Evidence of altered matrix composition in iliac crest biopsies from patients with idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis.
The goal of this study is to describe idiopathic juvenile osteoporosis (IJO)bone composition. It concluded that IJO bone, similar to post-menopausal osteoporosis (PMO) bone, had elevated collagen maturity relative to its age-matched controls. This emphasizes the importance of the collagen matrix for bone health. IJO bone differed from PMO bone as IJO bone contains more recently formed mineral than age-matched controls.
