ABSTRACT
The aim of the present study was to investigate the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the PDZ and LIM domain protein 4 (PDLIM4) gene and susceptibility to osteoporotic fracture in an elderly Han Chinese population. Seven SNPs of PDLIM4, including rs77584624, rs78418541, rs270611, rs3900945, rs77486529, rs71583465, and rs366512, were examined in 540 elderly Chinese patients with osteoporotic fractures (case group) and 540 healthy Chinese subjects (control group) using Sanger sequencing. A-allele carriers of rs270611 in PDLIM4 had a significantly high risk of osteoporotic fracture (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.34; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24-1.46; P<0.001). Similarly, individuals carrying the C-allele at PDLIM4 rs3900945 were predisposed to osteoporotic fracture (adjusted OR = 1.45; 95% CI 1.05-1.25; P<0.001). In contrast, the T-allele at rs366512 appeared to be a protective genetic factor against osteoporotic fracture (adjusted OR = 0.84; 95% CI 0.74-0.95; P<0.01). Consistently, the serum levels of N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PINP) and C-telopeptide fragments of Collagen type I α1 chains (ß-CTx) were higher in A-allele carriers of rs270611 and C-allele carriers of rs3900945, while T-allele carriers of rs366512 had lower PINP and ß-CTx levels. Corresponding well with published findings, the A-allele of rs270611 and C-allele of rs3900945 were associated with reduced bone marrow density (BMD) at the fracture site, while T-allele carriers of rs366512 were shown to have normal BMD. Our study provides supportive evidence for the contribution of PDLIM4 gene polymorphisms to the susceptibility to osteoporotic fracture and suggests that rs270611 and rs3900945 are genetic risk factors, while rs366512 might be a genetic protective factor against osteoporotic fracture in elderly Han individuals.
