VNTR length was determined by PCR amplification of genomic DNA extracted from white blood cells and its association with bone mineral density of the lumbar spine and hip, and quantitative ultrasound measurements of the calcaneus (the heel bone) was assessed. As with other PCR-based genotyping techniques, VNTR analysis uses small quantities of crude bacterial lysates; it is less labor-intensive than RFLP-IS6110 typing, and automation is relatively straightforward (22). The association between the frequency of the 252 bp allele in the VNTR region of the PTHrP gene was studied as a function of Bone Mineral Density (BMD) in at least one of the skeletal sites: hip or spine. |
