We determined whether suppression of sclerostin levels by estrogen treatment was mediated by anti-resorptive effect. Raloxifene, but not bisphosphonates, suppressed circulating sclerostin concentration, suggesting that sclerostin may mediate the action of estrogen on bone metabolism, independently of their anti-resorptive effects.
Introduction
Circulating sclerostin concentrations are higher in postmenopausal than in premenopausal women, and estrogen treatment suppresses sclerostin levels in both men and women. We determined whether anti-resorptives may suppress the circulating sclerostin levels.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective observational study. Eighty postmenopausal women were treated with raloxifene for 19.4 ± 7.7 months (
n
= 16), bisphosphonates for 19.2 ± 6.7 months (
n
= 32), or were untreated (
n
= 32) for 17.1 ± 4.6 months. Plasma sclerostin concentrations were measured before and after treatment.
Results
Plasma sclerostin levels after treatment were significantly lower in the raloxifene than in the control group (55.8 ± 23.4 pmol/l vs. 92.1 ± 50.4 pmol/l,
p
= 0.046), but were similar between the bisphosphonate and control groups. Relative to baseline, raloxifene treatment markedly reduced plasma sclerostin concentration (−40.7 ± 22.8%,

Introduction
Circulating sclerostin concentrations are higher in postmenopausal than in premenopausal women, and estrogen treatment suppresses sclerostin levels in both men and women. We determined whether anti-resorptives may suppress the circulating sclerostin levels.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective observational study. Eighty postmenopausal women were treated with raloxifene for 19.4 ± 7.7 months (
n
= 16), bisphosphonates for 19.2 ± 6.7 months (
n
= 32), or were untreated (
n
= 32) for 17.1 ± 4.6 months. Plasma sclerostin concentrations were measured before and after treatment.
Results
Plasma sclerostin levels after treatment were significantly lower in the raloxifene than in the control group (55.8 ± 23.4 pmol/l vs. 92.1 ± 50.4 pmol/l,
p
= 0.046), but were similar between the bisphosphonate and control groups. Relative to baseline, raloxifene treatment markedly reduced plasma sclerostin concentration (−40.7 ± 22.8%,
p
< 0.001), with respect to both control (−7.5 ± 29.1%) and bisphosphonate (−3.1 ± 35.2%) groups. Changes in bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin levels showed reverse associations with sclerostin concentration changes in the raloxifene (
γ
= −0.505,
p
= 0.017) and control (
γ
= −0.410,
p
= 0.020) groups.
Conclusions
Raloxifene, but not bisphosphonates, significantly suppressed circulating sclerostin concentration, suggesting that sclerostin may mediate the action of estrogen on bone metabolism, independently of their anti-resorptive effects.</abstract><cop>London</cop><pub>Springer-Verlag</pub><pmid>21660558</pmid><doi>10.1007/s00198-011-1675-1</doi><tpages>9</tpages></addata></record> |
