Abstract excerpt

Wnts comprise a family of secreted growth factors that regulate the development and maintenance of many organs. Recently, Wnt10b was shown to stimulate osteoblastogenesis and bone formation in mice. To evaluate further the role of Wnt10b in bone health in humans, we performed bidirectional sequencing of approximately 8 kb of the WNT10B gene region in 192 individuals (96 African, 96 white) to identify single...
