Vitamin D receptor gene start codon polymorphism (FokI) and bone mineral density in healthy male subjects.

Clinical endocrinology - 1 Jul 2000

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The genetic factors determining peak bone mineral density (BMD) in men are not well characterized. Recent studies have investigated the relationship between the start codon polymorphism (SCP) of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and BMD in different populations. We have now examined the relationship between SCP of the VDR gene and BMD in a group of healthy Caucasian men from the north-east of England....
