Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL) is recognized as one of the important regulators of osteoclastogenesis. The expression of the tumour necrosis factor superfamily, member 11 (TNFSF11) gene, which encodes for RANKL protein, is increased relative to the expression of osteoprotegrin in cases of senile osteoporosis with hip bone fracture. Our aim was to find polymorphisms in...
