Parathormone and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase for the follow-up of bone turnover in hemodialysis patients: Is it so simple?

Abstract: This study shows the lack of correlation between ΔPTH and Δb-ALP over time in patients under chronic hemodialysis.

“…Due to these different backgrounds, it can be expected that there is no clear correlation between biomarkers even if they reflect the same biological process in bone. Indeed, while PTH can be considered a driver of bone turnover, its association with BSAP, an indicator of osteoblastic activity, is generally vague in patients on dialysis when longitudinally assessed [ 9 ]. This may in part be explained by CKD-associated PTH-resistance, which can consist of either posttranslational modification of PTH rendering it biologically inactive, or end-organ resistance to its actions [ 10 ].…”

“…In the current analysis, we studied the evolution and, more specifically, the concordance between variations of biomarkers over time. If we confirmed that baseline or one-year results of PTH and bone biomarkers are highly correlated in cross-sectional analyses 3 , 9 11 , the correlations are much less relevant if the variations or changes of biomarkers are considered, suggesting that PTH and bone biomarkers give different information 8 . In this analysis, the variable “time” seems particularly important.…”

“…However, the interpretation of these two parameters is not easy, notably because of lack of standardization in the dosages 6 8 . In cross-sectional studies, a good correlation is found between the two biomarkers 3 , 9 11 . However, their performance to predict bone turnover assessed by bone biopsies in transversal studies remains actually disappointing 3 , 12 14 .…”

“…Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is a glycoprotein. It is found on the surface of osteoblasts and is a more specific measure of bone formation as well as bone turnover (Delanaye et al 2013). Li et al showed that ALP activity was almost completely inhibited when connexin Cx43 antisense cDNA was stably transfected into the immortalized human fetal osteoblastic cell line hFOB1.19, despite only a 50% decrease in cell-to-cell communication (Li et al 2006).…”
