- Abstract
Primary osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex entity in which several loci related to different molecular pathways or classes of molecules are associated with its development as demonstrated through genetic association studies. Genes involved in bone formation and mineralization, such as osteopontin (OPN) and Matrix Gla protein (MGP), could also be related with OA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the genetic variants of OPN and MGP with primary knee osteoarthritis in a Mexican population. A case-control study was conducted in 296 patients with primary knee osteoarthritis and in 354 control subjects. Study groups were assessed radiologically. The rs11730582 of OPN and rs1800802, rs1800801, and rs4236 of MGP were determined by TaqMan allele discrimination assays. The haplotypes of the polymorphisms of MGP were constructed. The association was tested through univariate and multivariate non-conditional logistic regression analyses. The polymorphisms of MGP complied with Hardy-Weinberg (HW) equilibrium. The polymorphisms of OPN and MGP were not significantly associated with primary knee osteoarthritis in the codominant, dominant, and recessive models (p > 0.05). Our study suggests that there are no associations between OPN and MGP polymorphisms with primary knee osteoarthritis in Mexican population.
