Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 polymorphisms are associated with bone mineral density in Greek postmenopausal women: an interaction with calcium intake.

Abstract excerpt

The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) has been shown to play a significant role in bone biology. This study aimed to assess the association of four common polymorphisms of the LRP5 gene with bone mineral density (BMD) and possible genexcalcium intake interactions in Greek postmenopausal women. For this observational cross-sectional association study, healthy postmenopausal women (N=578)...
