Sirtuin gene polymorphisms are associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in patients in Mugla province.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an irreversible progressive chronic inflammatory disease that causes shortness of breath in consequence of a decrease in pulmonary functions. The pulmonary inflammatory pathogenesis is multifactorial. We have too little up-to-date information about the relation between COPD and genetics. In our study, the relation with the SIRT1 gene's mononucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) rs7895833, rs7069102 and rs2273773 was analyzed through various laboratory data. MATERIAL AND METHODS:One hundred COPD patients from the archive records of the Chest Diseases Department of Mu?la Sitki Kocman University Medical Faculty were included in the study. A control group was constituted from 100 healthy individuals who live in the same geographical region. The SIRT1 genotypes for these patients were determined using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and confronting two-pair primers (CTPP) methods. The SIRT1 gene polymorphisms rs7895833, rs7069102 and rs2273773 were analyzed. GG, AG, AA genotypes and G and A alleles of rs7895833, TT, TC, CC genotypes and T and C alleles of rs2273773, and CC, CG, GG genotypes and C and G alleles of rs7069102 were examined. The data in both groups were compared. CONCLUSIONS:A significant difference between GG, AG and AA genotypes of rs7895833 was found. Especially, the AG genotype was observed more in the group with COPD, with a significant difference. A significant difference between TT, TC and CC genotypes of rs2273773 was found. There was a significant difference between two groups with regards to C and G alleles of rs7069102. A significant difference was not found between the groups with regards to G and A alleles of rs7895833. A difference was not found for both groups between T and C alleles of rs2273773. It shows that these polymorphisms of the SIRT1 gene may be associated with COPD.

Project description:BackgroundSarcopenia, or loss of skeletal muscle mass and decreased contractile strength, contributes to morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The severity of sarcopenia in COPD is variable, and there are limited data to explain phenotype heterogeneity. Others have shown that COPD patients with sarcopenia have several hallmarks of cellular senescence, a potential mechanism of primary (age-related) sarcopenia. We tested if genetic contributors explain the variability in sarcopenic phenotype and accelerated senescence in COPD.MethodsTo identify gene variants [single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)] associated with sarcopenia in COPD, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of fat free mass index (FFMI) in 32 426 non-Hispanic White (NHW) UK Biobank participants with COPD. Several SNPs within the fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene were associated with sarcopenia that were validated in an independent COPDGene cohort (n = 3656). Leucocyte telomere length quantified in the UK Biobank cohort was used as a marker of senescence. Experimental validation was done by genetic depletion of FTO in murine skeletal myotubes exposed to prolonged intermittent hypoxia or chronic hypoxia because hypoxia contributes to sarcopenia in COPD. Molecular biomarkers for senescence were also quantified with FTO depletion in murine myotubes.ResultsMultiple SNPs located in the FTO gene were associated with sarcopenia in addition to novel SNPs both within and in proximity to the gene AC090771.2, which transcribes long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). To replicate our findings, we performed a GWAS of FFMI in NHW subjects from COPDGene. The SNP most significantly associated with FFMI was on chromosome (chr) 16, rs1558902A > T in the FTO gene (β = 0.151, SE = 0.021, P = 1.40 × 10-12 for UK Biobank |β= 0.220, SE = 0.041, P = 9.99 × 10-8 for COPDGene) and chr 18 SNP rs11664369C > T nearest to the AC090771.2 gene (β = 0.129, SE = 0.024, P = 4.64 × 10-8 for UK Biobank |β = 0.203, SE = 0.045, P = 6.38 × 10-6 for COPDGene). Lower handgrip strength, a measure of muscle strength, but not FFMI was associated with reduced telomere length in the UK Biobank. Experimentally, in vitro knockdown of FTO lowered myotube diameter and induced a senescence-associated molecular phenotype, which was worsened by prolonged intermittent hypoxia and chronic hypoxia.ConclusionsGenetic polymorphisms of FTO and AC090771.2 were associated with sarcopenia in COPD in independent cohorts. Knockdown of FTO in murine myotubes caused a molecular phenotype consistent with senescence that was exacerbated by hypoxia, a common condition in COPD. Genetic variation may interact with hypoxia and contribute to variable severity of sarcopenia and skeletal muscle molecular senescence phenotype in COPD.
