Common Variants in OPG Confer Risk to Bone Mineral Density Variation and Osteoporosis Fractures

Abstract Although many common variants have been identified for bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis fractures, all the identified risk variants could only explain a small portion of heritability of BMD and osteoporosis fractures. OPG belongs to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily,...
