Shin D, Lee KW. Fruit and Vegetable Consumption Interacts With HNF1A Variants on the C-Reactive Protein. Front Nutr 2022; 9:900867. [PMID: 35873425 PMCID: PMC9301302 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.900867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated the inverse association between the intake of fruits and vegetables and inflammation. However, the mechanisms by which inflammation-related genes interact with fruit and vegetable intake and the role of these combinations in inflammation remain unclear. Therefore, we assessed the effect of interactions between fruit and vegetable intake and the hepatic nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1A) genetic variants on the C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Baseline data from the Ansan and Ansung Cohort Study of the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) were used. A total of 7,634 participants (3,700 men and 3,934 women) were included in the analyses. Fruit and vegetable intake was assessed using semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire data. Genotyping information for HNF1A was extracted from the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP array 5.0. Inflammation was determined after overnight fasting by measuring CRP levels using automated analyzers. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). In the fully adjusted model, men and women with the GG genotype of HNF1A rs2393791 and high fruit intake had lower odds of elevated CRP levels compared to those with the AA genotype and low fruit intake (AOR 0.50, 95% CI 0.38–0.67; AOR 0.73, 95% CI 0.55–0.97, respectively). Men and women with the rs2393791 GG genotype and high vegetable intake had lower odds of having elevated CRP levels compared to those with the AA genotype and low fruit intake (AOR 0.57, 95% CI 0.43–0.75; AOR 0.65, 95% CI 0.49–0.86, respectively). Men and women with the GG genotype and high total fruit and vegetable intake had lower odds of having elevated CRP levels. These findings indicate that fruit and vegetable intake interacts with HNF1A genetic polymorphisms, consequently influencing the inflammation levels.

Abstract
Mate is a traditional drink obtained from the leaves of yerba mate and rich in a diversity of plant bioactive compounds including polyphenols, particularly chlorogenic acids. Studies, even though limited, suggest that consumption of mate is associated with health effects, including prevention of cardiometabolic disorders. Molecular mechanisms underlying the potential health properties are still largely unknown, especially in humans. The aim of this study was to investigate nutrigenomic effects of mate consumption and identify regulatory networks potentially mediating cardiometabolic health benefits. Healthy middle-aged men at risk for cardiovascular disease consumed a standardized mate extract or placebo for 4 weeks. Global gene expression, including protein coding and non-coding RNAs profiles were determined using microarrays. Biological function analyses were performed using integrated bioinformatic tools. Comparison of global gene expression profiles showed significant change following mate consumption with 2635 significantly differentially expressed genes, among which 6 are miRNAs and 244 are lncRNAs. Functional analyses showed that these genes are involved in regulation of cell interactions and motility, inflammation or cell signaling. Transcription factors, such as MEF2A, MYB or HNF1A, could have their activity modulated by mate consumption either by direct interaction with polyphenol metabolites or by interactions of metabolites with cell signaling proteins, like p38 or ERK1/2, that could modulate transcription factor activity and regulate expression of genes observed. Correlation analysis suggests that expression profile is inversely associated with gene expression profiles of patients with cardiometabolic disorders. Therefore, mate consumption may exert cardiometabolic protective effects by modulating gene expression towards a protective profile.

Williams PT. Quantile-dependent expressivity of serum C-reactive protein concentrations in family sets. PeerJ 2021; 9:e10914. [PMID: 33628645 PMCID: PMC7894107 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.10914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2020] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background “Quantile-dependent expressivity” occurs when the effect size of a genetic variant depends upon whether the phenotype (e.g., C-reactive protein, CRP) is high or low relative to its distribution. We have previously shown that the heritabilities (h2) of coffee and alcohol consumption, postprandial lipemia, lipoproteins, leptin, adiponectin, adiposity, and pulmonary function are quantile-specific. Whether CRP heritability is quantile-specific is currently unknown. Methods Serum CRP concentrations from 2,036 sibships and 6,144 offspring-parent pairs were analyzed from the Framingham Heart Study. Quantile-specific heritability from full-sib (βFS, h2 ={(1 + 8rspouseβFS)0.5 − 1}/(2rspouse)) and offspring-parent regression slopes (βOP, h2 = 2βOP/(1 + rspouse)) were estimated robustly by quantile regression with nonparametric significance determined from 1,000 bootstrap samples. Results Quantile-specific h2 (±SE) increased with increasing percentiles of the offspring’s age- and sex-adjusted CRP distribution when estimated from βOP (Ptrend = 0.0004): 0.02 ± 0.01 at the 10th, 0.04 ± 0.01 at the 25th, 0.10 ± 0.02 at the 50th, 0.20 ± 0.05 at the 75th, and 0.33 ± 0.10 at the 90th percentile, and when estimated from βFS (Ptrend = 0.0008): 0.03±0.01 at the 10th, 0.06 ± 0.02 at the 25th, 0.14 ± 0.03 at the 50th, 0.24 ± 0.05 at the 75th, and 0.53 ± 0.21 at the 90th percentile. Conclusion Heritability of serum CRP concentration is quantile-specific, which may explain or contribute to the inflated CRP differences between CRP (rs1130864, rs1205, rs1800947, rs2794521, rs3091244), FGB (rs1800787), IL-6 (rs1800795, rs1800796), IL6R (rs8192284), TNF-α (rs1800629) and APOE genotypes following CABG surgery, stroke, TIA, curative esophagectomy, intensive periodontal therapy, or acute exercise; during acute coronary syndrome or Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia; or in patients with chronic rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, peripheral arterial disease, ankylosing spondylitis, obesity or inflammatory bowel disease or who smoke.

Association of Common Variants in HNF1A Gene with Serum AFP Level in Healthy Chinese Individuals and HCC Patients. DISEASE MARKERS 2020; 2019:6273497. [PMID: 31915469 PMCID: PMC6935455 DOI: 10.1155/2019/6273497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2019] [Revised: 08/24/2019] [Accepted: 09/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Although alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a widely used tumor marker in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 40% of newly diagnosed patients do not have an elevated AFP level. Research has revealed that mutations in the HNF1A binding site of the AFP gene promoter cause significantly elevated serum AFP levels in patients with hereditary persistence of AFP. This study investigated the relationship between HNF1A genetic variants and serum AFP levels. We examined the association between the HNF1A-rs1169288 (A/C), rs2464196 (G/A), and rs1169310 (C/T) polymorphisms and AFP levels in a healthy Chinese population (n = 1010) and HCC patients (n = 185). Single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped by the amplification refractory mutation system combined with TaqMan probe in real-time PCR. The serum AFP concentrations were measured using the Architect i2000 immunochemistry analyzer. In healthy individuals, serum AFP levels were significantly lower with the rs2464196-AA and rs1169310-TT genotypes. Similar significant differences were observed in HCC patients. Moreover, in HCC patients, the distribution frequencies of rs2464196-AA+AG and rs1169310-TT+TC among those with AFP ≤ 20 ng/ml or ≤400 ng/ml were significantly lower than those in patients with AFP > 20 ng/ml or >400 ng/ml. Among all subjects, those carrying the HNF1A-rs2464196-A or rs1169310-T allele tended to have low levels of AFP. However, the HNF1A-rs1169288 polymorphism showed no significant association with the serum AFP level. These findings provide new insight into the genetic determinants of serum AFP level and can aid the differential diagnosis of HCC patients with low serum AFP.

Abstract
The paper reports a biosensor formed from antibody coated ZnO nano-crystals which has been prepared using a rapid and inexpensive fabrication method which utilises colloidal dispersion enhanced using sonication. This technique was used to prepare highly ordered and uniform nano-crystalline sensor surfaces on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) using 0.5%, 1% and 5% concentrations of zinc oxide nano-crystal suspensions. Impedance spectroscopy was employed to interrogate the sensor surfaces and confirmed high reproducibility of the fabrication process. Changes in impedance values, at a frequency of 138 Hz, were used to establish dose dependent responses for C-reactive protein (CRP) antigen. A limit of detection of less than 1 ng/ml was demonstrated for nano-surfaces fabricated from concentrations of 1% ZnO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1α gene (HNF1A) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with serum lipid traits in several previous genome-wide association studies. However, little is known about such associations in the Chinese populations. The present study aimed to determine the association of the HNF1A rs1169288, rs2259820, rs2464196 and rs2650000 SNPs and serum lipid traits, the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and ischemic stroke (IS). METHODS The genotypes of the four SNPs in 562 CAD and 521 IS patients, as well as 594 healthy controls, were detected using the Snapshot technology. RESULTS The genotype and allele distribution of the four SNPs was not different between controls and CAD or IS patients (p > 0.05 for all). rs1169288, rs2259820 and rs2464196 SNPs were significantly associated with serum lipid levels in both controls and CAD patients (p < 0.004-0.009). rs2259820 and rs2464196 SNPs were significantly associated with a lower risk of CAD [odds ratio (OR) = 0.64, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.44-0.91, p = 0.015 and OR =0.62, 95% CI = 0.43-0.89, p = 0.010, respectively]. Significant linkage disequilibrium was noted among the four SNPs (r2 > 0.5, D' > 0.8). The haplotype of rs1169288A-rs2259820C-rs2464196G-rs2650000A was associated with an increased risk of CAD (OR =1.95, 95% CI: 1.13-3.37, p = 0.015). Interactions of SNP-SNP (rs1169288-rs2464196-rs2650000) and haplotype-environment on the risk of CAD (A-C-G-A-smoking) or IS (A-C-G-A-sex and A-T-A-C-alcohol consumption) were also observed among these SNPs. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the HNF1A polymorphisms may be the genetic risk factors for CAD and IS.

Abstract
AIMS Variants in Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1 alpha (HNF1A) gene are associated with Metabolic Syndromeand its components independently. In this study, we aimed to assess the statistical association of the rs1169288, rs2464196 and rs735396 variants and haplotypes of HNF1A gene with metabolic syndrome (MS) and its components in a Moroccan population sample. METHODS Three variants in the HNF1A gene were genotyped, rs1169288 A>C, rs2464196 G>A and rs735396 T>C in cases and controls from Moroccan population using KASPar® technology (KBioscience, UK). Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were assessed. MS was defined according to the international Diabetes Federation (IDF). The effects of HNF1A polymorphisms and constructed haplotypes on MS were estimated using logistic regression analyses. RESULTS The HNF1A gene, rs1169288 and rs2464196 variants conferred an increased risk to MS (OR=2.08, 95%CI=1.38-3.14, P=0.0005 and OR=1.52, 95%IC=1.05-2.20, P=0.03, respectively) when adjusted for BMI, sex and age. We found that the C allele of the variant rs735396 was associated with an increased triglycerides level (p-value=0.04434) among patients and high weist circumference (P=0.02005) and total cholesterol (P=0.03227) amount among controls. The haplotype AAT (OR=5.656, P<0.00001) was the most significantly associated with susceptibility to metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that SNPs rs1169288 and rs2464196 of HNF1A gene were significantly associated with metabolic syndrome in a Morrocan population. Furthermore, the CAC, AAC, AAT and AGT haplotypes of these SNPs and rs735396 were significantly associated with metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
Elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Caucasians; however, evidence is lacking for East Asians, who have low CRP levels. PubMed and Google Scholar searches were conducted (1966 through September 2014), and eight prospective studies in East Asian countries (China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Macao, Mongolia, and Taiwan) that documented risk ratios of elevated CRP for CVD were included for meta-analysis with random-effects models. The overall association between CRP levels and stroke was significant in six studies (risk ratio = 1.40 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 1.10–1.77], P = 0.008). The association with ischemic stroke was more evident in subgroup analyses. For coronary heart disease (CHD) and CVD, the risk ratio was 1.75 (95% CI, 0.96–3.19, P = 0.07) and 1.76 (95% CI, 1.29–2.40, P < 0.001), respectively. Although East Asians have low CRP levels, this meta-analysis shows that elevated CRP levels were significantly associated with an increased risk of stroke, primarily ischemic stroke.

Abstract
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs)-α, -β/δ, and -γ are the ligand-activated transcription factors that function as the master regulators of glucose, fatty acid and lipoprotein metabolism, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. Our aim was to test the association between ten single nucleotide polymorphisms of PPARs and CRP level, as well as their interaction with overweight/obesity. A sample population of 643 subjects was recruited from the prevention of MetS and multi-metabolic disorders in Jiangsu Province of China Study. The selected SNPs in PPAR α (rs135539, rs4253778, rs1800206), PPAR β/δ (rs2016520 and rs9794), and PPAR γ (rs10865710, rs1805192, rs709158, rs3856806, and rs4684847) were genotyped. After adjustment for smoking, alcohol consumption, SBP, DBP, TG, and HDL-C, rs1800206, rs709158, rs1805192, and rs4684847 polymorphisms were significantly associated with CRP level in normal weight subjects (P < 0.05). In the overweight/obese subjects, rs1800206 was also significant associated with CRP level (P<0.01). In addition, the rs709158, rs1805192, and rs4684847 polymorphisms were shown interactions with overweight/obesity to influence CRP level (P<0.05). PPARs polymorphisms are independently associated with CRP levels in Chinese Han population. Further, PPARs polymorphisms interact with overweight/obesity to set CRP levels.

A Polymorphism in Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1 Alpha, rs7310409, Is Associated with Left Main Coronary Artery Disease. Biochem Res Int 2014; 2014:924105.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the world. Left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) is a particularly severe phenotypic form of CAD and has a genetic basis. We hypothesized that some inflammation- and hyperhomocysteinemia-related gene polymorphisms may contribute to LMCAD susceptibility in a Chinese population. We studied the association between polymorphisms in the genes hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1A; rs7310409, G/A), C-reactive protein (rs1800947 and rs3093059 T/C), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (rs1801133, C/T), and methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (rs1076991, A/G) in 402 LMCAD and 804 more peripheral CAD patients in a Chinese population. Genotyping was performed using the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry method. When the HNF1A rs7310409 GG homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, both the individual, GA and AA, and combined GA/AA genotypes were associated with an increased risk of LMCAD. This single nucleotide polymorphism (rs7310409) is strongly associated with plasma CRP levels. In conclusion, the present study provides evidence that the HNF1A rs7310409 G/A functional polymorphism may contribute to the risk of LMCAD.

We examined the role of hepatic nuclear factor-1 alpha (HNF1a) gene polymorphism on coronary artery disease (CAD) traits in 4631 Saudi angiographed individuals (2419 CAD versus 2212 controls) using TaqMan assay on ABI Prism 7900HT sequence detection system. Following adjustment for confounders, the rs2259820_CC (1.19 (1.01–1.42); P = 0.041), rs2464196_TT (1.19 (1.00–1.40); P = 0.045), and rs2259816_T (1.13 (1.01–1.26); P = 0.031) were associated with MI. The rs2259820_T (1.14 (1.03–1.26); P = 0.011) and rs2464196_C (1.12 (1.02–1.24); P = 0.024) were associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), while the rs2393791_T (1.14 (1.01–1.28); P = 0.032), rs7310409_G (1.16 (1.03–1.30); P = 0.013), and rs2464196_AG+GG (1.25 (1.05–1.49); P = 0.012) were implicated in hypertension. Hypertriglyceridemia was linked to the rs2393791_T (1.14 (1.02–1.27); P = 0.018), rs7310409_G (1.12 (1.01–1.25); P = 0.031), rs1169310_G (1.15 (1.04–1.28); P = 0.010), and rs1169313_CT+TT (1.24 (1.06–1.45); P = 0.008) and high low density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels were associated with rs2259820_T (1.23 (1.07–1.41); P = 0.004), rs2464196_T (1.22 (1.06–1.39); P = 0.004), and rs2259816_T (1.18 (1.02–1.36); P = 0.023). A 7-mer haplotype CATATAC (χ2 = 7.50; P = 0.0062), constructed from the studied SNPs, was associated with MI, and CATATA implicated in T2DM (χ2 = 3.94; P = 0.047). Hypertriglyceridemia was linked to TGCGGG (χ2 = 4.26; P = 0.039), and obesity to ACGGGT (χ2 = 5.04; P = 0.025). Our results suggest that the HNF1a is a common susceptibility gene for MI, T2DM, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.

Hypertens Res 2014; 37:692-8. [PMID: 24671014 DOI: 10.1038/hr.2014.56] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2013] [Revised: 01/12/2014] [Accepted: 02/14/2014] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) level is a predictor of cardiovascular risk. We performed a meta-analysis on the effect of 12 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 8 candidate loci in 36 752 Asians. In addition, we created weighted genetic risk scores (wGRSs) to evaluate the combined effects of genetic variants, which were suggested in the meta-analysis, for predicting the risks of elevated CRP levels as well as increased risks of hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in 748 Koreans. Nine SNPs located in seven genes, CRP, IL6R, GCKR, IL6, CYP17A1, HNF1A and APOE, were significantly associated with circulating CRP levels in this meta-analysis. Two SNPs, rs7310409 (HNF1A, P=3.4 × 10(-23)) and rs7553007 (CRP, P=3.4 × 10(-17)), had the most significant effects on CRP levels; and two SNPs, rs2097677 (IL6) and rs1004467 (CYP17A1) have never been found in the previous European meta-analysis. In Koreans, the subjects in the highest wGRS group had an ∼2.5-fold higher mean CRP level compared with those in the lowest wGRS group (P=2.1 × 10(-5)). We observed significant increases in the risks of hypertension (odds ratio=2.18, P=0.006) and CVD (odds ratio=9.59, P=3.2 × 10(-6)) among the subjects in the highest wGRS group. The wGRS models specific to Koreans may warrant further validation to be used as a proxy for the risk of CVD in Asians.

Genetic polymorphisms of UGT1A8, UGT1A9 and HNF-1α and gastrointestinal symptoms in renal transplant recipients taking mycophenolic acid. Transpl Immunol 2013; 29:155-61. [PMID: 23721685 DOI: 10.1016/j.trim.2013.05.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2013] [Revised: 05/16/2013] [Accepted: 05/16/2013] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Mycophenolic acid (MPA), a widely used immunosuppressant, has a complex metabolism that involves a number of enzymes. Some of its metabolites are thought to be the cause of gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. In this study, we investigated whether polymorphisms of UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT1) A8, 1A9, and hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF1α) genes or pharmacokinetic parameters of mycophenolic acid (MPA) were associated with the severity of GI symptoms in patients receiving MPA therapy. A total of 109 kidney transplant patients taking mycophenolic acid (MPA) derivatives were genotyped for UGT1A8, 1A9 and HNF1α genes. Among these, a total of 15 patients were participants in the pharmacokinetic study. Severity of GI symptoms was assessed using a validated Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS). The overall and subscale GSRS scores were measured at 1 week (baseline), 2 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post-transplantation. In the case of the pharmacokinetic study, EC-MPS was administered and a total of nine blood samples were obtained at -1, 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12h. Genotypes of UGT1A8 were significantly associated with the overall GSRS scores at week 1 (p=0.02) and week 2 (p=0.036). Subscales were only statistically significant for constipation at week 1 (p=0.002) and indigestion at week 2 (p=0.02), while UGT1A9 was only significant for the constipation at week 1 (p=0.04). HNF1α genotypes were significantly different at week 1 in the overall GSRS (p=0.004), and for abdominal pain (p=0.04), acid reflux (p=0.036) and constipation subscales (p=0.04). In addition, abdominal pain was statistically significantly different at 3 months and 6 months after transplantation (p=0.03 and 0.02, respectively). In the case of the pharmacokinetic study, we have found some correlations between MPAC0 and constipation (p=0.02) where MPAAUC was correlated with acid reflux (p=0.02) and constipation (p=0.012), MPAGCL/F was correlated to acid reflux, indigestion, constipation and the sum of the GSRS scores (p=0.037, p=0.032, p=0.033 and p=0.04, respectively). Multinomial regression analysis for MPAGCL/F showed a statistical significance for the subscale indigestion and the sum of the GSRS (p=0.033 and p=0.037, respectively). Our data suggests that among patients receiving MPA the UGT1A9 alleles might play a role in determining the severity of early GI side effects, while the HNF1α allele appears to be associated with a later effect as well as early side effects. Our data also showed that some kinetic parameters might predict MPA side effects.

Genetic variants associated with circulating MMP1 levels near matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 11q21-22 in Taiwanese: interaction with obesity. BMC MEDICAL GENETICS 2013; 14:30. [PMID: 23497408 PMCID: PMC3599409 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2350-14-30] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2012] [Accepted: 02/11/2013] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND MMP1 is implicated in the pathogenesis of atherothrombotic cardiovascular disease. We aimed to elucidate genetic determinants of inflammatory marker levels, including circulating MMP1, in Taiwanese, and their association with obesity. METHODS Five genetic polymorphisms around matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 11q21-22 region were genotyped in 519 subjects. RESULTS After adjusting for clinical covariates, two polymorphisms were significantly associated with MMP1 levels, rs1799750 and rs495366, using an additive inheritance model (P = 1.5x10-4 and P = 2.57x10-5, respectively). Using dominant model, minor alleles of rs1799750 and rs495366 were associated with higher MMP1 levels (P = 1.3x10-4 and P = 1.95x10-5, respectively). In haplotype analysis, two haplotypes inferred from five SNPs (A2GATA and A1GATG) were associated with MMP1 levels (P = 5x10-4 and P = 8.47x10-5, respectively). Subgroup and interaction analysis revealed an association of rs1799750 and rs495366 with MMP1 levels only in non-obese subjects (P = 6.66x10-6 and P = 4.38x10-5, respectively, and interaction P = 0.008 for rs1799750). Haplotype interaction analysis also showed significant interaction for haplotype A1GATG (interaction P = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Genotypes/haplotypes around MMP1 locus are associated with MMP1 levels in Taiwanese. Further, since genotypes/haplotypes near MMP1 locus interact with obesity to set MMP1 levels, genetic determinants for MMP1 level may be different between obese and non-obese individuals.
