Association of CDX1 binding site of periostin gene with bone mineral density and vertebral fracture risk

SUMMARY: Periostin (POSTN) as a regulator of osteoblast differentiation and bone formation may affect susceptibility to osteoporosis. This study suggests POSTN as a candidate gene for bone mineral density (BMD) variation and vertebral fracture risk, which could better our understanding about the gen...
