Abstract excerpt
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ESR1/ESR2 genes play a role in osteoporosis (OP). Our objective was to determine associations of polymorphisms in ESR genes with OP and fracture, SNP-SNP interactions, and involvement of comorbidities. We analyzed 170 Mexican osteoporotic women (FNOP), 173 with hip fracture (HFx), and 210 controls. The SNPs, ESR1 rs2234693CC, rs851982CC and rs1999805AA, were...
