IDUA Gene Variants and Response to Zoledronic Acid Treatment in Chinese Women with Postmenopausal Osteoporosis.


ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Alpha-L-iduronidase (IDUA) rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms have been demonstrated to be associated with bone mineral density (BMD). However, no study has investigated the association of these two polymorphisms with osteoporosis (OP) susceptibility in Chinese postmenopausal women.

Patients and methods

IDUA gene polymorphisms were genotyped in 278 women with OP and 303 healthy controls via polymerase chain reaction and Sanger sequencing.

Results

Our data indicated that IDUA rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms increased the risk of OP in homozygous, dominant, and allelic models. We observed lower lumbar spine BMD in younger women with the AA genotype of rs3755955 polymorphism. Finally, mutant genotypes with rs6831280 polymorphism were more sensitive to zoledronic acid treatment, and the treatment effect was significant in terms of BMD levels.

Conclusion

In conclusion, IDUA rs3755955 and rs6831280 polymorphisms demonstrated susceptibility to OP in Chinese postmenopausal women. IDUA rs6831280 polymorphism caused differences in response to zoledronic acid treatment.
