Abstract excerpt
Strain-dependent differences in bone adaptive responses to loading among inbred mouse strains suggest that genetic background contributes significantly to adaptation to exercise. To explore the genetic regulation of response to loading, we performed a genome-wide search for linkage in a cross between two strains, a good responder, C57BL6/J (B6), and a poor responder, C3H/HeJ (C3H). Using a four-point bending...
