Abstract excerpt
Osteoporosis (OP) is a complex disease in which several immune-related genes have been identified as contributing to susceptibility and disease progression. Despite efforts to achieve functional validation, many of these genes, such as interferon-gamma (IFNG), remain the subject of unresolved mechanisms. The present study aimed to examine whether the IFNG -1616 (G>A, rs2069705) polymorphism was associated with...
