Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Possible contribution of vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) gene for determination of BMD was tested by characterizing 13 SNPs in 384 adult Japanese women. When the effect of a specific single SNP was tested, five SNPs (-39C>T, IVS1+827C>T, IVS1+1916C>T, IVS1-1154A>G, and IVS11+1097G>C)...
