Prediction of Bone-Density from Vitamin-D Receptor Alleles
Nigel Alexander Morrison,Jian Cheng Qi,Akifumi Tokita,Paul J. Kelly,Linda Crofts,Tuan V. Nguyen,Philip N. Sambrook,John A. Eisman +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that common allelic variants in the gene encoding the vitamin D receptor can be used to predict differences in bone density, accounting for up to 75% of the total genetic effect on bone density in healthy individuals.

Correction: Prediction of bone density from vitamin D raceptor alleles
Nigel Alexander Morrison,Jian Cheng Qi,Akifumi Tokita,Paul J. Kelly,Linda Crofts,Tuan V. Nguyen,Philip N. Sambrook,John A. Eisman +7 more
TL;DR: On re-analysis of these newly collected and re-genotyped samples, it is found reduced correlation of the VDR genotype with bone density in this larger sample of twin pairs.

Genetics of Osteoporosis and Vitamin D Receptor Alleles
John A. Eisman,Nigel Alexander Morrison,Paul J. Kelly,P. N. Sambrook,G. M. Howard,Jian Cheng Qi,Akifumi Tokita,Linda Crofts,Tuan V. Nguyen,J Birmingham +9 more
TL;DR: This research has focused on the development of peak bone density, which is the major determinant of bone density in women for at least 15 years after the menopause and presumably much later in life for men.
