Susceptibility
  • to Alzheimer disease in women
  • to premature coronary artery disease
  • to adult height variation in Caucasians women
  • to osteoporosis
  • to risk of hypospadias
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP
  • SNP2 T/T genotype and the SNP3 T/T genotype were associated with a significant, nearly two-fold increase in the risk of Alzheimer in women
  • SNP linked to adult height variation in Caucasians women
  • increasing coronary artery disease
  • G allele containing variants of ESR2 2681-4A>G may decrease the risk of hypospadias
  • Candidate gene potential target for therapeutic approach protecting the brain from-age related neurodegeneration
