Correlation Between Vitamin D Receptor Genotypes and Bone Mineral Density in Japanese Patients with Osteoporosis

In order to better understand the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, we investigated the correlation between the vitamin D receptor (VDR) genotypes defined by BsmI restriction enzyme, as well as other related factors, and the bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine in 90 Japanese patients with osteoporosis. The same study was performed in 36 patients with osteoarthrosis of the hip joint and 92 healthy volunteers. The majority of the VDR genotypes were bb, and a few of the population showed either the BB or Bb genotype in all three groups. There was no statistical difference in the frequencies of these VDR genotypes in the three groups. The mean age-matched value of BMD (Z scores) at the lumbar spine in patients with osteoporosis was significantly lower than that in patients with osteoarthrosis or healthy volunteers. The mean Z scores of the healthy volunteers with bb genotype were significantly higher than those with BB genotype, whereas those of the osteoporosis patients with BB genotype were significantly higher than those with Bb genotype. There was no significant difference in the mean Z scores between bb and Bb genotypes in patients with osteoporosis and healthy volunteers. No significant difference was seen in the mean Z scores in patients with osteoarthrosis regardless of genotype. On the other hand, body weight significantly correlated with BMD in patients with osteoporosis by simple- and multiple-regression analysis. These results indicate that the BMD at the lumbar spine in Japanese patients with osteoporosis is affected by body weight, and might be affected partially by the VDR genotypes defined by BsmI.

Does the vitamin D receptor genotype predict bone mineral loss in haemodialysed patients?

Background. It has been suggested that the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene BsmI-polymorphism is a genetic determinant of bone metabolism. Design. To test this hypothesis, the relationship between VDR genotypes, bone mineral density (baseline and after 18 months) and parameters of calcium metabolism and bone turnover were investigated prospectively in 88 haemodialysed patients not receiving active vitamin D metabolites. Methods. Whole body, lumbar spine and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD) were assessed by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). In addition calcium, phosphorus, 25(OH)D3, 1,25(OH)2D3, osteocalcin serum concentrations, alkaline phosphatase activity and intact, 1,84 PTH levels were measured. Results. VDR genotype BB, Bb and bb were found in 27, 49 and 24% of patients. Initial BMD (g/cm²) of whole body, lumbar spine and femoral neck did not differ between genotypes (whole body: BB 1.055 ± 0.120, Bb 1.082 ± 0.102, bb 1.128 ± 0.120; lumbar spine: BB 1.075 ± 0.199, Bb 1.079 ± 0.185, bb 1.099 ± 0.170; femoral neck: BB 0.808 ± 0.160, Bb 0.862 ± 0.127, bb 0.842 ± 0.125; mean ± SD), but the decrease of whole body and femoral neck BMD during 18 months was significantly (P < 0.02) different between the genotype groups (whole body: BB -0.048 ± 0.028, Bb -0.031 ± 0.029, bb -0.024 ± 0.023; femoral neck BB -0.044 ± 0.069, Bb -0.032 ± 0.081, bb -0.012 ± 0.029 g/cm²). Conclusions. This preliminary study suggests faster mineral loss in BB genotype of VDR in haemodialysed patients.     

Early and Late Postmenopausal Bone Loss is Associated with BsmI Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphism in Japanese Women

To determine whether vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms are associated with bone mineral density (BMD) and bone loss in the Japanese population, VDR BsmI RFLPs were analyzed in 191 postmenopausal Japanese women by comparing B allele and b allele DNA sequences, and a point mutation was confirmed. We examined VDR BsmI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) with an amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) using this point of mutation. The frequency of VDR BsmI alleles in the Japanese population was significantly different from that in whites. The bb genotype was identified in 79.6%, of the subjects, the Bb genotype in 19.3%, and the BB genotype was in only 1.1%. We find no significant differences in lumbar spine baseline BMD between the bb genotype and the Bb genotype. In both early and late postmenopausal periods, serial measurements of vertebral BMD revealed that subjects with the Bb genotype lost BMD faster than those with the bb genotype (P= 0.001). We conclude that there is a significant relationship between RFLPs of BsmI VDR and the annual rates of bone loss during early and late postmenopausal periods in the Japanese population.

VDR基因型分布及其与骨矿含量的关系

近年来，在骨质疏松研究领域，维生素Ｄ受体基因（ＶＤＲ）与骨量及骨代谢的研究受到许多国外学者的重视。我们利用国际合作的机会，对９６名沈阳妇女ＶＤＲ基因进行了分析。研究对象来自于一项正在进行的骨代谢影响因素研究课题。采用标准方法（Ｎｕｃｌｅｏｎｋｉｔ，ｓｃｏｔｌａｂ，ＵＫ）从白细胞中提取ＤＮＡ，以聚合酶链反应（ＰＣＲ）来扩增特定基因段。用ＢｓａＭＩ限制性内切酶消化ＰＣＲ产物，以２％琼脂糖电泳分离判定ＶＤＲ基因型。使用ＤＰＸ－Ｌ（ＬｕｎａｒＵＳＡ）骨矿测定仪测定研究对象的腰椎（Ｌ２～４）及髋部骨矿含量（ＢＭＣ）。结果：与其他国家人群相比，该人群ＶＤＲ基因的分布状态不同。ＶＤＲ基因的ｂｂ型占总数的９１．７％；Ｂｂ型仅占８．３％，而且ＢＢ基因型完全不存在。在青年妇女中发现ｂｂ基因型组股骨颈ＢＭＣ高于Ｂｂ型组股骨颈ＢＭＣ（Ｐ＝０．０２７）。老年妇女ｂｂ基因型组股骨颈ＢＭＣ也高于Ｂｂ型组，但差异无统计学意义，没有发现其他部位ＢＭＣ与ＶＤＲ基因型有关。     

Risk factors for osteoporosis after renal transplantation and effect of vitamin D receptor Bsm I polymorphism

Objective

Rapid loss of vertebral or hip mineral density after renal transplantation is a major complication which occurs within 6-12 months. The aim of this study was to evaluate risk factors contributing to bone disease in the early stage after renal transplantation and the effect of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms.

Methods

We prospectively followed for up to 12 months 44 patients (29 men and 15 women) with end-stage renal disease who underwent kidney transplantation. All patients received prednisone with either cyclosporine (CsA)/mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or tacrolimus (Tac)/MMF therapy. Spine, hip, and whole body bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at 12 months after transplantation. According to World Health Organization recommendations, our patients were categorized as normal, osteopenic, or osteoporotic BMD levels. VDR alleles were genotyped as BB, Bb, or bb by polymerase chain reactions based on polymorphism at the Bsm I restriction site.

Results

Forty-six percent of patients were normal, 43% osteopenic, and 11% osteoporotic. Significant risk factors for osteoporosis among renal transplant recipients were younger age and pretransplant high intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels. (P values .045 and .027, respectively). According to polymorphic group categorization, posttransplant serum Ca was significantly higher in patients with BB or Bb genotype than in those with bb genotype (P = .012). Although there was no statistical significance regarding iPTH levels, it was higher among Bb+BB than the bb genotype group. Also, first-year BMD analysis after transplantation according to Bsm I polymorphism showed significant differences in femur BMD levels according to the dual classification of polymorphism (P < .05). The BMD levels in the bb group was higher than in the Bb+BB group.

Conclusions

Although high pretransplant iPTH levels and younger age enhanced posttransplant bone loss, functionally different alleles of the VDR gene may modulate bone turnover during the first year after renal transplantation.     

Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms, Bone Mass, Bone Loss and Prevalence of Vertebral Fracture: Differences in Postmenopausal Women and Men

Bone mineral density (BMD), the major determinant of fracture risk, is under strong genetic control. Although polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene have been suggested to account for some of the genetic variation in bone mass, the influence of VDR genotypes on osteoporosis remains controversial. Previous published studies have focused mainly on women, but the pattern of response in men has not been determined. Using the BsmI restriction enzyme, we studied the influence of the different VDR genotypes on bone mass, bone loss and the prevalence of vertebral fractures in a population-based sample of both sexes (n = 326). BMD was measured at the lumbar spine and femoral neck, with a 4-year interval, using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Vertebral fractures were assessed by two lateral radiographs at the beginning and end of the study. The prevalence of the three possible VDR genotypes was similar to those in other Caucasian populations and no differences were found between men and women. Women with the favorable bb genotype showed significantly higher BMD values at the lumbar spine and femoral neck, and a positive rate of BMD change at the femoral neck compared with women with the BB and Bb genotypes. Moreover, women with the bb genotype showed a trend toward a lower prevalence and incidence of vertebral fractures (p= 0.07). We have not found any differences between VDR genotypes in men. In conclusion, VDR gene polymorphisms are related to bone mass and bone loss in women; also a trend in the prevalence of vertebral fractures was observed in postmenopausal women but not in men.
