Distinct DNA methylation profiles in bone and blood of osteoporotic and healthy postmenopausal women

DNA methylation affects expression of associated genes and may contribute to the missing genetic effects from genome-wide association studies of osteoporosis. To improve insight into the mechanisms of postmenopausal osteoporosis, we combined transcript profiling with DNA methylation analyses in bone...
