Common polymorphism in the LRP5 gene may increase the risk of bone fracture and osteoporosis.

ABSTRACT: The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 gene (LRP5) was identified to be linked to the variation in bone mineral density and types of bone diseases. The present study was aimed at examining the association of LRP5 rs3736228 C>T gene with bone fracture and osteoporosis by meta-analysis. A systematic electronic search of literature was conducted to identify all published studies in English or Chinese on the association of the LRP5 gene with bone fracture and osteoporosis risks. All analyses were calculated using the Version 12.0 STATA software. Odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated. An updated meta-analysis was currently performed, including seven independent case-control studies. Results identified that carriers of rs3736228 C>T variant in the LRP5 gene were associated with an increased risk of developing osteoporosis and fractures under 4 genetic models but not under the dominant model (OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 0.97~1.46, and P = 0.103). Ethnicity-subgroup analysis implied that LRP5 rs3736228 C>T mutation was more likely to develop osteoporosis and fractures among Asians and Caucasians in majority of subgroups. These results suggest that there is a modest effect of the LRP5 rs3736228 C>T on the increased susceptibility of bone fracture and osteoporosis.

Project description:The aim of the present study was to screen potential key genes associated with osteoporotic fracture healing. The microarray data from the Gene Expression Omnibus database accession number GSE51686, were downloaded and used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in fracture callus tissue samples obtained from the femora of type I collagen (Col1a1)‑kringle containing transmembrane protein 2 (Krm2) mice and low density lipoprotein receptor‑related protein 5‑/‑ (Lrp5‑/‑) transgenic mice of osteoporosis compared with those in wild‑type (WT) mice. Enrichment analysis was performed to reveal the DEG function. In addition, protein‑protein interactions (PPIs) of DEGs were analyzed using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes database. The coexpression associations between hub genes in the PPI network were investigated, and a coexpression network was constructed. A total of 841 DEGs (335 upregulated and 506 downregulated) were identified in the Col1a1‑Krm2 vs. the WT group, and 50 DEGs (16 upregulated and 34 downregulated) were identified in the Lrp5‑/‑ vs. the WT group. The DEGs in Col1a1‑Krm2 mice were primarily associated with immunity and cell adhesion (GO: 0007155) functions. By contrast, the DEGs in Lrp5‑/‑ mice were significantly associated with muscle system process (GO: 0003012) and regulation of transcription (GO: 0006355). In addition, a series of DEGs demonstrated a higher score in the PPI network, and were observed to be coexpressed in the coexpression network, and included thrombospondin 2 (Thbs2), syndecan 2 (Sdc2), FK506 binding protein 10 (Fkbp10), 2'‑5'-oligoadneylate synthase‑like protein 2 (Oasl2), interferon induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats (Ifit) 1 and Ifit2. Thbs2 and Sdc2 were significantly correlated with extracellular matrix‑receptor interactions. The results suggest that Thbs2, Sdc2, Fkbp10, Oasl2, Ifit1 and Ifit2 may serve important roles during the fracture healing process in osteoporosis. In addition, this is the first study to demonstrate that Sdc2, Fkbp10, Oasl2, Ifit1 and Ifit2 may be associated with osteoporotic fracture healing.

Project description:BACKGROUND: The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 gene (LRP5) was identified to be linked to the variation in BMD in high bone mass pedigrees. Subsequent population-based studies of the association between the LRP5 gene and BMD have yielded conflicting results. The present study was aimed at examining the association between LRP5 gene and BMD by using meta-analysis. METHODS: A systematic electronic search of literature was conducted to identify all published studies in English on the association between LRP5 gene and osteoporosis-related phenotypes, including bone mineral density and fracture. BMD data were summarized from individual studies by LRP5 genotype, and a synthesis of data was performed with random-effects meta-analyses. After excluding studies on animal and review papers, there were 19 studies for the synthesis. Among these studies, 10 studies used the rs3736228 (A1330V) polymorphism and reported BMD values. RESULTS: The 10 eligible studies comprised 16,705 individuals, with the majority being women (n = 8444), aged between 18 - 81 years. The overall distribution of genotype frequencies was: AA, 68%, AV and VV, 32%. However, the genotype frequency varied significantly within as well as between ethnic populations. On random-effects meta-analysis, lumbar spine BMD among individuals with the AA genotype was on average 0.018 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.012 to 0.023) g/cm2 higher than those with either AV or VV genotype. Similarly, femoral neck BMD among carriers of the AA genotype was 0.011 (95%CI: 0.004 to 0.017) g/cm2 higher than those without the genotype. While there was no significant heterogeneity in the association between the A1330V polymorphism and lumbar spine BMD (p = 0.55), the association was heterogeneous for femoral neck BMD (p = 0.05). The probability that the difference is greater than one standard deviation was 0.34 for femoral neck BMD and 0.54 for lumbar spine BMD. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that there is a modest effect of the A1330V polymorphism on BMD in the general population, and that the modest association may limit its clinical use.
