Association between Serum Paraoxonase 1 Activities (PONase/AREase) and L55M Polymorphism in Risk of Female Infertility.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The risk of developing female infertility has been associated with gene polymorphisms that decrease the activity of enzymes involved in systemic Oxidative Stress (OS). In this study, PON1 L55M polymorphism for association with susceptibility to infertility was investigated among Iranian female population. METHODS:Samples from 120 Iranian females [20 endometriosis; 30 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCO); 70 controls] were analyzed and PCR-RFLP assay was used to determine the PON1 rs854560 (L55M) frequencies. The paraoxonase (PONase) and arilesterase (AREase) activities of PON1 enzyme were also assessed in order to investigate the association between serum PON1 activities, female infertility, and PON1 L55M polymorphism. RESULTS:The women with a MM genotype (p=0.021; OR=2.55) showed more possibilities of experiencing infertility than those with a LM genotype (p=0.039; OR=1.91). According to LSD test, endometriosis subjects had significantly lower paraoxonase enzyme activity compared to control group (p=0.0024; CI=95%). No significant difference was found in women with PCOS for both PONase and AREase activity in comparison with control group (p=0.469; CI=95%). Furthermore, PON1 activities were the highest in LL genotype followed by LM and then MM genotype (MM

Project description:Diminished serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities (measures of paraoxonase-1 [PON-1] function) in humans have been linked to heightened systemic oxidative stress and atherosclerosis risk. The clinical prognostic use of measuring distinct PON-1 activities has not been established, and the genetic determinants of PON-1 activities are not known.We established analytically robust high-throughput assays for serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities and measured these in 3668 stable subjects undergoing elective coronary angiography without acute coronary syndrome and were prospectively followed for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE= death, myocardial infarction, stroke) over 3 years. Low serum arylesterase and paraoxonase activities were both associated with increased risk for MACE, with arylesterase activity showing greatest prognostic value (quartile 4 versus quartile 1; hazard ratio 2.63; 95% CI, 1.97-3.50; P<0.01). Arylesterase remained significant after adjusting for traditional risk factors, C-reactive protein, and creatinine clearance (hazard ratio, 2.20; 95% CI, 1.60-3.02; P<0.01), predicted future development of MACE in both primary and secondary prevention populations, and reclassified risk categories incrementally to traditional clinical variables. A genome-wide association study identified distinct single nucleotide polymorphisms within the PON-1 gene that were highly significantly associated with serum paraoxonase (1.18×10(-303)) or arylesterase (4.99×10(-116)) activity but these variants were not associated with either 3-year MACE risk in an angiographic cohort (n=2136) or history of either coronary artery disease or myocardial infarction in the Coronary Artery Disease Genome-Wide Replication and Meta-Analysis consortium (n?80 000 subjects).Diminished serum arylesterase activity, but not the genetic determinants of PON-1 functional measures, provides incremental prognostic value and clinical reclassification of stable subjects at risk of developing MACE.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough observational studies have demonstrated that blood lipids are associated with female infertility, the causality of this association remains unclear. We performed a univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to evaluate the causal relationship between blood lipids and female infertility.MethodsSingle-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with lipid traits in univariate analysis were obtained from the Million Veteran Program (MVP) and Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (GLGC), involving up to 215,551 and 188,577 European individuals, respectively. Blood lipids in multivariate analysis were obtained from the latest genome-wide association study meta-analysis with lipid levels in 73 studies encompassing >300,000 participants. Data on female infertility were obtained from the FinnGen Consortium R6 release, which included 6481 samples and 75,450 controls. Subsequently, MR analysis was performed using inverse variance-weighted (IVW), weighted median, weighted-mode, simple-mode and MR-Egger regression to demonstrate the causal relationship between lipids and female infertility.ResultsAfter controlling confounding factors including body mass index and age at menarche, two-sample MR demonstrated that genetically predicted LDL-C and TC were causally associated with the risk of female infertility (When the genetic instruments come from the MVP database, LDL-C and female infertility, IVW OR: 1.13, 95% CI: 1.001-1.269, p = 0.047; TC and female infertility, IVW OR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.018-1.317, p = 0.025, and when the genetic instruments came from the GLGC database, LDL-C and female infertility, IVW OR: 1.10, 95% CI: 1.008-1.210, p = 0.033; TC and female infertility, IVW OR: 1.14, 95% CI: 1.024-1.258, p = 0.015). However, the IVW estimate showed that HDL-C was not significantly associated with the risk of female infertility (when the genetic instruments came from the MVP database, IVW OR: 1.00, 95% CI: 0.887-1.128, p = 0.999; when the genetic instruments came from the GLGC database, IVW OR: 1.00, 95% CI: 0.896-1.111, p = 0.968). The multivariable MR analysis also provided evidence that LDL-C (OR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.006-1.243, p = 0.042) was significantly associated with the risk of female infertility after considering the correlation of all lipid-related traits.ConclusionThese findings support a causal relationship between increased LDL-cholesterol and increased female infertility risk. Furthermore, the association between lipid-related traits and female infertility risk merits more studies.
