A Panel-Based Sequencing Analysis of Patients with Paget's Disease of Bone Suggests Enrichment of Rare Genetic Variation in regulators of NF-κB Signaling and Supports the Importance of the 7q33 Locus.

Abstract excerpt

Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a common bone disorder characterized by focal lesions caused by increased bone turnover. Monogenic forms of PDB and PDB-related phenotypes as well as genome-wide association studies strongly support the involvement of genetic variation in components of the NF-κB signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of PDB. In this study, we performed a panel-based mutation screening of 52 genes....
