Joint effect of gene-physical activity and the interactions among CRP, TNF-?, and LTA polymorphisms on serum CRP, TNF-? levels, and handgrip strength in community-dwelling elders in Taiwan - TCHS-E.

ABSTRACT: This study assesses interactions of tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) gene polymorphisms with C-reactive protein (CRP) or lymphotoxin ? (LTA) gene on serum CRP and TNF-? levels and handgrip strength. Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including rs2794520, rs1205, rs1130864, rs1800947, and rs3093059 in CRP; rs1799964, rs1800629, and rs3093662 in TNF-?; and rs2239704, rs909253, and rs1041981 in LTA, were genotyped in 472 unrelated elders (mean age 73.8 years). Among elders with TNF-? rs1799964 AA genotype, adjusted mean difference for handgrip strength decreased by -2.60 (-4.82, -0.38) and -2.51 kg (-4.75, -0.28) for LTA rs909253 and rs1041981 in women and by -2.39 kg (-3.98, -0.81) for CRP rs3093059 in men. Among elders with TNF-? rs1799964 AA genotype, adjusted mean ratios for hs-CRP levels increased by 2.32 (1.38, 3.90) and 2.27 (1.35, 3.84) for both CRP rs909253 and rs1041981 in women. The A-A-C LTA haplotype was associated with TNF-? levels that were 1.55 times higher than those of the C-G-A haplotype (P = 0.005). The joint effects of SNPs (the rs1800947 or rs3093059 of CRP, rs1799964 or rs1800629 of TNF-?, and rs909253 or rs1041981 of LTA) and physical inactivity appeared to have greater magnitude of decreased handgrip strength than main effects of these SNPs and physical inactivity. Our data showed that significant interactions of TNF-?rs1799964 and LTA rs909253 were observed. Moreover, joint effects of these CRP, TNF-?, and LTA risk alleles with physical inactivity in elders were observed, suggesting that physical activity may modulate effects of genotypes on handgrip strength.

This study assesses interactions of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) gene polymorphisms with C-reactive protein (CRP) or lymphotoxin α (LTA) gene on serum CRP and TNF-α levels and handgrip strength. Eleven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including rs2794520, rs1205, rs1130864, rs1800947, and rs3093059 in CRP; rs1799964, rs1800629, and rs3093662 in TNF-α; and rs2239704, rs909253, and rs1041981 in LTA, were genotyped in 472 unrelated elders (mean age 73.8 years).

Project description:BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and inflammation are closely related. This study aimed to evaluate the associations and causal effect between C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels andOSA.MethodsPooled analysis was conducted to compare the expression differences of CRP and TNF-α between OSA patients with different severity and controls, and between continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and non-CPAP interventions for OSA patients. Using published GWAS summary statistics, we conducted a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian Randomization (MR) to estimate the causal relationships between CRP and TNF-α levels and OSA risk. Effect estimates were evaluated using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) as primary method, and several other MR methods as sensitivity analysis.ResultsBoth TNF-α (WMD [95%CI] = 5.86 [4.80-6.93] pg/ml, p < .00001) and CRP (WMD [95%CI] = 2.66 [2.15-3.17] mg/L, p < .00001), showed a significant increase in OSA patients compared with controls and this increasing trend was associated with OSA severity. Besides, compared to blank control (non-CPAP), CPAP treatment can reduce high TNF-α (WMD [95%CI]= -4.44 [-4.81, -4.07]pg/ml, p < .00001) and CRP (WMD [95%CI]= -0.91 [-1.65, -0.17] mg/l, p = .02) in OSA. Moreover, the primary MR analysis by IVW showed that OSA was the genetically predicted cause of elevated CRP (estimate: 0.095; 95% CI, [0.010-0.179]; p = .029) using six SNPs as the instrument variable, which were repeated by weighted median (estimate: 0.053; 95% CI, [0.007, 0.100]; p =.024) and MR RAPS (estimate: 0.109; 95% CI, [0.079, 0.140]; p = 1.98x10-12). Besides, the causal effect from elevated CRP on increased OSA risk was almost significant by IVW (OR:1.053; 95% CI, [1.000, 1.111]; p = .053). However, there were no causal associations between TNF-α and OSA from both directions.ConclusionsIncreased CRP and TNF-α were associated with OSA severity and sensible to CPAP treatment. Also, OSA had a suggestive causal effect on elevated CRP.
