Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in estrogen receptor 1 gene with the risk of idiopathic short stature

Estrogen is a hormone in hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis that plays an important role in the regulation of bone maturation and closure of the growth plate. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) gene and susceptibility to idiopathic short stature (ISS) in the Chinese population.
