Vitamin D receptor polymorphism, bone mineral density, and osteoporotic vertebral fracture: studies in a UK population.

Bone - 1 Mar 1996

Houston L A, Grant S F, Reid D M, Ralston S H

Abstract excerpt

Bone mineral density is under strong genetic control and polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) have been suggested to account for some of the genetic variation in bone mass. However, the relationship between VDR polymorphisms and bone density is controversial and has not been confirmed by all workers. Since there is little information on the association between VDR genotype and bone mass in the UK, we...
