Association of LRP5 Ala1330Val polymorphism with fracture risk: a meta-analysis

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Numerous studies have evaluated the association between the Ala1330Val polymorphism of the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins 5 (LRP5) gene and fracture risk. However, the specific association is still controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate their correlation via metaanalysis. and EMBASE databases were searched, and data were extracted independently by two reviewers. Odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of … Show more

“…Another key finding is the high prevalence of variants in LRP5 , a main co‐receptor that triggers the Wnt pathway and osteoblast activity. Several studies and a meta‐analysis failed to show an association between fractures or low BMD and the p.Ala1330Val polymorphism, so this polymorphism is not considered a risk factor for low BMD or fracture . The frequency of 14.5% of the variation in our cohort is lower than the 22% previously reported in white population‐based cohorts with ExAc.…”

“…LRP5 encodes a transmembrane protein in the WNT signaling pathway and regulates bone mass in humans and mice [40]. Several studies have shown that LRP5 polymorphisms are a determining factor of bone mass [41].…”

“…The most unexpected result obtained in our study is the absence of statistically significant association of the genetic marker LRP5 rs3736228 with the response to BPs treatment. Studies on various populations have shown that this missense substitution is associated with both the risk of developing osteoporosis [13,31] and with the effectiveness of its antiresorptive therapy with BPs [32]. It is located in exon 18 of LRP5 gene and leads to alanine substitution by valine (p.Ala1330Val) in the extracellular region of LPR5, responsible for mediating the interactions of LRP5 and its ligands.…”
