ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate whether the association between a genetic profile risk score for obesity (GPRS-obesity) (based on 93 SNPs) and body mass index (BMI) was modified by physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory fitness, commuting mode, walking pace and sedentary behaviours.METHODS:
For the analyses we used cross-sectional baseline data from 310,652 participants in the UK Biobank study. We investigated interaction effects of GPRS-obesity with objectively measured and self-reported PA, cardiorespiratory fitness, commuting mode, walking pace, TV viewing, playing computer games, PC-screen time and total sedentary behaviour on BMI. Body mass index (BMI) was the main outcome measure.RESULTS:
GPRS-obesity was associated with BMI (ß0.54 kg.m-2 per standard deviation (SD) increase in GPRS, [95% CI 0.53; 0.56]; P = 2.1 × 10-241). There was a significant interaction between GPRS-obesity and objectively measured PA (P[interaction] = 3.3 × 10-11) among inactive individuals, BMI was higher by 0.58 kg.m-2 per SD increase in GPRS-obesity (p = 1.3 × 10-70) whereas among active individuals the relevant BMI difference was less (ß0.33 kg.m-2, p = 6.4 × 10-41). We observed similar patterns for fitness (Unfit ß0.72 versus Fit ß0.36 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 1.4 × 10-11), walking pace (Slow ß0.91 versus Brisk ß0.38 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 8.1 × 10-27), discretionary sedentary behaviour (High ß0.64 versus Low ß0.48 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 9.1 × 10-12), TV viewing (High ß0.62 versus Low ß0.47 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 1.7 × 10-11), PC-screen time (High ß0.82 versus Low ß0.54 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 0.0004) and playing computer games (Often ß0.69 versus Low ß0.52 kg.m-2, P[interaction] = 8.9 × 10-10). No significant interactions were found for commuting mode (car, public transport, active commuters).CONCLUSIONS:
Physical activity, sedentary behaviours and fitness modify the extent to which a set of the most important known adiposity variants affect BMI. This suggests that the adiposity benefits of high PA and low sedentary behaviour may be particularly important in individuals with high genetic risk for obesity.
