Abstract excerpt

It is well established that genetic factors contribute to bone turnover and bone density. Evidence exists suggesting that a major part of this genetic influence may be due to polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene. However, it is not clear whether the VDR genotype effect persists in elderly women. In the present study, the relationship between the BsmI, ApaI, and TaqI polymorphisms in the VDR gene,...
