Abstract excerpt
<p>Among multiple factors influencing osteoporosis,genetic variations involved in bone-mineralmetabolism can affect risks predisposing to the diseaseonset. Here, we studied single-nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) in the pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC)gene for possible association with bone mineral density(BMD) among 384 adult Japanese women and observedsignificant correlation between adjusted BMD and threeSNPs in the pr...
