Diagnosis and follow-up of bone metastasis (BMet) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients usually rely on symptoms and image studies. A serum marker of bone resorption may improve the quality of treatment in such patients. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRACP5b) is a specific marker for osteoclasts and we proposed it can be used as a marker of BMet in NSCLC patients.In November 2002...
The spread of cancer to bone is considered a terminal event. Two main types of bone metastasis can manifest, i.e. osteoblastic and osteolytic. Irrespective of metastatic type, uncoupled bone remodeling is always present and perpetuates a vicious cycle of excess bone resorption and destruction. Biochemical markers of bone metabolism are potentially useful to diagnose metastatic bone disease and to...
