Objectives SLE is a chronic autoimmune disease, which can affect the level of bone metabolism and increase the risk of osteoporosis and fracture. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of SLE on bone turnover markers without the influence of glucocorticoids. Methods A total of 865 female subjects were recruited from Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital and the First Hospital of Jiaxing, including 391 SLE patients without the influence of glucocorticoids and 474 non-SLE people. We detected Bone turnover markers including amino-terminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen (P1NP), C-terminal turnover of β - I collagen (β-CTX), N-terminal midfragment of osteocalcin (NMID) and 25(OH)D, and analyzed the difference in Bone turnover markers between the SLE group and the control group, as well as the influence of age and season on bone metabolism in female SLE patients. Results In the SLE group, the average age was 43.93±13.95 years old. In the control group, the average age was 44.84±11.42 years old. There was no difference between the two groups (t = 1.03, P = 0.30). P1NP, NMID and 25(OH)D in the SLE group were significantly lower than those in the control group (Z = 8.44, p < 0.001; Z = 14.41, p < 0.001; Z = 2.19, p = 0.029), and β-CTX in the SLE group was significantly higher than that in the control group (Z = 2.61, p = 0.009). In addition, the levers of β-CTX, NMID, P1NP and 25(OH)D in older SLE female patients were statistically significantly higher than those in younger (ρ = 0.104, p = 0.041; ρ = 0.223, p < 0.001; ρ = 0.105, p = 0.038; ρ = 0.289, p < 0.001). Moreover, β-CTX reached a high value in summer and PINP reached a low value in winter. Conclusion The bone formation markers of female SLE patients without glucocorticoid were lower than those of normal people and the bone resorption marker was higher than that of normal people. The 25 (OH) D of female SLE patients without glucocorticoid was lower than that of normal people. The risk of osteoporosis and fracture may be higher in elderly women with SLE. The bone resorption level of female SLE patients is high in summer and the bone formation level is low in winter.

Abstract Objectives Optimal bone health is maintained through a remodeling cycle consisting of resorption followed by formation. Procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) and C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (CTX) are biomarkers of bone metabolism that capture changes in bone formation and bone resorption, respectively. This study aimed to identify unique metabolic pathways related to bone turnover markers (BTMs) in healthy young adults. Methods This cross-sectional study included 34 healthy, young adults (19 females, average age 27.8 years). Bone mineral density (BMD) was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Fasting plasma was analyzed using dual column liquid chromatography and ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry for metabolomics. Serum levels of P1NP and CTX were measured with ELISA. Linear regression and pathway enrichment analyses were used to identify metabolic pathways related to the BTMs. Results All participants had a normal whole-body BMD T-score. Metabolites significantly associated with P1NP (at P &lt; 0.05) were significantly enriched in pathways linked to the TCA cycle, pyruvate metabolism, and metabolism of B-vitamins important for energy production (e.g., niacin, thiamin). Other nutrition-related metabolic pathways associated with P1NP were amino acid (proline, arginine, glutamate) and vitamin C metabolism, which are important for collagen formation. Metabolites were associated with CTX levels (at P &lt; 0.05), which were enriched within lipid and fatty acid beta-oxidation metabolic pathways, as well as fat soluble micronutrients pathways including, vitamin D metabolism, vitamin E metabolism, and bile acid biosynthesis. Conclusions High-resolution metabolomics identified several distinct plasma metabolic pathways, including energy-yielding metabolic pathways and pathways related to fatty acid, amino acid, and micronutrient metabolism that were associated with markers of bone formation and bone resorption. Characterizing these metabolism-related pathways associated with BTMs in healthy adults is an important step towards understanding the metabolic perturbations that lead to low bone mass in older and clinical populations.

The effect of calcium deprivation on the various calcium fluxes was studied in growing rats either sham-operated (SHAM), thyroparathyroidectomized (TPTX), or thyroparathyroidectomized and supplemented with parathyroid hormone (PTH) (TPTX + PTH). In SHAM rats a decrease in the net absorption of calcium (Vna) has no influence on calcemia or on bone formation (Vo+), but leads to an increase in bone resorption (Vo-). In TPTX rats a decrease in Vna induces a decrease in calcemia and in Vo+ but still causes an increase in Vo-. The same is true in TPTX + PTH rats although all the variables measured are increased. In TPTX rats, both without and with PTH, a linear correlation exists between calcemia and Vo+ suggesting that calcemia influences bone formation. Furthermore, it appears that PTH is important in regulating bone turnover, but that the adaptation of Vo- to a change in Vna can occur in the absence or in the presence of a constant amount of this hormone. The mechanism of regulating this adaptation of bone resorption is still unknown.
