title: Hormones and genes of importance in bone physiology and their influence on bone mineralization and growth in Turner syndrome.
abstract: This mini review summarizes papers presented in a Joint Symposium between the Bone, Growth Plate and Turner Syndrome Working Groups of the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) that was held on September 9, 2009, in New York.The program had been composed to give an update on hormones and genes of importance in bone physiology and their influence on bone mineralization and growth in Turner syndrome.
