Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the antiresorptive-cytokine effects of chondroitin sulfate on non-specific lower back pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: - after 60 days with the assessment of blood parameters: transforming growth factor β1 (TFR β1), interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6, beta-Crosslaps, bone matrix formation indicator P1NP (n-terminal propeptide procollagen type 1), and determination of the level of deoxypyridinoline (DPID) in the urine.
