Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the RAB5B gene 3'UTR region with polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese Han women.

ABSTRACT: Objective: Previous genome-wide sequencing revealed that Ras-related protein Rab-5B (RAB5B) is a susceptible target in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods: Direct sequencing was performed to analyze the RAB5B gene rs1045435, rs11550558, rs34962186, rs705700, rs58717357, rs11171718, rs60028217, rs772920 loci genotypes in 300 PCOS patients and 300 healthy controls. The plasma microRNA (miRNA)-24, miR-320 levels were measured by reverse transcription fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR).Results: The risk of PCOS in C allele carriers of RAB5B gene rs1045435 locus was 3.91 times higher than that of G allele. The risk of PCOS in rs11550558 locus G allele was 4.09 times higher than A allele. The risk of PCOS in rs705700 locus C allele was 1.66 times greater than T allele. The risk of PCOS in rs11171718 locus A allele carrier was 3.84 times higher than G allele. The rs11550558 SNP was associated with PCOS risk only in those with age???31.1 years. And RAB5B gene rs11550558, rs1045435, and rs11171718 SNPs were significantly associated with PCOS risk only in subjects with BMI???23.8?kg/m2 We also found that the RAB5B gene rs1045435 SNP was associated with plasma miR-24 levels. The RAB5B gene rs11550558, rs705700, rs11171718 SNPs were correlated with plasma miR-230 levels.Conclusion: The single nucleotide polymorphisms of the rs1045435, rs11550558, rs705700, and rs11171718 loci of the RAB5B gene are associated with PCOS risk. The rs1045435 locus is likely an miR-24 binding site, while rs11550558, rs705700, and rs11171718 loci may be miR-320 binding sites.

Project description:Are PCOS risk variants identified in women of Han Chinese ethnicity also associated with risk of PCOS or the phenotypic features of PCOS in European women?One variant, rs2268361-T, in the intron of FSHR was associated with PCOS and lower FSH levels, while another variant rs705702-G near the RAB5B and SUOX genes was associated with insulin and glucose levels after oral glucose testing in women with PCOS of European ethnicity.Three of the eleven variants associated with PCOS in the Han Chinese genome-wide association studies were also associated with PCOS in at least one European population when corrected for multiple testing (DENND1A, THADA and YAP1). However, additional replication is needed to establish the importance of these variants in European women and to determine the relationship to PCOS phenotypic traits.The study was a case-control examination in a discovery cohort of women with PCOS (n = 485) and controls (n = 407) from Boston (Boston 1). Replication was performed in women from Greece (cases n = 884 and controls n = 311) and an additional cohort from Boston (Boston electronic medical record (EMR); n = 350 cases and n = 1258 controls).Women had PCOS defined by the National Institutes of Health criteria in Boston 1 and Greece (n = 783), with additional subjects fulfilling the Rotterdam criteria (hyperandrogenism, polycystic ovary morphology and regular menses) in Greece (n = 101). Controls in Boston and Greece had regular menstrual cycles and no hyperandrogenism. The second cohort from Boston was defined using the EMR and natural language processing. Allele frequencies for variants associated with PCOS in Han Chinese women were examined in PCOS cases and controls, along with the relationship to quantitative traits.A variant rs2268361-T in an intron of FSHR was associated with PCOS (0.84 [0.76-0.93], OR [95% CI]; P = 0.002). The rs2268361-T was associated with lower FSH levels (-0.15 ± 0.05; P = 0.0029). A variant rs705702-G near RAB5B and SUOX was associated with insulin (-0.16 ± 0.05, P = 0.0029) and glucose levels (-0.20 ± 0.05, P = 0.0002) 120 min after an oral glucose test.The study was large and contained replication cohorts, but was limited by a small number of controls in the Greek cohort and a small number of cases in the second Boston cohort. The second Boston group was identified using electronic medical record review, but was validated for the cardinal features of PCOS.This study demonstrates a cross-ethnic PCOS risk locus in FSHR in women of European ancestry with PCOS. The variant may influence FSH receptor responsiveness as suggested by the associated change in FSH levels. The relationship between a variant near RAB5B and SUOX and glucose stimulated insulin and glucose levels suggests an influence of one of these genes on glucose tolerance, but the absence of a relationship with PCOS points to potential differences in the international PCOS patient populations.The project was supported by Award Number R01HD065029 from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute Of Child Health & Human Development, Award Number 1 UL1 RR025758, Harvard Clinical and Translational Science Center, from the National Center for Research Resources, award 1-10-CT-57 from the American Diabetes Association and the Partners Healthcare Center for Personalized Genetics Project Grant.
