Does a non-synonymous coding change in the CYP19A1 gene Arg264Cys ( rs700519 ) affect circulating estradiol , bone structure or fracture?
In a cohort of 1,022 elderly Western Australian women, the presence of Arg264Cys (rs700519) polymorphism was not found to be associated with serum estradiol, bone structure or phenotypes.
Collectively, our data favor the notion that oxLDL stimulates ERK phosphorylation via ROS accumulation, which in turn stimulates vascular endothelial transcriptional factor activator protein-1 and ET-1 expression as well as secretion.
