Background: We aimed to establish age- and gender-specific reference ranges for concentrations of the bone markers osteocalcin (OC), procollagen type 1 N-propeptides (PINP) and carboxy-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type 1 collagen (CTX-I) as well as for the calciotropic hormones 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in healthy infants, children and adolescents. In addition, the effect of age, gender, puberty and body mass index (BMI) on bone markers was investigated. Methods: 2416 healthy subjects (5714 blood withdrawals), aged 3 months to 17 years, were included to estimate the age- and gender-dependence of reference ranges. Subsequently, measured values of the biomarkers were transformed to standard deviation scores (SDS) and their associations with age, gender and puberty were analyzed. Bone marker-SDS values of the reference cohort were compared with an obese cohort (n = 317 and 489 blood withdrawals) to analyze the effect of BMI. Results: OC, PINP and CTX-I showed a distinct age- and gender-dependence with peak levels at 10 to 11 years (girls, Tanner 3) and 13 years (boys, Tanner 3-4). Children with obesity had significantly lower SDS levels for OC (-0.44), PINP (-0.27), CTX-I (-0.33), 25(OH)D (-0.43) and higher SDS levels for PTH (+0.44) than the reference cohort. Conclusions: OC, PINP and CTX-I vary with age, gender and pubertal stage. The body weight status has to be considered in the interpretation of pediatric OC, PINP, CTX-I, 25(OH)D and PTH levels. Consequences of childhood obesity on bone health should be carefully investigated in long-term studies.
