ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to investigate the relationships between serum periostin (POSTN) and both prevalence and incidence/progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in women. METHODS: We investigated 594 women (62.7 ± 11.2 yr) from the OFELY cohort. Knee radiographs were scored according to the Kellgren & Lawrence (KL) grading system at baseline and 4 years later. Spine, hip and hand OA were assessed at baseline. Prevalent knee OA was defined by a KL score higher or equal in 2. Progression of KL was defined as an increase of the KL score ≥1 during the 4 years follow-up. Serum POSTN was measured at baseline by ELISA. RESULTS: By non-parametric tests, POSTN was significantly lower in 83 women with a KL score ≥2 at baseline, compared to those with a KL score <2 (n = 511; 1101 ± 300 vs 1181 ± 294 ng/ml, P = 0.002) after adjustment for age, body mass index (BMI), treatments and diseases, prevalent hand OA and prevalent lumbar spine OA. By logistic regression analyses, the odds-ratio of knee OA incidence/progression was significantly reduced by 21% (P = 0.043) for each quartile increase in serum POSTN at baseline, after adjustment for age, BMI, prevalent knee OA, prevalent hand OA and prevalent lumbar spine OA. CONCLUSIONS: We show for the first time that serum POSTN is associated with prevalence and the risk of development/progression of knee OA in women.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Periostin (POSTN) is a secreted γ-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein expressed mainly in the periosteum in adult individuals. POSNT deficient mice develop periodontis and osteoporosis with decreased bone strength. The relationship between serum POSTN and bone metabolism and fracture risk in postmenopausal women is unknown. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Serum POSTN was measured in 607 postmenopausal women (mean age 66.6 ± 8.4 y) from the Os des Femmes de Lyon cohort at the ninth annual follow-up visit (baseline visit of the current analysis). Nonvertebral and clinical vertebral incident fragility fractures were reported annually during 7 years. Areal bone mineral density (BMD; measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) of the hip and bone markers (intact N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen, osteocalcin, and serum type I collagen C-telopeptide) were also measured. RESULTS: At baseline, serum POSTN did not correlate with age, bone markers, and BMD. After a median of 7 years of follow-up, 75 women sustained an incident clinical vertebral or nonvertebral fragility fracture. The proportion of women who had an incident fracture was significantly higher in women with levels of POSTN in the highest quartile than that of women in the three other quartiles (19.5% vs 10.1%, P = .018) after adjustment for age and prevalent fracture. The highest quartile of POSTN was associated with an increased risk of incident fracture with a relative risk (95% confidence interval) of 1.88 (1.1-3.2) after adjustment for age, prevalent fracture, and hip BMD T-score. Patients with both low hip BMD (T-score < -2.5) and high levels of POSTN (fourth quartile) had a relative risk of fracture of 7.1 (95% confidence interval 2.4-21.8) after adjustment for age. CONCLUSION: High serum POSTN levels are independently associated with increased fracture risk in postmenopausal women. These data suggest that serum POSTN could be useful to improve fracture risk assessment.

ABSTRACT

UNLABELLED: The aim of the study was to investigate prospectively whether the levels of urinary pentosidine could predict fractures in postmenopausal women from the OFELY cohort. The results of the study suggest that urine pentosidine concentration is not an independent risk factor for fractures in postmenopausal women from a French cohort. INTRODUCTION: Pentosidine has been described as an independent risk factor for hip and vertebral fracture in postmenopausal Japanese women. We investigated the prediction of urinary pentosidine on all fragility fracture risk in healthy untreated postmenopausal women from the OFELY cohort. METHODS: Urinary pentosidine was assessed at baseline in 396 healthy untreated postmenopausal women aged 63.3 +/- 8.4 years from the OFELY cohort using high-performance liquid chromatography method. Incident clinical fractures were recorded during annual follow-up and confirmed by radiographs, and vertebral fractures were assessed on radiographs performed every 4 years. Multivariate Cox's regression analysis was used to calculate the risk of urinary pentosidine levels after adjustment for age, prevalent fractures, and total hip bone mineral density (BMD). RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 10 years, 88 of the 396 postmenopausal women have undergone incident vertebral (n = 28) and peripheral (n = 60) fractures. Fracture risk was higher in postmenopausal women with pentosidine in the highest quartile (p = 0.02), but it did not remain significant after adjustment for age, BMD, and prevalent fracture. CONCLUSIONS: Urine pentosidine concentration is not an independent risk factor of osteoporotic fracture in healthy postmenopausal women from the OFELY cohort.

ABSTRACT

A rapid high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed including an internal standard for the measurement of mature and senescent crosslinks concentration in non-demineralized bone hydrolysates. To avoid the demineralization which is a tedious step, we developed a method based on the use of a solid-phase extraction procedure to clean-up the samples. It resulted in sensitive and accurate measurements: the detection limits as low as 0.2 pmol for the pyridimium crosslinks and 0.02 pmol for the pentosidine. The inter- and intra-assay coefficients of variation were as low as 5% and 2%, respectively, for all crosslinks.
