct miRNA profiles in the affected tissues: i) age-related loss of bone mass, ii) sarcopenia, iii) changes in estrogen metabolism and related changes Loss of bone mass, and iv) diabetes. Therefore, numerous studies in recent years have dealt with the characterization of miRNAs in the serum of osteoporosis patients and healthy controls, and were able to identify recurring miRNA patterns that are characteristic of osteoporosis. These novel biomarkers have great potential for the diagnosis and prognosis of osteoporosis and its clinical outcomes.The aim of this article is to give a summary of the current state of knowledge on the research and application of miRNA biomarkers in osteoporosis.
