Abstract excerpt
AIM: To study polymorphism of genes involved in mechanisms regulating metabolism of bone tissue: alkaline (ALPL) and acid (ACP1) phosphatases, vitamin D-binding protein (GC); to ascertain associations of their genotypes and alleles with osteoporosis (OP) and mineral density of spinal and femoral bone tissue (BTMD). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Relevant genetic examination was made in 70 females with OP diagnosed by the...
