This review summarizes comprehensively the most important and representative molecular
genetics studies of gene identification for osteoporosis published up to the end of December …

Purpose Runx2 and osteocalcin have pivotal roles in bone homeostasis. Polymorphism of
these two genes could alter the function of osteoblasts and consequently bone mineral …

The relationship between daily boron intake and osteocalcin-mediated osteoporosis was
studied in boron-exposed postmenopausal women. It is known that boron and osteocalcin …

In this study, we have investigated the association between osteoporosis and osteocalcin
(BGLAP)− 298 C> T, estrogen receptor 1 (ER1) 397 T> C, collagen type1 alpha 1 (Col1A1) …

Background: The aims of this study were:(1) to evaluate the association of serum osteocalcin
with bone mineral density (BMD) and markers of bone metabolism in postmenopausal and …

We evaluated the relationship between a common polymorphism rs1800247 in osteocalcin
gene and serum osteocalcin levels, bone mineral density and fracture in Chinese. This was …

Osteoporosis is a major health problem affecting more than 75 million people throughout
Europe, the United States, and Japan. Epidemiologic studies have determined that both …

Objective This study aimed to analyze the correlation between bone mineral density (BMD)
and bone resorption markers in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis fractures and …

Excessive fluoride intake has been shown to affect dentin and cementum mineralization
throughout life. Some studies indicated that a HindIII polymorphism, of osteocalcin (OC) …

Objective: To investigate the relationship of osteocalcin and matrix Gla protein (MGP) gene
polymorphisms to serum osteocalcin levels, and bone mineral density (BMD) in …
