A role for the <i>MEGF6</i> gene in predisposition to osteoporosis

2020-01-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Osteoporosis is a common skeletal disorder characterized by deterioration of bone tissue in later life. The set of genetic factors contributing to osteoporosis is not completely specified. High-risk osteoporosis pedigrees were analyzed to identify genes that may confer susceptibility to disease. Candidate predisposition variants were identified initially by whole exome sequencing of affected-rel...
