Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in leptin (LEP), its receptor (LEPR) and β adrenergic receptor (ADRB) genes and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal Korean women.Methods: The LEP c.280G>A, LEPR c.326A>G, c.668A>G, c.1968G>C, c.2096C>T, ADRB2 c.46A>G, c.79C>G, c.718T>C, c....
