title: [Modern diagnostics of osteoporosis based on the use of biochemical markers of bone turnover].
abstract: Osteoporosis is a disease with low bone mass and disorganization of the internal microarchitecture of bone tissue. Determination of biochemical markers allows for early diagnosis of changes in bone tissue metabolism. The search for a marker whose biological function could be directly connected with bone metabolism, clearly indicating a connection between its concentration and risk fracture as well as response to treatment, continues. Currently measurement of collagen-derived markers of bone resorption is used in the majority of cases. They are, first of all, telopeptides of collagen type 1 localized on the amino end-N-terminal telopeptide of type 1 collagen (NTX), as well as on the carboxy end-C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX) of collagen molecule. Among markers of bone synthesis, special attention is paid to the procollagen type 1 carboxy-terminal propeptide (POCP) and procollagen type 1 amino-terminal propeptide (P1NP). Simultaneous application of bone synthesis and resorption markers allows for a full imaging of the bone remodeling process and application of biochemical markers in the diagnosis and therapy of osteoporosis.
