Abstract excerpt

Among multiple factors influencing osteoporosis, genetic variations involved in bone-mineral metabolism can affect risks predisposing to the disease onset. Here, we studied single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) gene for possible association with bone mineral density (BMD) among 384 adult Japanese women and observed significant correlation between adjusted BMD and three SNPs in...
