Understanding health disparities affecting people of West Central African descent in the United States: An evolutionary perspective

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 963-978, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Human populations adapting to diverse aspects of their environment such as climate and pathogens leave signatures of genetic variation. This principle may apply to people of West Central African descent in the United States, who are at increased risk of certain chronic conditions and diseases compared to their European counterparts.

LRP6 High Bone Mass Characterized in Two Generations Harboring a Unique Mutation of Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor‐Related Protein 6

open access: yesJBMR Plus, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Osteoblast Wnt/β‐catenin signaling conditions skeletal development and health. Bone formation is stimulated when on the osteoblast surface a Wnt binds to low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 5 (LRP5) or 6 (LRP6), in turn coupled to a frizzled receptor. Sclerostin and dickkopf1 inhibit osteogenesis if either links selectively to the
