Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms and peak bone mass in southern Chinese women.

Bone - 1 Apr 1998

Kung A W, Yeung S S, Lau K S

Abstract excerpt

Controversial results were reported on the association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphisms and bone mineral density (BMD). We studied allelic frequencies of the BsmI, ApaI, and TaqI restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in 144 normal healthy southern Chinese premenopausal women aged between 30 and 40 years, and correlated their peak bone mass with the VDR genotypes. In comparison to Western...
