Aquaporin 5 Interacts with Fluoride and Possibly Protects against Caries

Abstract: Aquaporins (AQP) are water channel proteins and the genes coding for AQP2, AQP5, and AQP6 are clustered in 12q13. Since AQP5 is expressed in serous acinar cells of salivary glands, we investigated its involvement in caries. DNA samples from 1,383 individuals from six groups were studied. Genotypes of eight single nucleotide polymorphisms covering the aquaporin locus were tested for association with caries experience. Interaction with genes involved in enamel formation was tested. The association between enamel… Show more

“…Accordingly, several studies in humans have indicated that polymorphisms in genes involved in enamel formation [Patir et al, 2008;Kang et al, 2011;Shimizu et al, 2012;Tannure et al, 2012;Saha et al, 2015], saliva composition [Anjomshoaa et al, 2015;Sengul et al, 2016], and immune response [Bagherian et al, 2008;Azevedo et al, 2010;Valarini et al, 2012;Fine et al, 2013], including DEFB1 [Ozturk et al, 2010;Krasone et al, 2014;Yildiz et al, 2016], play a role in caries susceptibility.…”

“…In light of recent results documenting gene-by-fluoride exposure interaction effects on dental caries 26, 27 , we also tested for interaction effects with the two fluoride exposures in the samples of sufficient size for which fluoride exposure data were available (i.e., COHRA1 white adults and COHRA1 white children). These fluoride exposures were dichotomized measures of home water source fluoride (<0.7 ppm vs. ≥0.7 ppm) and tooth brushing frequency (once or more per daily vs. less often than once per day).…”

“…Furthermore, because previous studies have identified statistical interaction effects on caries between other SCPP genes and fluoride exposures 26, 27 , we also explored whether fluoride may mediate the association of SIBLINGs variants with caries.…”
