[Genomic approaches to bone and joint diseases. Future possibility of nutrigenomics].
Recently, the field of study related to new genomic tools in nutritional research, so called "Nutrigenomics" has attracted attention from the perspective of preventing lifestyle-related diseases. This term implies that other portions of the genome play a role in genetic response to nutrients such as the expression level of mRNA (transcriptome) , the protein level (proteome) , or the metabolic level (metabolome) . From this perspective, the author introduces updated information on research and development in this field, including the relationships between nutrients and physiological functions, metabolism-related issues, personalized nutrition and genetic screening for the prevention of osteoporosis.
