Genetic analysis of osteoblast activity identifies Zbtb40 as a regulator of osteoblast activity and bone mass
4 Jun 2020
Abstract excerpt
Osteoporosis is a genetic disease characterized by progressive reductions in bone mineral density (BMD) leading to an increased risk of fracture. Over the last decade, genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified over 1000 associations for BMD. However, as a phenotype BMD is challenging as bone is a multicellular tissue affected by both local and systemic physiology. Here, we focused on a single...
