| Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is one of most important collagen vascular diseases. It has an unknown origin. The aim of this
study was to evaluate circulating levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG), total soluble receptor activator of nuclear factor-Kappa B
ligand (total sRANKL), and RANKL/OPG ratio in patients with RA. Forty-five females with RA, who fulfilled the American
college of rheumatology (ACR) criteria for RA were included in this cross-sectional study. The overall disease activity was
evaluated by the disease activity score based on 28 joint counts (DAS-28). The OPG and sRANKL were measured by the
enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured by ELISA.We used
Pearson’s correlation for our comparisons. There was no statistically significant difference between the levels of CRP, OPG,
sRANKL and RANKL/OPG ratio in terms of DAS-28 grades in our patients. No significant correlation was found between
the serum levels of OPG and DAS-28 (P= 0.525), duration of the disease (P= 0.884), Z-score of the femur (P= 0.546) and Zscore
of the spine (P= 0.492), T-score of the femur (P= 0.137) and T-score of the spine (P= 0.821) in the patient group. No
significant correlations were found between sRANKL levels with DAS-28 (0.919), Z-score of the femur (P= 0.971), Z-score
of the spine (P= 0.832) and T-score of the femur (P = 0170) in the studied groups. Our study showed that there was no
significant correlation between CRP, OPG, sRANKL and RANKL/OPG ratio in DAS-28 grading of our patients. For this
reason they will not be used for evaluating disease activity. However, there was a significant difference between case and
control groups except for sRANKL (pg/mL) |
