BACKGROUND: Bone turnover markers (BTM) reflect the status of bone remodeling processes responsible for bone mineral density. The existing body of evidence that osseous tissue can interact with many other body tissues and organs suggests that the cross-talks can lead to different relationships. The biological traits associated with BTMs have not been thoroughly studied in the elderly despite bone turnover being known to increase with age.
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the C-terminal crosslinking telopeptides of type I collagen (CTXI) and the serum levels of total (TAP) and bone-specific (BAP) alkaline phosphatase are associated with the biological traits in nursing home women aged 80-92 years without inflammation and, if so, to indicate the best predictors of these BTM's blood concentrations.
METHODS: A group of 64 female volunteers aged 80 years and older, the residents of nursing homes, were screened for the study. Fifty two women were ineligible as they met the exclusion criteria. As a result, the study group consisted of 12 participants (85.1 ± 3.9 years; 58.1 ± 8.7 kg; 1.52 ± 0.06 m), all having blood C-reactive protein (CRP) levels below 3 mg/l. Also assessed were the participants' morphology, glucose and insulin levels, lipid profiles, CTXI, TAP, and BAP. Other measured parameters included body composition, resting heart rate and arterial blood pressure, isometric knee extension peak torque (IKEPT), and walking capacity (6-min walk test). The statistical analysis was performed using Pearson's correlation coefficients, the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure, and a stepwise multiple regression analysis with backward elimination.
RESULTS: Inverse correlations were found between CTX-I and hemoglobin concentration (HGB) (r = -0.680; p = .015), red blood cells count (RBC) (r = -0.664; p = .019), fat-free mass (r = -0.633; p = .027), body weight (r = -0.589; p = .044), and total cholesterol (r = -0.581; p = .048). The multiple regression analysis of CTX-I showed that body weight was the only independent variable that was statistically significant (r2 = 0.346; p < .05; SEE = 0.347 ng/ml). BAP was positively correlated with double product (DP) (r = 0.742; p = .006), RBC (r = 0.650; p = .022), HGB (r = 0.637; p = .026), mean arterial pressure (MAP) (r = 0.622; p = .031), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (r = 0.612; p = .034), body height (r = 0.603; p = .038), IKEPT (r = 0.565; p = .056), and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (r = 0.538; p = .071). BAP, a dependent variable, was the most closely correlated with DP (r2 = 0.550; p < .01; SEE = 9.161 U/l). TAP was also significantly associated with DP (r = 0.775; p = .003), with the association being stronger than between BAP and DP (r2 = 0.600; p < .01; SEE = 1000.5 beats/min*mm Hg).
CONCLUSIONS: In relatively healthy the oldest-old nursing home women without inflammation, total body weight was the best predictor of bone resorption shown by the CTX-I concentration, whereas the rate pressure product (DP) turned out to best predict osteoblastic activity determinable from serum alkaline phosphatase activity. The results of the study suggest that the activity of serum TAP and BAP can be enhanced by different mechanisms.
