Article Title: Evaluating Biomarkers of Bone Health After an 8-Week Walking Program in Non-Ambulatory Stroke Survivors: A Pilot Study

doi: 10.3390/jcm13216453

Figure Lengend Snippet: Mean and standard deviation of bone biomarkers, walking capacity, and balance.

Article Snippet: The blood sample was analyzed to determine the serum concentration of osteocalcin (OC) and carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (ICTP) using the Osteocalcin Human ELISA Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA; catalog #: KAQ1381) and the Human ICTP ELISA Kit (Aviva Systems Biology, San Diego, CA, USA; catalog #: OKEH00680), respectively.

Article Title: Effect of polyhydroxy-terminated PAMAM dendrimer on dentin matrix metalloproteinases within the hybrid layers

doi: 10.1186/s12903-023-02841-2

Figure Lengend Snippet: The concentration of ICTP released from demineralized dentin in control group and PAMAM-OH group after 2 weeks of incubation in deionized water (DW) and artificial saliva (AS). Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. For the comparison of the four subgroups, columns identified with the different lowercase letters are significantly different ( p < 0.05)

Article Snippet: The measurement was performed with a spectrometer (Beckman Coulter, Inc., Indianapolis, IN, USA) at the absorbance of 450 nm and the amount of ICTP was calculated according to the standard curve constructed using the standards of known concentrations provided in the ICTP ELISA kit (Catalogue no. CSB-E11224 h, Cusabio, Wuhan, China).

Article Title: Comprehensive assessment of tissue and serum parameters of bone metabolism in a series of orthopaedic patients

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0227133

Figure Lengend Snippet: A) Percentage of trabecular mass in bone samples A, B) serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase type 5b (TRAP5b), C) serum sclerostin, and D) serum C-telopeptide of type-1 collagen (ICTP). Depicted are median values, upper and lower quartiles, minimum and maximum values, and outliers. The outliers are represented as circles for mild outliers (values 1.5–3 times above the upper quartile or below the lower quartile) and as asterisks for extreme outliers (data > 3 times above the upper quartile or below the lower quartile).

Article Snippet: Serum levels of PTH, OPG, sRANKL, AP, osteocalcin, TRAP5b, TP1NP, ICTP, and sclerostin were determined using commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits according to the manufacturer’s instructions: PTH 1–84, human; OPG, human Quidel®; sRANKL, human, high sensitive; TRAP5b, MicroVue; Osteocalcin, MicroVue; Sclerostin (TECOmedical AG, Sissach, Switzerland); Alkaline Phosphatase ELISA Kit (Biotrend Chemikalien GmbH, Cologne, Germany); TP1NP (MyBioSource, San Diego, CA, USA); and human C-telopeptide of procollagen (ICTP) (Biozol, Eching, Germany).
