Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is a highly heritable trait. Among the genes associated with bone mineral density (BMD), the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 gene (LRP5) has been consistently identified in Caucasians. However LRP5 contribution to osteoporosis in populations of other ethnicities remains poorly known. METHODS: To determine whether LRP5 polymorphisms Ala1330Val and Val667Met are...
