Is A163G polymorphism in the osteoprotegerin gene associated with heel velocity of sound in postmenopausal women?

Physiological research - 1 Jan 2008

Zajíčková K, Zemanová A, Hill M, Žofková I

Abstract excerpt

Osteoprotegerin (OPG) plays an important inhibitory role in osteoclastogenesis. Polymorphisms in the OPG gene recently have been associated with various bone phenotypes including fractures. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between three informative OPG polymorphisms and quantitative ultrasound variables of the heel. In a cohort of 165 perimenopausal women polymorphisms in the OPG...
