Objectives: FGF23 is expressed in clusters of osteocytes at the trabecular periphery suggesting that FGF23-expressing osteocytes are confined to specific basic multicellular units (BMUs) at the trabecular surface. Higher numbers of FGF23-expressing osteocytes are found in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with preserved skeletal mineralization indices. We thus combined immunohistochemistry and quantitative backscattered electron imaging (qBEI) to explore the hypothesis tha...

Background: Chronic renal, liver and heart failure in children associate with multiple skeletal complications. Increased fracture incidence often persists after transplantation and might be related to alterations in bone material properties. Moreover, it is not clear whether bisphosphonate therapy (BP) alters bone matrix mineralization in these patients.Methods: In the present study we evaluated bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD) by quantita...
