  • Title: Serum bone Gla protein variations during estrogen and calcium prophylaxis of postmenopausal women.
    Author: Pødenphant J, Christiansen C, Catherwood BD, Deftos LJ.
    Journal: Calcif Tissue Int; 1984 Sep; 36(5):536-40. PubMed ID: 6441624.
    Abstract:
    We have evaluated serum bone Gla protein (BGP) changes in a double-blind study of early postmenopausal women during treatment with estrogen and calcium. To substantiate the changes in bone turnover, serum alkaline phosphatase, 24-hour urinary calcium, and bone mineral content (BMC) have also been measured. Our results indicate that serum BGP is a valuable measurement of bone metabolism.
