Is tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b a potent bio-marker for late stage aseptic implant loosening?

Abstract: In the "late" phase of aseptic joint replacement loosening, no increase of TRAP 5b and therefore no increase of osteoclast number and activity was measurable. Thus, in this situation an anti-osteolytic therapy with a bisphosphonate or denosumab would not gain any further benefit.

“…The serum level of TRACP-5b has been defined as a marker of osteoclast activity [17]. Whether TRACP-5b is useful as a surrogate marker of loosening or osteolysis detection remains unknown [18,19]. In the present case, the serum level of TRACP-5b gradually increased with the progression of bone destruction despite oral administration of alendronate for at least 10 years.…”

“…Tartrate-resistant-acid-phosphatase (TRAP) is an osteoclastspecific marker closely linked to bone resorption. In early phases of orthopaedic implant loosening increased TRAP levels are described, while late phases correlate with decreased amounts of TRAP (22).…”

“…Based on this understanding of PPO pathophysiology and the clinical need for earlier diagnosis, previous studies have investigated PPO biomarkers [ 1 , 2 , 7 , 10 , 12 , 18 , 24 , 28 ]. Previously studied serum biomarkers include RANKL, OPG, C-reactive protein, IL-1β, bone alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, prostaglandin E2, matrix metalloproteinase-1, transforming growth factor-β, and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b [ 26 ].…”
