For example, a heavily maize\u2010dependent diet could be deficient in one or more essential amino acids necessary to normal human biochemistry and consequently necessary for normal bone protein synthesis. Amino acid analysis of bone tissues, thus, could provide a useful diagnostic tool in paleopathology. To test this potential we have compared the amino acid analyses of bone samples from a prehistoric Southwest Indian child exhibiting porotic hyperostosis with samples taken from (1) two children's skeletons lacking bone lesions but from the same area and time, (2) a modern child who died from accidental causes, and (3) adult human compact bone. Analytical results of the nonpathological prehistoric specimens were virtually identical to that of the modern infant, indicating remarkable preservation of bone protein. The pathological bone sample differed from the three control specimens by having as much as 25% less of those amino acids containing hydroxyl group and acidic side chains. We interpret the amino acid profile for the diseased child as indicating the presence of a greater proportion of helical protein (or less noncollagenous protein) as well as a lowered degree of hydroxylation of proline and lysine. One explanation for our data is that protein biosynthesis is altered in the child exhibiting porotic hyperostosis, and either some proteins important in the early phases of mineralization are not produced in sufficient quantity, or some necessary enzyme cofactors (e.g., dietary ferrous ions) are missing. We conclude that our data are compatible with, but do not prove, the hypothesis that the porotic hyperostosis exhibited by the Southwest Indian child is the result of iron deficiency anemia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330590407","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,2,3]],"date-time":"2006-02-03T20:50:56Z","timestamp":1138999856000},"page":"377-385","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Amino acid analysis of bone from a possible case of prehistoric iron deficiency anemia from the American Southwest"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"59","author":[{"given":"David W.","family":"Von Endt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Donald J.","family":"Ortner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,4,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330470108"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02013724"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajpa.1330440311"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000205441"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"237","DOI":"10.1016\/B978-0-12-119201-3.50014-7","volume-title":"The Biochemistry and Physiology of Bone","author":"Engstrom A","year":"1972"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-2836(74)90393-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_1","first-page":"268","article-title":"Ultrasensitive amino acid analyzer","volume":"70","author":"Hare PE","year":"1971","journal-title":"Carnegie Inst.
