BMP6 and VDR gene polymorphisms are associated with osteonecrosis in a sickle cell anaemia cohort

Summary The occurrence and severity of osteonecrosis in sickle cell anaemia (SCA) vary due to risk factors, including genetic modifiers. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), particularly BMP6, and the vitamin D receptor (VDR) play key roles in cartilage and bone metabolism, making them potential cont...
