Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:The identification of early-stage osteoarthritis (OA) is crucial for the deceleration of its progression; however, no reliable biomarker is available for this purpose. The current study aimed to determine the role of serum calprotectin in the detection of early-stage knee OA. DESIGN:In a case-control study, serum samples were collected from 84 patients with primary bilateral knee OA and 52 healthy controls. The radiographic grading of knee OA was performed using the Kellgren-Lawrence classification system. Serum concentrations of calprotectin were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS:The mean serum calprotectin level was 2908 ± 2516 ng/mL in OA patients and 901 ± 875 ng/mL in healthy control subjects (P < 0.001). Mean serum calprotectin levels were significantly higher in the lower stages of OA: 3740 ± 2728 ng/mL in OA grade I, 3100 ± 2084 ng/mL in OA grade II, 2246 ± 1418 ng/mL in OA grade III, and 2035 ± 765 ng/mL in OA grade IV (P = 0.047). Serum calprotectin levels were significantly higher in patients with a disease duration <42 months compared with those with a disease duration >42 months (P = 0.043). CONCLUSION:Serum calprotectin level increases significantly in the early stages of OA and shows a reverse association with disease severity. Therefore, it could be suggested as a promising blood-based marker for early-stage knee OA.
