Popis: SOST encodes sclerostin, an inhibitor of bone formation that antagonizes canonical Wnt signaling. Variations of SOST expression have an impact on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone strength. We hypothesized that genetic and epigenetic DNA modifications have an impact on SOST gene expression. By analyzing 43 bone samples from women, we found that rs851054 (G/A) is associated with SOST mRNA expression, donors with one or two G allele(s) displaying higher SOST expression (p
