Abstract excerpt
We examined whether a -34T --> C polymorphism of the gene for cytochrome P450, family 17, subfamily A, polypeptide 1 (CYP17A1), a -493G --> T polymorphism of the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein gene (MTP), and a CGG repeat polymorphism of the very low density lipoprotein receptor gene (VLDLR) were associated with bone mineral density (BMD) in community-dwelling Japanese women and men. The -34T --> C...
