Identification of known and novel long non-coding RNAs potentially responsible for the effects of BMD GWAS loci

Osteoporosis, characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD), is the most common complex disease affecting bone and constitutes a major societal health problem. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified over 1100 associations …

Using -omics Data to Inform Genome-wide Association Studies (GWASs) in the Osteoporosis Field

Purpose of review: Osteoporosis constitutes a major societal health problem. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified over 1100 loci influencing bone mineral density (BMD); however, few of the causal genes have been identified. Here, …
