Objectives: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is widely known to have a detrimental effect on bone health and is associated with increased fracture risk. Recently, the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway and its inhibitors sclerostin and dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) were found to be involved in the control of bone mass. The present study aimed to measure serum sclerostin and Dkk-1 protein levels in children and adolescents with type-1 DM and compare with other bone turnover markers and bone mineral density (BMD). Methods: This study was performed on 40 children and adolescents with type-I DM and 40 healthy children and adolescents. Anthropometric measurements and pubertal examination were done. In addition to laboratory analysis, dickkopf-1, sclerostin, cross-linked N-Telopeptides of type I collagen (NTx), bone alkaline phosphatase (bALP), and osteocalcin levels were studied. BMD of the participants was measured by calcaneus ultrasonography. Results: Dickkopf-1 levels of the children and adolescents with type-1 DM were significantly higher, vitamin D, NTx, osteocalcin, and phosphorus levels were significantly lower than those of the controls (p<0.001). Fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, and insulin were significantly higher in the type 1 DM group (p<0.01). Conclusions: Both bone remodeling and its compensatory mechanism bone loss are lower in children and adolescents with type-1 DM than in the controls. Also, higher levels of Dkk-1 play a role in decreased bone turnover in these patients. Since Dkk-1 and sclerostin seem to take a role in treating metabolic bone diseases in the future, we believe that our findings are significant in this respective.
