PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The integration of data from multiple genomic assays from humans and non-human model organisms is an effective approach to identify genes involved in skeletal fragility and fracture risk due to osteoporosis and other conditions. This review summarizes genome-wide genetic variation and gene expression data resources relevant to the discovery of genes contributing to skeletal fragility and fracture risk.

RECENT FINDINGS: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of osteoporosis-related traits are summarized, in addition to gene expression in bone tissues in humans and non-human organisms, with a focus on rodent models related to skeletal fragility and fracture risk. Gene discovery approaches using these genomic data resources are described. We also describe the Musculoskeletal Knowledge Portal (MSKKP) that integrates much of the available genomic data relevant to fracture risk. The available genomic resources provide a wealth of knowledge and can be analyzed to identify genes related to fracture risk. Genomic resources that would fill particular scientific gaps are discussed.
