Functional evaluation of the role of LRP4 and NPR3 in the regulation of bone metabolism by regulating respectively bone mass and bone growth. University of Antwerp
Bone metabolism is a complex process which is not only important during the development of the skeleton with the regulation of bone growth but also throughout life to maintain bone mass and bone strength. In our research group, we investigate the genetic cause of several skeletal dysplasias marked by abnormal bone mass or growth. In the past, this already resulted in the identification of several disease causing genes. With this project, we aim ...
