Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 4 is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the LGR4gene.[5][6] LGR4 is known to have a role in the development of the male reproductive tract, eyelids, hair and bone.
Mutations in this gene have been associated to
osteoporosis (doi:10.1038/nature12124).
