Serum proinflammatory cytokines, receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL), osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL/OPG ratio in mild and severe COVID-19

Serum RANKL/OPG ratio was elevated in COVID-19 individuals and is assumed to be a risk factor for BMD reduction and osteoporosis in these patients. Correlations between IL-1β, TNF-α, ALKp, 25-OH vitamin D, OPG, RANKL, and RANKL/OPG ratio offered the potential role of these proinflammatory markers in the mechanism of osteoporosis in COVID-19 patients.

Abstract

Serum RANKL/OPG ratio was elevated in COVID-19 individuals and is assumed to be a risk factor for BMD reduction and osteoporosis in these patients. Correlations between IL-1β, TNF-α, ALKp, 25-OH vitamin D, OPG, RANKL, and RANKL/OPG ratio offered the potential role of these proinflammatory markers in the mechanism of osteoporosis in COVID-19 patients.
