Correlation of growth differentiation factor-5 + 104T>C polymorphism with the risk of knee, hand, and hip osteoarthritis: a case-control study and meta-analysis based on 47 case-control studies. NUCLEOSIDES, NUCLEOTIDES & NUCLEIC ACIDS 2024:1-26. [PMID: 38743962 DOI: 10.1080/15257770.2024.2350531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) arises from a intricate interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Numerous studies have explored the link between the growth differentiation factor 5 (GDF-5) +104T>C polymorphism and OA risk, but the findings have been inconclusive. We carried out a case-control study with 704 OA cases and 418 healthy controls. Furthermore, we conducted a meta-analysis by thoroughly searching the literature for relevant studies published until 1 September, 2023. The combined odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals were used to assess the correlation's strength. A total of 47 independent case-control studies, including 17,602 OA cases and 30,947 controls, were analyzed. Of these, 31 studies (11,176 cases, 16,724 controls) focused on knee OA, 8 studies (3,973 cases, 8,055 controls) examined hip OA, and 6 studies (2244 cases, 5965 controls) investigated hand OA. Overall, our findings suggest that the GDF-5 + 104T>C polymorphism has a protectibe role in development of OA in global scale. Subgroup analyses by ethnicity indicated that this genetic variation provides protection against OA in Caucasian, Asian, and African populations. Further subgroup analysis based on the type of OA showed a decreased risk of knee and hand OA associated with this variation, but not for hip OA. Our combined data indicates that the GDF-5 + 104T>C polymorphism offers protection against the development of OA in general, as well as knee and hand OA. Nevertheless, there was no correlation found between this polymorphism and the development of hip OA.

Kim M, Rubab A, Chan WC, Chan D. Osteoarthritis year in review: genetics, genomics and epigenetics. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2023:S1063-4584(23)00725-2. [PMID: 36924918 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2023.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023]
Abstract
This "year in review" provides a summary of the research findings on the topic of genetics, genomics and epigenetics for osteoarthritis (OA) between Mar 2021-Apr 2022. A search routine of the literature in PubMed for the keyword, osteoarthritis, together with topics on genetics, genomics, epigenetics, polymorphism, DNA methylation, noncoding RNA, lncRNA, proteomics, and single cell RNA sequencing, returned key research articles and relevant reviews. Following filtering of duplicates across search routines, 695 unique research articles and 112 reviews were identified. We manually curated these articles and selected 90 as references for this review. However, we were unable to refer to all these articles, and only used selected articles to highlight key outcomes and trends. The trend in genetics is on the meta-analysis of existing cohorts with comparable genetic and phenotype characterisation of OA; in particular, clear definition of endophenotypes to enhance the genetic power. Further, many researchers are realizing the power of big data and multi-omics approaches to gain molecular insights for OA, and this has opened innovative approaches to include transcriptomics and epigenetics data as quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Given that most of the genetic loci for OA are not located within coding regions of genes, implying the impact is likely to be on gene regulation, epigenetics is a hot topic, and there is a surge in studies relating to the role of miRNA and long non-coding RNA on cartilage biology and pathology. The findings are exciting and new insights are provided in this review to summarize a year of research and the road map to capture all new innovations to achieve the desired goal in OA prevention and treatment.

Intergenic Interactions of SBNO1, NFAT5 and GLT8D1 Determine the Susceptibility to Knee Osteoarthritis among Europeans of Russia. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13020405. [PMID: 36836762 PMCID: PMC9960278 DOI: 10.3390/life13020405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the associations between genome-wide association studies (GWAS)-important single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA) among Europeans of Russia. The present replicative study ("patient-control" design has been used) was carried out on 1000 DNA samples from KOA (n = 500) and KOA-free (n = 500) participants. Ten GWAS-important for KOA SNPs of eight candidate genes (LYPLAL1, GNL3, GLT8D1, SBNO1, WWP2, NFAT5, TGFA, GDF5) were studied. To assess the link between SNPs and KOA susceptibility, logistic regression (to establish independent SNP effects) and MB-MDR (to identify SNP-SNP interactions) were used. As a result of this genetic analysis, the associations of individual SNPs with KOA have not been proven. Eight loci out of ten tested SNPs interacted with each other (within twelve genetic models) and determined susceptibility to KOA. The greatest contribution to the disease development were made by three polymorphisms/genes such as rs6976 (C>T) GLT8D1, rs56116847 (G>A) SBNO1, rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 (each was included in 2/3 [8 out 12] KOA-responsible genetic interaction models). A two-locus epistatic interaction of rs56116847 (G >A) SBNO1 × rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 determined the maximum percentage (0.86%) of KOA entropy. KOA-associated SNPs are regulatory polymorphisms that affect the expression/splicing level, epigenetic modification of 72 genes in KOA-pathogenetically significant organs such as skeletal muscles, tibial arteries/nerves, thyroid, adipose tissue, etc. These putative KOA-effector genes are mainly involved in the organization/activity of the exoribonuclease complex and antigen processing/presentation pathways. In conclusion, KOA susceptibility among Europeans of Russia is mediated by intergenic interactions (but not the main effects) of GWAS-important SNPs.

Abstract
Objective The association of fat mass and obesity-related (FTO) gene with osteoarthritis (OA) risk has been investigated in multiple genome-wide association studies but showed inconsistent results. Our study aimed to assess FTO expression in different OA sequencing datasets and to meta-analyze whether FTO polymorphism was associated with the risk of osteoarthritis. Method Gene expression profiles were obtained from ArrayExpress, Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and BioProject databases. Three electronic databases including PubMed and EMBASE were systematically retrieved to identify articles exploring the association between FTO polymorphisms and OA risk published before September 2022. Summary odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated to perform the result. Stata software was utilized to conduct analyses on predetermined ethnicity and gender subgroups and sensitivity. Results FTO gene was differentially expressed in the datasets from the UK. This systematic review and meta-analysis encompasses eight studies that revealed a significant association between FTO polymorphisms and OA risk [OR 1.07, 95% CI (1.03, 1.11), P < 0.001] in the overall population. In subgroup analysis, a marked association was observed in European Caucasian [OR 1.08, 95% CI (1.04–1.12), P < 0.001] and North American Caucasian with the Asian subgroups [OR 0.98, 95% CI (0.83–1. 6), P = 0.83] as an exception. Among the studies, four of them demonstrated attenuation in their OA risk after body mass index (BMI) adjustment in Caucasian populations. Conclusion FTO significant differential expression was associated with the increased risk of OA in Caucasian populations. Nevertheless, the causality between FTO polymorphisms and OA risk remains largely elusive. Hence, further studies with larger sample size are necessary to validate whether FTO gene polymorphism contributes to OA susceptibility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this review, we have highlighted the advances over the past year in genetics, genomics and epigenetics in the field of osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS A literature search of PubMed was performed using the criteria: "osteoarthritis" and one of the following terms "genetic(s), genomic(s), epigenetic(s), polymorphism, noncoding ribonucleic acid (RNA), microRNA, long noncoding RNA, lncRNA, circular RNA, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), single cell sequencing, transcriptomics, or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) methylation between April 01, 2020 and April 30, 2021. RESULTS In total we identified 765 unique publications, which eventually reduced to 380 of relevance to the field as judged by two assessors. Many of these studies included multiple search terms. We summarised advances relating to genetics, functional genetics, genomics and epigenetics, focusing on our personal key papers during the year. CONCLUSIONS This year few studies have identified new genetic variants contributing to OA susceptibility, but a focus has been on refining risk loci or their functional validation. The use of new technologies together with investigating the cross-talk between multiple tissue types, greater sample sizes and/or better patient classification (OA subtypes) will continue to increase our knowledge of disease mechanisms and progress towards understanding and treating OA.
