Type I collagen is the major component of bone matrix; circulating carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (P-I-CP) levels reflect type I collagen synthesis in tissues and may be an useful index to investigate bone metabolism. We measured P-I-CP by a new radioimmunoassay in 300 healthy children and adolescents and in 40 healthy adults to provide reference data for P-I-CP values. In addition, 79 patients with diagnosed disorders of phospho-calcium metabolism (rickets, vitamin D deficient and vitamin D resistant, hyperparathyroidism, hypo- and pseudo-hypoparathyroidism, osteopenia) were evaluated. In the healthy subjects, serum P-I-CP values were higher in children than in adults; variations of P-I-CP levels were observed according to age and sexual maturation: higher values were found in the first years of life and during pubertal development; pubertal increase reflects the different timing of pubertal development in the two sexes. P-I-CP levels were increased in primary hyperparathyroidism and reduced in diseases related to impaired secretion or action of parathyroid hormone. Higher P-I-CP levels were found in vitamin D deficient and vitamin D resistant rickets. P-I-CP was reduced in anorexia nervosa and during chronic glucocorticoid treatment while it was increased in thyrotoxic osteoporosis. In idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis, P-I-CP values ranged from reduced to increased values. We conclude that P-I-CP may represent an additional biochemical marker of bone metabolism. Since age-related variations are present, reference data for the various ages are need for clinical application of this assay.

Bone loss and the serum markers of bone metabolism were studied in 22 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and 108 patients with renal hyperparathyroidism. The parameters of bone loss were bone mineral density in the distal radius and lumbar vertebrae, measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and bone mass index (sigma GS/D) and the metacarpal index, in the second metacarpal bone, measured by the digital image processing method. Alkaline phosphatase (AIP), intact osteocalcin (OC), and the carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP) were measured as serum markers of bone formation, while tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP) and the carboxyterminal pyridinoline cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP) were measured as serum markers of bone resorption. Bone loss and elevated markers of bone metabolism were observed both in patients with skeletal symptoms and in those without. Furthermore, the decrease in the cortical bone mass was more predominant than that of the trabecular bone. As markers of bone formation, AIP and OC seemed to be more sensitive than PICP, and as markers of bone resorption, ICTP appeared to be more sensitive than TRACP. Thus, a close correlation was observed between bone loss and the markers of bone formation and resorption.

The influence of chronic and acute exposure to parathyroid hormone (PTH) on formation and breakdown of type I collagen, using two recently developed radioimmunoassays for serum PICP (the carboxyterminal propeptide of type I procollagen) and serum ICTP (the carboxyterminal telopeptide of type I collagen), have been evaluated. Fasting morning values were obtained from 18 women with primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) and an equal number of age-matched, healthy controls. A 24-hour infusion of synthetic human parathyroid hormone (PTH 1-38) was performed in 14 healthy females. The patients with HPT had higher values for serum ICTP than the controls (6.0 +/- 3.0 and 4.1 +/- 2.1 micrograms/liter; P < 0.05), whereas the serum PICP concentrations were not different (170 +/- 72 and 151 +/- 65 micrograms/liter; n.s.). During infusion of PTH in healthy subjects, there was an increase of the serum ICTP concentrations (from 3.6 +/- 1.3 to 4.4 +/- 1.8 micrograms/liter; P < 0.001) whereas those of serum PICP decreased (from 185 +/- 78 to 118 +/- 42 micrograms/liter; P < or = 0.0001). The increase of serum ICTP during infusion of PTH was positively related to the increase of serum calcium and other indices of bone resorption, i.e., fasting urinary excretions of hydroxyproline and calcium. The decrease of serum PICP was also related to the changes of serum ICTP and hydroxyproline in urine, serum calcium, and alkaline phosphatase but not to osteocalcin, an established marker of osteoblastic activity. The findings support the fact that serum ICTP is a valuable method for evaluating bone resorption and is also easy to perform.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have used a new enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) to measure the urinary excretion of type I collagen peptides (CrossLaps) released during bone matrix degradation in a sample of healthy adults comprising 146 women and 60 men, aged 31-89 yr, and in patients with metabolic bone disease. The intra- and interassay coefficients of variation were less than 10% and 13%, respectively. The recovery of CrossLaps antigen from urine samples ranged from 92-115%, and the ELISA was linear for serial sample dilutions. The CrossLaps assay does not cross-react with either free pyridinoline (Pyr) or free deoxypyridinoline (D-Pyr). CrossLaps measured by ELISA and the total excretion of Pyr measured by high performance liquid chromatography were highly correlated in normal women (n = 91; r = 0.73; P < 0.001). Urinary CrossLaps excretion increased with age in women, but not in men. In women, the menopause was reflected by a mean 141% increase in CrossLaps excretion [from an average 217 to 524 micrograms/mmol creatinine (Cr)] that was higher than the mean increase in total D-Pyr (+91%) and total Pyr (+47%) measured by HPLC and the mean increase in bone alkaline phophatase (+48%) and osteocalcin (+41%). Urinary CrossLaps excretion was increased from control values in Paget's disease (n = 32; mean, 1810 +/- 2300 micrograms/mmol Cr; P < 0.001), in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (n = 10; mean, 780 +/- 380 micrograms/mmol Cr; P < 0.001), and in patients with hyperthyroidism (n = 27; mean, 1280 +/- 970 micrograms/mmol Cr; P < 0.001), with Z-scores (number of SD from the mean of sex- and age-matched controls) of 4.4 +/- 6.6, 1.5 +/- 1.2, and 6.7 +/- 6.5, respectively. In patients with Paget's disease, CrossLaps values were highly correlated with urinary hydroxyproline levels (r = 0.91; P < 0.001), and the decrease in urinary CrossLaps excretion was greater than that in urinary hydroxyproline (-71% vs. -17%; P < 0.001) after 3 days of i.v. treatment with the bisphosphonate pamidronate. In patients with hyperthyroidism, CrossLaps excretion was elevated above the normal range in most patients (78%) and returned to normal within 1 month of treatment for hyperthyroidism. It is concluded that this new convenient assay represents a sensitive and specific index of the bone resorption rate, and that it should be useful for the clinical investigation and therapeutic monitoring of patients with osteoporosis and other metabolic bone diseases.

We have studied the levels of a new biochemical marker of bone resorption, carboxyterminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP), in 26 healthy control subjects, 15 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and 17 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (secondary HPT). Levels of ICTP in PHPT and secondary HPT have been correlated with those of serum tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), another biochemical marker of bone turnover, and with serum levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). The ICTP levels of the control group were 2.07 +/- 0.58 micrograms l-1, n = 26, range 1.3-3.2. They were independent of sex and age in the studied age range (30-62 years). The ICTP levels of PHPT patients were 3.5 +/- 3.5 micrograms l-1, mean +/- SD, range 0.5-12.2 micrograms l-1, significantly higher than those of control subjects (p < 0.05). We found a significant linear correlation between values of ICTP and iPTH levels (p < 0.01), between values of ICTP and serum activity of TRAP (p < 0.01) and between iPTH and TRAP levels (p < 0.01) in patients with PHPT. The ICTP levels in patients with secondary HPT were higher than those of patients with PHPT, 46 +/- 37 micrograms l-1, range 12-167 micrograms l-1 (p < 0.001) due to the impaired renal clearance of this peptide. We did not find a significant linear correlation between values of ICTP and iPTH levels in the serum of patients with secondary HPT, although we found a significant correlation between levels of ICTP and levels of TRAP, both biochemical markers of bone turnover.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In this study, we investigated the relation between calcium kinetic indices of bone remodeling (resorption rate, r; and formation rate, m, respectively) and two serum markers of type I collagen turnover: the pyridinoline cross-linked carboxyterminal telopeptide domains of type I collagen (S-ICTP a marker of bone matrix degradation) and the carboxyterminal propeptide of human type I procollagen (S-PICP, a marker of bone matrix formation). We studied three groups: (i) healthy controls (n = 19), (ii) a mixed group of high and low-turnover bone diseases without mineralization defects (myxedema, thyrotoxicosis and primary hyperparathyroidism n = 38), and (iii) osteoporosis (n = 52). In healthy controls, a significant regression of S-PICP on m was obtained (R = 0.53, SEE/Y = 0.44, P < 0.02). Significant regressions were also demonstrable in high- and low-turnover bone disease (R = 0.50, P < 0.001), SEE/Y = 61%) and osteoporosis (R = 0.49, P < 0.001, SEE/Y = 50%). In controls the regression coefficient for the regression of S-ICTP on r was 0.19 (NS), in high and low turnover bone disease 0.66, (SEE/Y = 59%, P < 0.001) and in the osteoporotic group 0.40 (SEE/Y = 61%, P < 0.01). We conclude that S-PICP and S-ICTP reflect whole skeletal bone formation and resorption rates in a variety of metabolic bone diseases including osteoporosis.

Type I collagen makes up more than 90% of bone matrix. Therefore, analysis of antigens related to collagen formation and degradation in bone should provide good and specific estimates of both bone resorption and bone formation rates. In this study we measured serum levels of the pyridinoline cross-linked telopeptide domain of type I collagen (ICTP) as a marker of bone resorption and serum carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP) as a marker of bone formation. Serum levels of the two antigens were correlated to histomorphometric indices of bone resorption and bone formation calculated from iliac crest bone biopsies in a group of 18 individuals with high- and low-turnover bone disease (myxedema, primary hyperparathyroidism, and thyrotoxicosis). After logarithmic transformation the regression of S-ICTP on volume-referent resorption rate (BRs/R/BV) was significant (r = 0.61, p < 0.01, SEM/Y = 56%). S-ICTP also showed a significant regression on the volume-referent cancellous bone balance (r = -0.45, p < 0.05, SEM/Y = 412%). S-PICP was significantly correlated to the mineral appositional rate (r = 0.53, p < 0.05) and volume-referent bone formation rate (r = 0.61, p < 0.01, SEM/Y = 48%). The correlation to bone turnover as expressed in the activation frequency was also highly significant (r = 0.61, p < 0.01, SEM/Y = 51%). No significant correlation with wall thickness or bone balance was demonstrable per remodeling cycle. Thus, assays employing antigens that reflect collagen formation and degradation are useful instruments for the evaluation of rates of bone remodeling in metabolic bone disease.

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the serum levels of two new markers, and to compare their clinical usefulness with two conventional markers. Healthy women and patients with aberrant bone metabolism were evaluated for serum or urine levels of different bone markers. We measured serum levels of the pyridinoline cross-linked telopeptide domain of type I collagen (S-ICTP) and carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (S-PICP) as markers of bone resorption and formation, respectively. These levels were compared to the concentrations of serum bone gamma-carboxyglutamic acid protein (S-BGP) and total urinary pyridinium cross-links (U-PYD). The control group included 222 premenopausal and postmenopausal women, and the disease groups consisted of 61 individuals with malignancy-associated hypercalcemia, Graves' thyrotoxicosis or primary hyperparathyroidism. Both S-PICP and S-BGP reflected higher bone turnover in postmenopausal than premenopausal women. All patient groups had significantly higher S-ICTP and U-PYD than the controls. Increased S-PICP was seen in malignancy-associated hypercalcemia and Graves' thyrotoxicosis, but not in primary hyperparathyroidism, while higher S-BGP was seen in Graves' thyrotoxicosis and primary hyperparathyroidism, but not in malignancy-associated hypercalcemia. Discrepancy between S-PICP and S-BGP in malignancy-associated hypercalcemia and primary hyperparathyroidism was noted. S-ICTP and U-PYD had higher sensitivity and specificity in discriminating patients from controls. We conclude that S-ICTP is superior to U-PYD as an index of bone resorption in aberrant bone metabolism. S-PICP may also be a useful bone turnover marker but discrepancies between it and S-BGP in malignancy-associated hypercalcemia and primary hyperparathyroidism need further investigation.

The pathogenesis of PTH-induced bone loss is uncertain. Experimental evidence suggests that PTH induces the production by osteoblasts of the bone-resorbing cytokine, interleukin-6. We measured the circulating levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-1 beta and examined their relationship to biochemical markers of bone turnover in 38 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (7 of whom also were studied after successful parathyroid adenomectomy), 6 patients with hypoparathyroidism, and 12 subjects with normal parathyroid function. The patients with untreated primary hyperparathyroidism had mean serum levels of interleukin-6 that were 16-fold higher than control values (mean +/- SEM; primary hyperparathyroidism 18.6 +/- 2.1 pg/mL, controls 1.1 +/- 0.1; P < 0.001). Circulating levels of interleukin-6 soluble receptor (primary hyperparathyroidism 41.7 +/- 1.2 ng/ mL, controls 25.1 +/- 1.0; P < 0.001), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (primary hyperparathyroidism 11.6 +/- 0.8 pg/mL, controls 2.5 +/- 0.2; P < 0.001) were also elevated. After successful parathyroid adenomectomy, levels of each of these cytokines fell into the normal range. The mean levels of interleukin-6, its soluble receptor, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the subjects with hypoparathyroidism were lower than control values (P < 0.001 for each variable). There was no difference between subjects with primary hyperparathyroidism and controls in the circulating level of interleukin-1 beta. In the subjects with untreated primary hyperparathyroidism, serum levels of interleukin-6 correlated strongly with those of intact PTH (r = 0.47, P = 0.003) and biochemical markers of bone resorption: serum deoxypyridinoline (r = 0.93, P < 0.001), serum type I collagen carboxyterminal telopeptide (r = 0.87, P < 0.001), urinary pyridinoline (r = 0.81, P < 0.001), and urinary deoxypyridinoline (r = 0.63, P = 0.005). Levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha correlated less strongly with the same variables: PTH (r = 0.41, P = 0.01), serum deoxypyridinoline (r = 0.48, P = 0.002), serum type I collagen carboxyterminal telopeptide (r = 0.46, P = 0.004), urinary pyridinoline (r = 0.61, P = 0.008), and urinary deoxypyridinoline (r = 0.61, P = 0.007). Levels of interleukin-6 also correlated with those of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (r = 0.44, P = 0.005). Multiple regression analysis indicated that interleukin-6, but not tumor necrosis factor-alpha, was independently predictive of bone resorption. We conclude that serum levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha are increased in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and are normalized by successful surgical treatment. The finding that these cytokines correlate with biochemical markers of bone resorption suggests that they play a role in the pathogenesis of bone loss in primary hyperparathyroidism.

The aims of this study were to determine 1) whether primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with accelerated bone loss in postmenopausal women, 2) whether bone mineral density (BMD) and bone turnover change to a similar extent with surgery and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in these patients, and 3) whether biochemical markers of bone turnover measured at baseline can be used to predict the change in BMD in these patients after different therapies. We studied 33 postmenopausal women with PHPT; their ages at the time of study ranged from 48-80 yr (mean +/- SD, 63 +/- 10). Total body (TB), lumbar spine (LS), and femoral neck (FN) BMD and biochemical markers of bone turnover were measured at baseline and 10-30 months (19 +/- 5) after parathyroid surgery, HRT, or no treatment. BMD was measured in 33 age-matched healthy controls at baseline and at a mean of 24 months. Baseline biochemical markers of bone turnover were measured in controls. In PHPT at baseline, the mean z-score of BMD was -1.25 at TB (95% confidence interval, -1.64 to -0.86), -0.95 at LS (-1.37 to -0.53), and -1.30 at FN (-1.65 to -0.95), whereas the mean z score was 0.45 for serum carboxy-terminal propeptide of human type I procollagen (0.02-0.89), 1.05 for bone alkaline phosphatase (0.38-1.71), 2.38 for 24-h urinary excretion of cross-linked N-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (NTx; 1.63-3.13), and 2.36 for 24-h urinary excretion of galactosyl hydroxylysine (1.97-2.74). After surgery and HRT, BMD increased and bone turnover decreased during the follow-up. In the untreated group, BMD decreased at TB and FN, and levels of bone alkaline phosphatase, NTx/creatinine, and galactosyl hydroxylysine/creatinine increased. When the rate of change in BMD (percentage per yr) was compared with that in the control group, bone gain was significant at all three skeletal sites after surgery and HRT, and bone loss was significant at TB and FN, but not at LS, in the untreated group. There was a weak, but significant, correlation between baseline urinary NTx and the change in femoral neck BMD in the untreated group (r = -0.36; P = 0.05). We conclude that untreated postmenopausal women with PHPT have low BMD resulting from accelerated bone loss at the TB and FN. Surgery and HRT both restore BMD and bone turnover toward normal in postmenopausal women with PHPT. A single measurement of bone turnover is insufficient to predict BMD changes in individual patients with PHPT.
