Vitamin D receptor genotypes are related to bone size and bone density in men.

European journal of clinical investigation - 1 Sept 1996

Abstract excerpt

Three restriction fragment length polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor gene have been associated with a low bone density in twin and female population studies, but no studies have been conducted exclusively in men. We studied 146 normal men aged 20-83 years. Bone density was measured in the spine, hip, whole body and forearm, and the Bsm polymorphism for the vitamin D receptor was detected by the polymerase...
