Genetic interaction of purinergic P2X7 receptor and ER-α polymorphisms in susceptibility to osteoporosis in Chinese postmenopausal women

Abstract: Osteoporosis (OP) is an increasing public health problem worldwide. Genetic factors are considered to be major contributors to the pathogenesis of OP. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) and estrogen receptor-α (ER-α) genes with OP risk, and the effect of the possible interaction between the two genes on predisposition to OP in Chinese postmenopausal women. A total of 596 subjects, including 350 OP patients and 246 controls, were recruited in this ca… Show more

“…This observation directed us to focus on the P2Y2/P2Y4 signaling cascade as a potential contributor to sex-related physiological differences in renal salt handling. This is particularly relevant to evidence demonstrating that sex hormones regulate extrarenal purinoceptor signaling [31][32][33][34].…”
