| Research Abstract |
Sequencing analysis of COL1A1 and COL1A2 in 22 OI patients revealed 14 mutations. Each of the 14 mutations was found only in a single family. COL1A1 and COL1A2 mutant alleles are heterogeneous. Glycine to serine substitutions tend to lead to a more severe phenotype. Most of the patients had blue sclerae and dentinogenesis imperfecta. Bisphosphpnate significantly increased BMD in all the patients, though no correlation was found between the mutated gene or mutation type and increment in BMD.
