Mitochondria-wide association study of common variants in osteoporosis. Ann Hum Genet, 75(5): 569-74.
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants are involved in the pathogenesis of human complex diseases, especially for age-related disorders, including osteoporosis. However, the role of mtDNA variants in osteoporosis is largely unknown. In this study, we performed a mitochondria-wide association study for osteoporosis in a large sample of 2286 unrelated Caucasian subjects. A total of 445 mtSNPs were genotyped and 72 mtSNPs survived the quality control. We first examined association between mtSNPs and ... [Abstract] [Full-text]

The reduced trabecular bone mass of adult ARKO male mice results from the decreased osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stroma cells. Biochem Biophys Res Commun, 411(3): 477-82.
Male mice with androgen receptor knock-out (ARKO) show significant bone loss at a young age. However, the lasting effect of AR inactivation on bone in aging male mice remains unclear. We designed this study to evaluate the effect of AR on bone quality in aging male mice and to find the possible causes of AR inactivation contributing to the bone loss. The mice were grouped according to their ages and AR status and their trabecular bones were examined by micro-CT analysis at 6, 12, 18, and 30 ... [Abstract] [Full-text]
