Abstract
BackgroundThis study analyzed the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the mutY homolog gene (MUTYH) and the calcium release-activated calcium channel gene (ORAI1) with susceptibility to osteoarthritis in the Chinese Han population.MethodsA total of 350 patients diagnosed with osteoarthritis from October 2013 to May 2016 were selected as the study group, together with 350 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. MUTYH SNP rs3219463 and ORAI1 SNPs rs712853, rs12313273, rs6486795, rs12320939, and rs7135617 were analyzed by Sanger sequencing. Serum MUTYH levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The relationship between SNPs in MUTYH and ORAI1 and osteoarthritis susceptibility was analyzed and compared with the level of serum MUTYH in the osteoarthritis and control groups.ResultsMUTYH rs3219463 G allele carriers (GG or GA genotypes) and ORAI1 rs7135617 T allele carriers had a higher risk of osteoarthritis than patients with other genotypes. The level of serum MUTYH in the study group was significantly higher than in the control group (22.05 ± 19.14 ng/mL vs. 14.15 ± 13.54 ng/mL).ConclusionsMUTYH and ORAI1 SNPs are associated with osteoarthritis susceptibility in the Chinese Han population.
