ABSTRACT
NEW FINDINGS:
What is the central question of this study? We investigated whether the LPL gene rs283 polymorphism affects exercise-induced changes in body composition and lipid and glucose metabolism in obese adolescents and whether it is functional. What is the main finding and its importance? Chinese obese adolescents of Han nationality with the GG genotype of the rs283 polymorphism were more sensitive to exercise-induced reduction of the body fat percentage, insulin resistance and plasma triglyceride levels. The G allele can significantly increase reporter gene expression level, which may be the molecular reason for the difference in exercise-induced parameter changes among obese adolescents. The aim of this investigation was to explore the association between the rs283 polymorphism located in the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene and exercise-induced changes in body composition and lipid and glucose metabolism in obese adolescents and to probe into the molecular regulatory mechanisms. Fifty-five obese adolescents of Han nationality underwent aerobic training for 4 weeks. Body composition and lipid and glucose metabolic parameters were tested before and after the training. The rs283 polymorphism was genotyped by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism, and association analysis with the weight-reducing effect was performed. The regulatory mechanisms of the rs283 polymorphism were explored through the dual-luciferase reporter assay. Exercise-induced change rates were as follows the change in body fat percentage of GG genotype groups was 3.37 ± 1.60, significantly higher than that of GA genotype groups (2.09 ± 1.53, P < 0.01); the change in the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance was 0.52 ± 0.13, obviously higher than that of GA genotype groups (0.44 ± 0.10, P < 0.05); and the change in triglyceride was 51.91 ± 6.56, much higher than that of GA genotype groups (47.06 ± 5.36, P < 0.01). The relative luciferase activity of the reporter gene in recombinant vector carrying the G allele was 2.67 ± 0.22, markedly higher than that in recombinant vector carrying the A allele (1.63 ± 0.03, P < 0.01). Chinese obese adolescents of Han nationality with GG genotype of the rs283 polymorphism were more sensitive to exercise-induced parameter changes. The G allele can improve reporter gene expression level, indicating the effects of rs283 on gene expression.
