Adolescence is characterized by rapid skeletal development and high demands for bone minerals. Though the stimulative effect
of calcitriol on intestinal calcium and phosphorus absorption is well understood, its effect on bone development is not completely
clear. It may be directly involved in the facilitation of calcium economy during this critical phase of skeletal development.
Therefore, we evaluated the serum concentrations of calcitriol in relation to skeletal development in a cross-sectional study
of 178 healthy Caucasian females during different pubertal stages, extending from childhood to young adulthood. In addition,
a subsample of 57 younger girls was followed for a 1-year period to evaluate the association among serum calcitriol, nutrition
parameters (dietary calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D), bone mass accumulation, and biochemical markers of bone turnover.
The serum calcitriol concentration in a cross-sectional sample was the highest during pubertal growth spurt (sexual maturity
index 3–4, age 11–13 years) (ANOVA: F = 2.4945; P= 0.0329). This correlated to the peak skeletal calcium accretion (g/year) and bone mass accumulation in total body and forearm.
In a longitudinal sample, there was a positive association between annual change in TBBMC (P= 0.0255); TBBMD (P= 0.0168); proximal radius (1/3 distance from styloid process) BMC (P= 0.0096); BMD (P= 0.0541), and baseline calcitriol level in forward stepwise regression analyses. The results of the forward stepwise regression
analyses with serum calcitriol as a dependent variable and different serum, urinary, and dietary parameters measured at baseline
(age 11 years, n = 114) and after 1 year (age 12 years, n = 57) showed that osteocalcin was positively associated with calcitriol
in both years; more so in a second year (P= 0.0514, P < 0.0001, respectively). Dietary vitamin D and phosphorus showed negative association with serum calcitriol at age 11, and
dietary Ca and P were selected at age 12. The results of this study show that calcitriol is a significant correlate of bone
mass accumulation during pubertal growth, presumably in response to the high requirements for calcium during this critical
phase of skeletal development.

Biochemical Responses of Bone Metabolism to 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D Administration in Black and White Women 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The basis for the racial difference in bone mass between black and white women is not known. Lower bone turnover, better
renal calcium conservation, and decreased sensitivity to parathyroid hormone (PTH) have been proposed as explanations. A dynamic
comparison of osteoblast function, utilizing stimulation by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], has not been tested between these two ethnic groups. We compared well-matched black (n= 15) and white (n= 15) premenopausal women, before and during 5 days of 1,25(OH)2D administration (1.0 μg/day) in order to assess dynamic indices of bone metabolism. As expected, at baseline, black women
had lower levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D and biochemical markers of bone turnover with slightly higher levels of PTH.
Black women also had superior renal calcium conservation than white women at baseline. In response to 1,25(OH)2D administration, black women had a slightly greater increase in serum calcium and greater decrement in PTH. Moreover, black
women showed a lesser increment in urinary calcium than white women and a more robust increase in two markers of bone formation
– osteocalcin and carboxyterminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen – than white women. There were no changes in bone resorption
indices in either race upon 1,25(OH)2D administration. These data provide preliminary evidence that black women conserve calcium more efficiently under both static
and dynamic conditions, and also appear to have better osteoblastic functional reserve than white women.

The effects of postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and vitamin D3 on vitamin D metabolites (25OHD and 1,25(OH)2D) were studied in a population-based prospective 1-year study. The serum concentrations of intact parathyroid hormone (PTH),
calcium, and phosphate were also studied. A total of 72 women were randomized into four treatment groups: HRT group (sequential
combination of 2 mg estradiol valerate and 1 mg cyproterone acetate), Vit D3 group (vitamin D3 300 IU/day + calcium lactate 500 mg/day), HRT + Vit D3 group (both above) and placebo group (calcium lactate 500 mg/day). Serum samples were taken in March–April, when vitamin
D formation from sunlight in Finland is minimal after the dark winter. Serum concentrations of 25OHD increased in the Vit
D3 group (33.5%, P < 0.001) and in the HRT + Vit D3 group (38.2%, P < 0.001) but had not changed significantly in the HRT and placebo groups at the 1-year follow-up examination. Serum concentrations
of calcitriol (1,25(OH)2D) increased, however, only in the HRT group (23.7%, P < 0.05), and remained unchanged in other groups. Serum concentrations of PTH decreased by 23.2% (P < 0.05) in the placebo group, but did not change significantly in the other three groups. The concentrations of serum calcium
increased in the nonhormone groups (P < 0.001), whereas serum phosphate concentrations decreased in the hormone groups (P < 0.05 and 0.001). Our results confirm the positive effect of 1 year of HRT on serum calcitriol. Vitamin D3 supplementation increased 25OHD concentrations, but did not affect calcitriol concentrations even though the initial levels
were low. Interestingly, the combination of HRT and vitamin D3 did not increase serum calcitriol concentrations as much as HRT alone.

The vitamin D endocrine system has been involved in the impairment of intestinal calcium absorption during aging. Alterations
in the nongenomic mechanism of calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3; [1,25(OH)2D3] have been recently evidenced. In enterocytes isolated from aged rats, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation of Ca2+ channels through the cAMP/PKA pathway is blunted. We have now investigated whether in vivo administration of calcitriol to senescent rats reverses the absence of hormonal effects in isolated intestinal cells. In
enterocytes from 20–24-month-old rats given 1,25(OH)2D3 for 3 days (30 ng/100 g bw/day), calcitriol (10−10 M, 3–5 minutes) stimulated Ca2+ uptake and intracellular cAMP to the same degree and protein quinase A (PKA) activity to a lesser degree than in enterocytes
from young animals. Significantly higher basal levels of cAMP and PKA detected in enterocytes from old rats were not affected
by prior injection of animals with 1,25(OH)2D3. When the aged rats were injected with 25(OH)D3, similar Ca2+ influx, cAMP, and PKA responses to in vitro stimulation with calcitriol were obtained. 1,25(OH)2D3-dependent changes in Ca2+ uptake by enterocytes from both young and old rats treated with calcitriol were totally suppressed by the cAMP antagonist
Rp-cAMPS, whereas the response to the agonist Sp-cAMPS was markedly depressed in aged animals. These results suggest that
intestinal resistance to nongenomic 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulation of duodenal cell Ca2+ uptake develops in rats upon aging and show that in vivo administration of 1,25(OH)2D3 or its precursor to senescent rats restores the ability of the hormone to stimulate duodenal cell calcium influx through
the cAMP messenger system.

High Bone Turnover is Associated with Low Bone Mass and Spinal Fracture in Postmenopausal Women 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A group of 366 healthy, white postmenopausal women, aged 50–81 years, mean age 66 years, were selected from the screened
population of Scandinavians who were part of a multicenter study of the efficacy of tiludronate, a new bisphosphonate, in
established postmenopausal osteoporosis. Eighty-eight women had a lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) above 0.860 g/cm2, and 278 women had a BMD below 0.860 g/cm2. Spinal fracture was diagnosed from lateral spine X-ray studies and defined as at least 20% height reduction (wedge, compression,
or endplate fracture) in at least one vertebra (T4–L4). Bone resorption was assessed by measurement of the urinary excretion
of type I collagen degradation products by the CrossLaps™ enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA). Bone formation was assessed by
ELISA measurement of the N-terminal-mid-fragment as well as the intact serum osteocalcin (OCN-MID), thus omitting the influence of the instability of osteocalcin caused by the labile 6 amino acid C-terminal sequence. The
women were divided into groups with high or low bone turnover according to the concentrations of urinary CrossLaps™ or OCN-MID. Women in the quartiles with the highest concentrations of CrossLaps [519 ± 119 μg/mmol (SD)] or OCN-MID [44.6 ± 7.5 ng/ml (SD)] had 10–16% lower spinal BMD compared with women in the lowest quartiles (CrossLaps 170 ± 48 μg/mmol
(SD), and OCN-MID [22.1 ± 3.0 ng/ml (SD)] (P < 0.0004). The prevalences of spinal fracture were 25 to 29% in the lowest quartiles, whereas the prevalences in the highest
quartiles were almost double—53–54% (P < 0.006). If the women were subgrouped according to spinal BMD and prevalence of spinal fracture, corresponding results were
found. Women with a BMD less than 0.860 g/cm2, without or with spinal fracture (n = 136 and n = 142), had 36–43% higher concentration of CrossLaps (P= 0.0001) and 11–15% higher concentration of OCN-MID (P < 0.02), as compared with women with a BMD above 0.860 g/cm2 and no spinal fracture (n = 84). In conclusion, the results indicate a strong association among high bone turnover, low bone
mass, and prevalence of spinal fracture, which supports the theory that high bone turnover is a risk factor for spinal fracture
and osteoporosis.

In order to establish whether calcium supplementation suppresses bone resorption in early postmenopausal women and whether
any response is related to calcium absorption status, we studied 22 healthy women (median age 52 years) all within 5 years
of the menopause. Urine was collected between 9.00 p.m. and 9.00 a.m., and 9.00 a.m. and 9.00 p.m., (2 days) and a fasting
blood and spot urine sample was obtained at 9 a.m. On the first day, 5 μCi of 45Ca in 250 ml water with 20 mg calcium carrier as the chloride was given at 9.00 a.m. and a further blood sample was obtained
at 10.00 a.m. to measure calcium absorption. A 1 g calcium load was given at 9.00 p.m., immediately before the second 24-hour
urine collection. There was a rise in plasma ionized calcium (1.18 ± 0.010 mmol/liter versus 1.21 ± 0.011 mmol/liter, P < 0.01) and a fall in plasma PTH (4.2 ± 0.34 pmol/liter versus 3.5 ± 0.31 pmol/liter, P < 0.01) from baseline after the calcium load, and a trend for the magnitude of the change in PTH to be inversely related
to calcium absorption (r =−0.33, P= 0.13). In the fasting spot urine samples, there were falls in hydroxyproline (OHPr/Cr; 14.6 ± 0.71 versus 12.6 ± 0.83, P < 0.001), pyridinoline (Pyr/Cr; 75 ± 2.8 versus 70 ± 3.5, P < 0.05), and deoxypyridinoline (Dpd/Cr; 22.7 ± 1.2 versus 19.5 ± 1.1, P < 0.005) after the calcium load. The calcium load suppressed urinary Dpd/Cr between 9.00 p.m. and 9.00 a.m. (P < 0.005), but not between 9.00 a.m. and 9.00 p.m. We conclude that acute administration of a 1 g calcium load suppresses
bone resorption in early postmenopausal women, probably by decreasing PTH secretion.

Although over 90% of hip fractures occur in patients over age 70, few data are available on femoral bone loss in this age
group. To examine the relationship between biochemical markers of bone turnover and femoral bone loss in the elderly, 36 female
and 17 male, healthy, community-dwelling elderly over age 65 (mean ± SD age: women 71 ± 4 years, men 75 ± 5 years) were followed
for 3 years. Annual bone mineral density measurements of the hip and lumbar spine by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)
were obtained and biochemical markers of bone resorption (urinary N-telopeptide crosslinks, free pyridinoline, total pyridinoline,
total deoxypyridinoline, and hydroxyproline) and bone formation (serum osteocalcin, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase) were
obtained at the end of year 3. In elderly women, longitudinal bone loss at the total hip was negatively correlated with markers
of bone resorption (r =−0.39 to −0.52, P < 0.05), bone formation (r =−0.38, P < 0.05), and age (r =−0.39, P < 0.05). Markers of bone resorption were correlated with markers of bone formation (r = 0.63 to 0.74, P < 0.01). In multiple regression analysis, urinary N-telopeptide crosslinks (marker of resorption), serum osteocalcin (marker
of formation), and serum parathyroid hormone explained 43% of the variability of bone loss at the total hip in women. These
parameters were not related to bone loss in men. We conclude that femoral bone loss increases with age in women over 65. Measurements
of specific biochemical markers of bone turnover are correlated with longitudinal bone loss in elderly women. These markers
may help identify women at greatest risk for bone loss who would benefit most from therapeutic interventions.

Biochemical markers of bone metabolism (bone markers) are used increasingly to monitor response to therapy and may be predictors
of bone loss and fractures. The relationship between fracture rates, which differ between countries, and the rate of bone
turnover has not been examined. Therefore, we explored the geographic variability of bone turnover in a selected, healthy
study population of 619 postmenopausal women, ages 40–61, participating in a clinical trial of raloxifene hydrochloride for
osteoporosis prevention. The subjects were distributed among 38 investigative sites in 10 countries (9–211 subjects/country)
on four continents (North America, n = 277, Europe, n = 168, Australia, n = 125, and Africa, n = 49). Specimens for serum
osteocalcin (OC), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BSAP), and urine type I collagen fragment/urinary creatinine ratio (CTX)
were handled in a uniform fashion and assayed in a central laboratory. Mean levels of OC (P < 0.001), BSAP (P= 0.006), and CTX (P < 0.001) varied significantly by country (ANOVA), with the lowest values typically in German and Spanish subjects and the
highest in American and Canadian subjects. The consistent pattern and wide ranges of mean bone marker values (OC 1.6-fold,
BSAP 1.7-fold, CTX 3.1-fold) between countries suggest clinically significant differences in bone turnover. Geographic differences
in bone markers were not explained by the determined potential confounders of age, years posthysterectomy, total serum cholesterol,
and serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). We conclude that bone marker values vary substantially by country in this selected
study population, suggesting systematic geographic differences in bone metabolism that potentially relate to osteoporotic
fracture rates.

Systematic Review of Randomized Trials of the Effect of Exercise on Bone Mass in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Studies of the effect of exercise programs on bone mass appear inconsistent. Our objective was to systematically review and
meta-analyze randomized trials of the effect of exercise on bone mass in pre- and postmenopausal women. A computerized MEDLINE
search was conducted for the years 1966–1997. Thirty-five randomized trials were identified. Meta-analytic methods were used
to statistically pool results of studies of the effect of impact (e.g., aerobics) and non-impact (e.g., weight training) exercise
on the lumbar spine and femoral neck. The most studied bone site was the lumbar spine in postmenopausal women (15 studies),
where both impact [1.6% bone loss prevented, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.0%–2.2%] and non-impact (1.0%, 95% CI: 0.4%–1.6%)
exercise programs had a positive effect. Results for the lumbar spine in premenopausal women (eight studies) were similar:
1.5% (95% CI: 0.6%–2.4%) less bone loss (or net gain) after impact exercise and 1.2% (95% CI: 0.7%–1.7%) after non-impact
exercise. Impact exercise programs appeared to have a positive effect at the femoral neck in postmenopausal women (five studies),
1.0% (95% CI: 0.4%–1.6%) bone loss prevented, and possibly in premenopausal women, 0.9% (95% CI: −0.2%–2.0%) bone loss prevented.
There were too few trials to draw conclusions from meta-analyses of the effect of nonimpact exercise on the neck of femur.
This systematic review of randomized trials shows that both impact and non-impact exercise have a positive effect at the lumbar
spine in pre- and postmenopausal women. Impact exercise probably has a positive effect at the femoral neck. More studies are
required to determine the optimal intensity and type of exercise.

Prevention of fractures is the only way to drastically reduce osteoporosis-related health expenditures. In order to optimize
the cost/benefit ratio of a strategy of prevention, it is essential to identify, as early as possible, women who will develop
fractures later in their life. Therefore, and since postmenopausal bone loss is an asymptomatic process, screening procedures
should detect, at the time of the menopause, women whose postmenopausal bone loss is higher than the mean, and will, a couple
of years later, exhibit a low mineral content and a subsequent high risk for fractures. For 3 years we have followed a cohort
of 92 healthy women who had undergone menopause less than 36 months previously. By a multivariate discriminant analysis based
on the differences in lumbar bone density, assessed by dual photon absorptiometry, and in a few routine biochemical parameters
(serum phosphorus, estrone, androstenedione, and urine calcium) observed during the first 6 months of the study, we have been
able to correctly predict the rate of spinal bone loss, observed at the end of the 3 years, in 76% of the subjects. All of
the women who presented a bone loss higher than 10% over the 3 years were correctly isolated by our discriminant functions
after 6 months of follow-up. We conclude that a measurement of lumbar bone mineral density coupled with a few routine biochemical
determinations, repeated twice at a 6-month interval in healthy postmenopausal women, can isolate 100% of postmenopausal ``fast
bone losers' with an overall specificity of 76%.

Calcitriol has been widely used in the management of osteoporosis, but its efficiency is a matter of controversy. It is not
known whether combinations of calcitriol and antiresorptive agents such as etidronate and calcitonin are superior to calcitriol
alone in the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis. To make this determination, 30 Turkish women with postmenopausal osteoporosis
between 45 and 68 years of age were randomized to receive either intermittent cyclical etidronate (400 mg/day, for 14 days)
followed by 60 days of cyclical calcitriol therapy 0.25 μg twice daily (group 1; n= 10), or calcitriol 0.25 μg twice daily (group 2; n= 10), or calcitriol 0.25 μg/day in combination with 100 IU intranasal salmon calcitonin taken every other day (group 3; n= 10) through a 1-year period. Bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine (L2 to L4) was determined for each patient by dual-photon
absorptiometry (153Gd) at baseline, after 6 months, and at the end of the study. There was no significant difference among groups with respect
to mean spinal BMD at baseline, after 6, and after 12 months. No significant spinal BMD changes occurred in any group from
baseline, after 6 months, and after 12 months. Four patients in groups 1 and 2 and five patients in group 3 developed hypercalcemia
at least once during therapy. Hypercalciuria occurred at least once in 9, 10, and 7 patients in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
One patient in group 2 developed a renal stone at the end of the study. Mean urine hydroxyproline levels did not change significantly
in any group with respect to baseline. The data suggest that one-year treatment with calcitriol, given either alone or in
combination with antiresorptive agents, does not improve spinal BMD in Turkish women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and
is associated with a high rate of adverse events.

A detailed examination of calcitropic hormones and biochemical markers of bone turnover, serum chemistry, and blood hematology
was performed in 75 postmenopausal women allocated to two groups: placebo plus calcium citrate (400 mg Ca B.I.D.) (n = 36)
or intermittent slow-release sodium fluoride (SRNaF, 25 mg B.I.D.) plus calcium citrate (n = 39). After 2 years of therapy,
a significant reduction in serum immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (PTH) was seen for both groups (43 ± 18 SD–30 ± 11 ng/liter,
in placebo and 46 ± 24–36 ± 10, in SRNaF P < 0.0001 for both groups). Serum 1,25(OH)2D significantly fell in placebo-treated patients (91 ± 31–75 ± 34 pmol/liter, P= 0.001) but did not change for SRNaF-treated patients. This difference in response between placebo and SRNaF-treated groups
was significant, P= 0.005. Urinary hydroxyproline significantly declined during treatment in both groups (130 ± 61–76 ± 38 μmol/day, for placebo
and 138 ± 84–84 ± 38 for SRNaF, P= 0.001). Similar decreases in urinary N-telopeptide of type I collagen were also observed for both groups (305 ± 192–252
± 197 nmoles BCE/day for placebo and 356 ± 230–220 ± 197, P= 0.0001 for SRNaF). Serum carboxyterminal propeptide of type I collagen (PICP) declined significantly in both the placebo
and SRNaF groups (118 ± 38–101 ± 36 μg/liter, and 116 ± 47–105 ± 39, P= 0.0027). Serum osteocalcin did not change significantly for either group, but bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BS-ALPase),
another marker of bone formation, demonstrated a significant fall in the placebo group at 2 years of therapy (16.2 ± 6.7 U/liter–12.1
± 3.5, P= 0.009) and a small increase in the SRNaF-treated patients (13.0 ± 4.1–15.0 ± 4.5). The observed difference in response of
BS-ALPase between the placebo and treated groups was significant (P= 0.007). There were no significant changes within or between treatment groups for blood hematology or serum chemistries.
Mean values for all parameters remained within established normal ranges. These findings suggest that administration of calcium
citrate inhibited PTH secretion and thereby reduced bone resorption in both groups, indicated by a decline in serum PTH, urinary
hydroxyproline, and N-telopeptide. A low turnover state of bone may have been produced in the placebo group taking calcium
citrate alone, since serum PICP, BS-ALPase, and 1,25(OH)2D also decreased. The addition of SRNaF prevented serum 1,25(OH)2D from falling by an unknown mechanism. However, its anabolic action on the skeleton was best reflected by changes in BS-ALPase.
Moreover, SRNaF appeared to exert no deleterious effects on blood chemistries or hematology during 2 years of administration.

Risk of Calcium Oxalate Nephrolithiasis after Calcium or Combined Calcium and Calcitriol Supplementation in Postmenopausal Women 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
S. Domrongkitchaiporn B. Ongphiphadhanakul W. Stitchantrakul N. Piaseu S. Chansirikarn G. Puavilai R. Rajatanavin 《Osteoporosis international》2000,11(6):486-492
Although calcium supplementation can cause hypercalciuria, the risk of nephrolithiasis has been shown to decrease rather
than increase among subjects who had a higher calcium intake. Hypercalciuria is also a well-established side effect of calcitriol
administration. However, the risk of nephrolithiasis is not well defined. The present study was undertaken to prospectively
determine the effect of calcium with or without calcitriol on physicochemical risk factors associated with calcium oxalate
nephrolithiasis in Thai postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Subjects consisted of 53 Thai women more than 10 years postmenopausal
who were randomly allocated to receive 750 mg of calcium carbonate supplement alone (n= 28) or 750 mg of calcium carbonate plus 0.5 mg calcitriol (n= 25) daily. Mean ± SEM for age was 65.3 ± 1.1 years, body weight 53.5 ± 1.3 kg. Urine samples for biochemical assays were
collected at baseline and 3 months after treatment. Supersaturation for calcium oxalate stone formation was assessed from
the 24 h urine constituents by the Tiselius’s index, AP(CaOx). Three months of calcium supplement alone resulted in a modest,
but not significant, increase in urinary calcium (baseline, 2.90 ± 0.43 mmol/day; after treatment 3.58 ± 0.54 mmol/day) with
no change in urinary oxalate, citrate or magnesium. In contrast, calcium together with calcitriol caused a significant increase
in urinary calcium (baseline, 2.87 ± 0.41 mmol/day; after treatment, 4.08 ± 0.57 mmol/day; p<0.05). No significant change in other urine constituents after treatment with calcium and calcitriol was detected. Therefore,
AP(CaOx) did not significantly increase either after calcium alone (baseline, 1.17 ± 0.39; after treatment, 1.36 ± 0.28) or
after calcium plus calcitriol (baseline, 1.09 ± 0.17; after treatment, 1.09 ± 0.19). However, after treatments, 12 subjects
(23%) – 6 receiving calcium supplement alone and 6 receiving calcium plus calcitriol supplement – had high AP(CaOx) values
(greater than the upper limit of 95% CI for AP(CaOx) derived from non-stone-forming Thai women). The post-treatment/baseline
ratio was 3.21 ± 0.74 for urinary calcium, 1.01 ± 0.19 for urinary oxalate, and 2.23 ± 0.42 (median 1.15) for AP(CaOx). The
post-treatment/baseline ratio of calcium, but not for urinary oxalate, had a significant correlation with the post-treatment/baseline
ratio of AP(CaOx). Our findings suggest that the alteration in the risk of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis based on urinary
composition is related to the alteration in urinary calcium. The risk of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis does not increase
significantly after calcium or combined calcium and calcitriol supplement in the majority of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

Bisphosphonates have been used effectively to treat established osteoporosis and prevent postmenopausal bone loss. However,
the optimal manner of its administration—whether cyclic or continuous—has not been well established. This study investigated
the efficacy of cyclic and continuous oral administration of clodronate in 54 newly identified osteopenic postmenopausal women
in a randomized, double-blind, crossover fashion. The participants were randomly separated into two groups. The cyclic group
(n = 29) received 800 mg twice daily of oral clodronate for 2 weeks every 3 months for the first 12 months followed by placebo
for the second 12 months. The continuous group (n = 25) received placebo in the first 12 months and ingested 400 mg of clodronate
once daily for the second 12 months. The urinary amino-terminal (NTX™) and carboxy-terminal (CrossLaps™) cross-linked fragments
of type I collagen, both markers of bone resorption, showed a marked decrease (25–50%) with both regimens during the period
of active treatment. In the cyclic group, the levels of these two markers increased in the second 12 months with placebo,
but did not return to the baseline completely. However, bone mineral density (BMD), determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
(DXA), showed no significant change of BMD at various sites after 1 year of active treatment in both groups. Thoracic and
lumbar spine X-ray showed no new vertebral fracture in either group after 2 years of treatment. With the two treatment protocols
in this study, oral clodronate was effective in decreasing postmenopausal bone resorption, causing no significant changes
in BMD at various sites.

Association of Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) Polymorphism with Bone Mineral Density in Postmenopausal Japanese Women 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0

The pathogenesis of osteoporosis is controlled by genetic and environmental factors. Considering the high prevalence of osteoporosis
in homocystinuria, abnormal homocysteine metabolism would contribute to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis. It is known that
the polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), the enzyme catalyzing the reduction of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate
to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, correlates with hyperhomocysteinemia. In this study, we examined the association of this polymorphism
with bone mineral density (BMD). BMD was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 307 postmenopausal women. MTHFR
A/V polymorphism was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). We compared
BMD, clinical characteristics, and bone metabolic markers among MTHFR groups (AA, AV, VV). The groups did not differ in terms of baseline data. The values of lumbar spine BMD and total body BMD were as follows:
lumbar spine: AA, 0.91 ± 0.18, AV, 0.88 ± 0.16, VV, 0.84 ± 0.14 g/cm2; total body: AA, 0.97 ± 0.11, AV, 0.96 ± 0.11, VV, 0.93 ± 0.09 g/cm2. In the VV genotype, lumbar spine BMD values were significantly lower than those of the women with the AA genotype (P= 0.016) and total body BMD was significantly lower than those of the women with AA genotype (P= 0.03) and AV genotype (P= 0.04). This is the first report that suggests that the VV genotype of MTHFR is one of the genetic risk factors for low BMD.

We examined the effects of a total body resistive training program (RT) on total and regional bone mineral density (BMD)
in older women. Twenty-seven healthy postmenopausal women (mean age 62 ± 1 years) participated in a strength training program
three times/week for 16 weeks. Strength was assessed before and after training by either one or three repetition maximum (1RM
and 3RM) tests. Both upper and lower body strength significantly increased by 36–65% and 32–98%, respectively, after training.
There was a small but significant decrease in body weight and body mass index after training (P < 0.05), with no change in the waist-to-hip ratio. BMD, assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, did not change over
the duration of the training period in the anterioposterior spine (L2–L4), femoral neck, Ward's triangle, and greater trochanter. BMD of the total body, lateral spine (B2–B4), and the regions of the radius (1/3 radius and ultradistal radius) also did not fall in subsets of these women. Muscular
strength of both the leg and chest press were significantly associated with L2–L4, femoral neck, Ward's triangle, and greater trochanter BMD (range r = 0.57–0.84, all P < 0.005). Markers of bone turnover, namely, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and urinary aminoterminal cross-linked
telopeptide of type I collagen did not change significantly. In conclusion, a resistive training program maintains BMD and
improves muscular strength in healthy, older women. This may be important in preventing the negative health outcomes associated
with the age-related loss of bone density.

Serum levels of cross-linked N-telopeptides (NTx) of bone collagen, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and intact parathyroid hormone
(PTH) were determined in 64 premenopausal (PRM) and 86 postmenopausal (PSM) women living in northern Nigeria. Serum NTx values
were correlated with ALP activity (r = 0.31–0.58, P < 0.01) and PTH (0.32–0.35, P < 0.01)) in all of the subjects studied, and were also related to age (−0.47, P < 0.001) and body mass index (−0.45, P < 0.001) in PRM women. Menopause had the effect of increasing the circulating concentrations of NTx and ALP activity by 15%
(P= 0.001) and 11% (P= 0.02), respectively; however, serum levels of PTH were not different between these two groups of women. Compared with Caucasian
counterparts matched for age and body mass index, PSM Nigerian women had significantly increased circulating concentrations
of NTx (21.7 versus 16.2 nmol BCE/liter, P= 0.01) and demonstrated a trend towards higher ALP activities and PTH levels. These results indicate that (1) discrete reference
intervals should be defined for biochemical markers of bone metabolism in African populations, (2) Nigerian women have relatively
higher rates of bone turnover, and (3) further investigation of the implications of increased serum NTx should be undertaken
using physical methods such as dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and bone ultrasound attenuation.

Calcitriol is used in the treatment of osteoporosis but the indications for its use have not been clearly defined. Because
it stimulates calcium absorption, we have tended to select osteoporotic patients with low calcium absorption for this therapy
and now report the results. We measured the hourly fractional rate of calcium absorption (α) with 45Ca and fasting urinary calcium/creatinine (Ca/Cr) and hydroxyproline/creatinine (OHPr/Cr) in 103 postmenopausal women aged
68 (0.67SE) years with vertebral compression fractures (77) or forearm or vertebral bone density below the young normal range
(26). They were given 0.25 μg daily of calcitriol (Rocaltrol, Roche, Basle, Switzerland) with a 1 g calcium supplement daily
for 6–12 weeks, when the biochemical tests were repeated. Initial OHPr/Cr was inversely related to initial α (P= 0.001) and positively to initial Ca/Cr (P < 0.001). α rose on therapy from 0.47 (0.018) to 0.59 (0.018) per hour (P < 0.001) and OHPr/Cr fell in the whole group from 19.1 (0.83) to 13.8 (0.58) (P < 0.001). The change in α on therapy (corrected for the ``regression to the mean effect') was inversely related to initial
α (P < 0.001) as was the change in OHPr/Cr (P= 0.001). There was no relationship, however, between initial Ca/Cr and either the rise in α or the fall in OHPr/Cr on therapy.
The data support the concept that low calcium absorption is a cause of negative calcium balance in postmenopausal osteoporosis
and that the effectiveness of calcitriol therapy is inversely related to the initial rate of calcium absorption.

Bone Mineral Density and Biochemical Markers of Bone Turnover in Peri- and Postmenopausal Women 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Bone mineral density (BMD) measured by densitometry is the elective parameter for the diagnosis of osteopenia and osteoporosis.
Biochemical markers have been proposed as sensitive indicators of high bone turnover and for monitoring response to antiresorptive
treatment. We conducted a retrospective study to investigate the values of biochemical markers of bone metabolism with a view
to early diagnosis of osteoporosis and monitoring of hormone replacement and calcitonin therapy. The subjects were 415 women,
mean age 51 ± 8 years (43–62 years) in peri- and postmenopause, recruited at the Menopause Center of Obstetrics and Gynecology
Department of Siena University and divided in five groups. Bone densitometry was performed in all subjects and blood samples
were taken for assayed biochemical markers, that is, [osteocalcin (OC), parathyroid hormone (PTH), type 1 procollagen (PICP),
and calcitonin (CT)].
Three groups of women were divided into two subgroups: those with normal and those with low BMD (<1 SD). Basal concentrations
of PCP1, OC, PTH, and CT were compared in the various groups. Two groups of postmenopausal women with BMD below the normal
were treated with estrogen replacement therapy and unmodified eel calcitonin.
We evaluated whether some of these biochemical markers of bone turnover could help identify women with low BMD and whether
they could be useful for monitoring the results of antiresorptive therapies.
Markers of bone formation (PICP and OC) make it possible to distinguish women with high turnover who are at risk for osteoporosis
from women with low turnover in menopause. A good correlation was also found between changes in levels of these markers and
changes in BMD during treatments, which suggests that the PICP and OC would be useful for monitoring response to antiresorptive
therapy.

It has been reported that vitamin K2 (menaquinone-4) promoted 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)-induced mineralization and enhanced γ-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla)-containing osteocalcin accumulation in cultured human osteoblasts.
In the present study, we investigated whether menaquinone-4 (MK-4) was metabolized in human osteoblasts to act as a cofactor
of γ-glutamyl carboxylase. Both conversions of MK-4 to MK-4 2,3-epoxide (epoxide) and epoxide to MK-4 were observed in cell
extracts of cultured human osteoblasts. The effect of 1,25(OH)2D3 and warfarin on the vitamin K cycle to cultured osteoblasts were examined. With the addition of 1 nM 1,25(OH)2D3 or 25 μM warfarin in cultured osteoblasts, the yield of epoxide from MK-4 increased. However, the conversion of epoxide to
MK-4 was strongly inhibited by the addition of warfarin (2.5–25 μM), whereas it was almost not inhibited by 1,25(OH)2D3 (0.1–10 nM). To clarify the mechanism for this phenomenon, a cell-free assay system was studied. Osteoblast microsomes were
incubated with 10 μM epoxide in the presence or absence of warfarin and 1,25(OH)2D3. Epoxide reductase, one of the enzymes in the vitamin K cycle was strongly inhibited by warfarin (2.5–25 μM), whereas it
was not affected by 1,25(OH)2D3 (0.1–1 nM). Moreover, there was no effect of pretreatment of osteoblasts with 1 nM 1,25(OH)2D3 on the activity of epoxide reductase. However, the activity of epoxidase, that is the γ-glutamyl carboxylase was induced
by the pretreatment of osteoblasts with 1 nM 1,25(OH)2D3. In the present study, it was demonstrated that the vitamin K metabolic cycle functions in human osteoblasts as well as in
the liver, the post-translational mechanism, by which 1,25(OH)2D3 caused mineralization in cooperation with vitamin K2 was clarified.
