Do dietary calcium and age explain the controversy surrounding the relationship between bone mineral density and vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms?

Journal of bone and mineral research : the official journal of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research - 1 Mar 1998

Abstract excerpt

Whether vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms are associated with osteoporosis is highly controversial. The relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and bone mineral density (BMD) might, however, be modified by age-related and/or environmental factors. We studied the potential association between BMD and VDR genotypes in females from prepuberty to premenopause and prospectively investigated the...
