TNFRSF11B gene variants and bone mineral density in postmenopausal women in Malta.

Maturitas - 20 Mar 2006

Vidal C, Brincat M, Xuereb Anastasi A

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: A number of polymorphisms in various genes have been identified and associated with bone mineral density (BMD) and with an increased risk of osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE: In this study, three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the TNFRSF11B gene were studied for association with an increased risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal Maltese women (n=126). METHODOLOGY: Analysis was performed by PCR...
