Polymorphisms in Interleukin-6 (IL6) and its receptor (IL6R) have been associated with bone mineral density. In this work, the G-174C and G-572C polymorphisms in IL6, G-208A, and Asp358Ala in IL6R were analyzed in Mexican women with hip fracture.
Postmenopausal Mexican women (60 years or over) with hip fragility fracture (77.97 ± 8 years) and without hip fracture (70.5 ± 7.02 years) were genotyped by real-time PCR.
The rs1800796 GG genotype was associated with low risk of fracture (p = 0.05), while GC genotype was associated with high risk of fracture [p = 0.047, OR 2.3 (95% CI 1.013-5.2)]. The AA genotype of the rs2228145 SNP (IL6R) was significantly different [p = 0.033, OR 1.94 (95% CI 1.01-3.75)], but when data were adjusted by age and body mass index, there were no differences (p = 0.9).
Our results suggest that the IL6 rs1800796 SNP is a good marker for hip fracture risk in Mexican women.
白细胞介素-6(IL-6)及其受体(IL-6R)的多态性与骨密度有关。在这项工作中,分析了墨西哥髋部骨折女性的 IL-6 的 G-174C 和 G-572C 多态性、IL-6R 的 G-208A 和 Asp358Ala 多态性。
对绝经后髋部脆性骨折(60 岁及以上)的墨西哥女性(77.97±8 岁)和无髋部骨折的女性(70.5±7.02 岁)进行实时 PCR 基因分型。
rs1800796 GG 基因型与骨折风险低相关(p=0.05),而 GC 基因型与骨折风险高相关(p=0.047,OR 2.3(95%CI 1.013-5.2))。rs2228145 SNP(IL-6R)的 AA 基因型差异显著(p=0.033,OR 1.94(95%CI 1.01-3.75)),但当数据按年龄和体重指数调整时,无差异(p=0.9)。
我们的结果表明,IL-6 rs1800796 SNP 是墨西哥女性髋部骨折风险的一个良好标志物。
