Fig. 3From: Correlation of blood bone turnover biomarkers and Wnt signaling antagonists with AS, DISH, OPLL, and OYLBone turnover factors and Wnt signaling antagonists in patients with OPLL and controls. Serum levels of OSC (**p < 0.01) and SOST (**p < 0.01) were higher but those of DKK-1 (*p < 0.05) were lower in the patients with OPLL than in the controls. There was no significant difference in SFRP-1 and OPG levels between the OPLL patients and controls. (OSC, SFRP-1, OPG: ng/mL; Dkk-1, SOST: pg/mL)Back to article page
