Genetic regulation of bone mass and susceptibility to osteoporosis.
Osteoporosis is a common disease with a strong genetic component characterized by reduced bone mass and increased risk of fragility fractures. Twin and family studies have shown that the heritability of bone mineral density (BMD) and other determinants of fracture risk-such as ultrasound properties of bone, skeletal geometry, and bone turnover-is high, although heritability of fracture is modes...

متن کاملGenetics of Susceptibility to Infectious Diseases
W e and microbial pathogens are often locked inadynamicbattlemediated by their virulence factors and our defenses. If we do not mount effective immune responses to pathogens, we will not overcome infections. However, if we overreact, host immune cascades may make those infections more severe. Both nonspecific factors, such as age and general health status, as well as specific genetic factors co...
