Abstract excerpt

STUDY DESIGN: We conducted a cross-sectional, genotyping study of intervertebral disc disease patients and controls. OBJECTIVES: To determine the contribution of COL9A2 and COL9A3 Tryptophan polymorphisms to intervertebral disc disease development in a genetically heterogeneous, Southern European population compared to previous Finnish studies. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The COL9A2 and COL9A3 genes encode the...
