OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of inflammatory activity and glucocorticoid (GC) treatment on serum parathyroid hormone (s-PTH) and bone metabolism in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Furthermore, in patients with active RA, to examine the PTH secretion and Ca2+ set point before and after treatment with GC.
METHODS: A range of biochemical markers of bone metabolism and calcium homeostasis were measured in 95 patients with definite RA stratified into groups according to disease activity and GC treatment. In a subgroup of 12 patients with active disease, initiating slow-acting-anti-rheumatic-drugs (SAARDs) +/- GC, the PTH secretion and calcium set point were evaluated by use of the Cica clamp technique before and after 1 month of treatment.
RESULTS: S-osteocalcin, s-total alkaline phosphatase (s-TAP) and s-carboxyterminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (s-ICTP) were elevated in all groups. The levels of urine pyridinoline (Pyr) and s-albumin-corrected calcium (s-AlbCorrCa2+) were elevated in patients with active disease and patients treated with GC. S-PTH and s-phosphate were within normal ranges. S-TAP, s-ICTP, Pyr and s-AlbCorrCa2+ correlated positively with indices of disease activity. In the subgroups undergoing the Cica clamp technique, no difference in PTH responsiveness of B-Ca2+ was unveiled.
CONCLUSION: Neither active disease nor GC therapy appears to induce secondary hyperparathyroidism, nor is there an alteration in PTH responsiveness of B-Ca2+ in patients with RA. The increased levels of markers of type I collagen metabolism (s-ICTP, Pyr) and s-AlbCorrCa2+ in patients with active disease and patients treated with GC may be a result of increased degradation in synovium, cartilage and bone due to the inflammatory process.
