Abstract excerpt

The contribution of genetic factors has been implicated in the determination of bone mass in twin and family studies. Some of the genes involved would regulate bone metabolism, bone formation, and resorption, all processes that determine bone mass. One candidate gene matrix Gla protein gene (MGP), has been implicated in the pathogenesis of bone loss through a repression of bone formation. To analyze the genetic...
