Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: Expression in Osteoblasts
Abstract It has been proposed that girls with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) tend to have a taller stature and a lower body mass index. Energy homeostasis, that is known to affect bone growth, could contribute to these characteristics. In circulation, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inactivate...
