Variation in the PTH2R gene is associated with age-related degenerative changes in the lumbar spine.

Journal of bone and mineral metabolism - 1 Jan 2015

Abstract excerpt

In the elderly, degenerative changes in the lumbar spine are common, contributing to falsely elevated bone mineral density (BMD) values. The parathyroid hormone (PTH) system plays an important role in the regulation of bone turnover and we explore the hypothesis that polymorphisms (SNPs) within g...
