Osteoprotegerin and sclerostin in chronic kidney disease prior to dialysis: potential partners in vascular calcifications

Abstract: Our results strongly suggest that bone turnover inhibitors, OPG and sclerostin, are independently associated with CAC with potential additive effects in ND-CKD patients.

“…62 The decrease in GFR and concomitant reduction of sclerostin biodegradation is potentially the main cause of the increased concentrations of this protein in circulation, despite increases in the fraction excreted into urine with the progression of CKD. 63,64 As with subjects having normal renal function, higher concentrations of sclerostin occurs in men, which can be explained by a higher bone mass and indirectly a greater number of osteocytes. 65 The relationship between the concentration of phosphorus and sclerostin (independent from GFR) indicates its potential contribution to the regulation of its secretion by osteocytes.…”

“…High osteoprotegerin values have also been linked to poor glycemic control58, 59 and severity of diabetic nephropathy 60, 61. In patients with chronic renal failure, levels of osteoprotegerin are higher compared with healthy controls,62 are inversely correlated with glomerular filtration rate,63 and correlate with time on maintenance hemodialysis in patients with end‐stage renal disease 64. Third, associations of osteoprotegerin may be attenuated because of the dominance of other factors more relevant to CVD risk in high‐risk patients, including highly prevalent traditional CVD risk factors as well as factors related to quality of clinical care, treatment response, or medication adherence 65.…”

“…Specifically, sclerostin is an endogenous inhibitor of the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway specific to the bone. In the presence of sclerostin, osteoblast precursors are unexposed to a Wnt signal, leading to β-catenin degradation with the cessation of osteoblast differentiation and recruitment [10,11]. …”
