A genome-wide association study identifies a locus associated with knee extension strength in older people

2023-07-24

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Sarcopenia is a common skeletal muscle disease in older people. Lower limb muscle strength is a good predictive value for sarcopenia; however, little is known about its genetic components. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for knee extension strength in a total of 3,452 Japanese aged 60 years or older from two independent cohorts. We identified a significant asso...
