A Study of the Relationship between the Polymorphism and Mutation of rs682429 and rs3781590 in the LRP5 Gene and Bone Metabolism in Postmenopausal Type 2 Diabetic Women in Xinjiang.

(1) The rs682429 polymorphism site in the LRP5 gene may be involved in bone metabolism in postmenopausal women from Xinjiang. (2) The rs3781590 mutation in the LRP5 gene from these subjects may be involved in lipid metabolism. (3) Among postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus and bone mass abnormality in the Xinjiang Shihezi area, high BMI and TG are protective factors against increased BMD. Duration of menopause is a risk factor for increased BMD.
