Polymorphism in the vitamin D receptor gene and bone mass in African-American and white mothers and children: a preliminary report.

Annals of the rheumatic diseases - 1 Aug 2000

Nelson D A, Vande Vord P J, Wooley P H

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the contribution of polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene to ethnic variations in bone mass in mother and children from different ethnic origins. METHODS: VDR genotypes and bone mass in 43 African-American and white women, mean age 38.2 years, and 41 of their children were studied. All children had a whole body bone mass measurement at age 9, and 39 had follow up measurements...
