Variants in RETN gene are associated with steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head risk among Han Chinese people

Abstract Background Gene polymorphism has an important influence on RETN gene expression level, and the increased level of resistin encoded in RETN will lead to metabolic disorder, especially lipid metabolism. Moreover, steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (steroid-induced ONFH) is clos...
