How can you use “vdr” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Since the Bsm I polymorphism is located in intron 7, the Apa I polymorphism in intron 8, and the Taq I polymorphism in exon 9 within the 3'-untranslated region of the VDR gene, they are less likely to have any biological consequences in causing the disease and affecting glucose metabolism.
Subsequently, the VDR gene polymorphisms were found to account for 75% of the total genetic effect on BMD in healthy people [ 8].
HOMA, Homeostasis Model Assessment; VDR, vitamin D receptor; BMD, bone mineral density; PCR, polymerase chain reaction.
To explore the underlying molecular basis of the Fok I polymorphism at the VDR gene locus, as well as the association between vitamin D level and insulin sensitivity, also warrants further study.
Our understanding of the relationship between BMD and VDR gene polymorphism is based on a twin study of serum osteocalcin level [ 6].
