Assessment of Osteoarthritis Candidate Genes in a Meta‐Analysis of Nine Genome‐Wide Association Studies

Abstract: ObjectiveTo assess candidate genes for association with osteoarthritis (OA) and identify promising genetic factors and, secondarily, to assess the candidate gene approach in OA.MethodsA total of 199 candidate genes for association with OA were identified using Human Genome Epidemiology (HuGE) Navigator. All of their single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with an allele frequency of >5% were assessed by fixed-effects meta-analysis of 9 genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that included 5,636 patients with kne… Show more

“…Other selected genes included those previously described as being associated with OA 3, 22 (see also Supplementary Table 4, available on the Arthritis & Rheumatology web site at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/art.39622/abstract). MSCs derived from trabecular bone from age‐matched controls as well as MSCs derived from the femoral heads of patients with OP were included as controls.…”

“…A recent meta-analysis of nine genome-wide association studies including 5636 knee OA patients and 16,972 controls, found that only 2 out of 199 published candidate OA genes had any significant association with OA 7 . The inconsistency may be due to different study designs 7 , inherent measurement error associated with diagnosis of ROA, short followup periods and varying levels of genetic susceptibility of different phenotypic components of knee OA 8,9 . Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is being increasingly used to study OA as it allows visualisation of the whole joint 10 . It is possible that different structures comprising the knee joint are under separate genetic influences.…”

“…As a result, there is the potential for development of new therapeutic approaches to target factors involved in inflammation, oxidative stress, and autophagy, to name a few (9). In addition to altered cellular and molecular pathways, a number of gene polymorphisms have been reported in human OA (e.g., GDF5 and SMAD3) (10,11) and there are now several, robustly replicated, significant OA loci that have been identified by large-scale genome wide association studies (GWAS) (12)(13)(14). However, many candidate gene studies for OA have identified false associations due to relatively small sample sizes.…”
