Cortical bone resorption during exercise is interleukin-6 genotype-dependent

Abstract: The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between the interleukin-6 (IL-6) -174 G>C promoter polymorphism and exercise-induced femoral cortical bone resorption. Skeletal response to exercise was assessed in 130 male Caucasian army recruits. Five cross-sectional magnetic resonance images of the right femur were obtained before and after a 10-week period of basic physical training, and changes in cross-sectional cortical area were calculated. Recruits were genotyped for the -174 G>C IL-6 promot… Show more

“…In keeping with this hypothesis, modulation by genetic variants of the skeletal response induced by strenuous exercise has previously been reported 16,17 . By expressing exon 18 alleles in the context of their haplotype in vitro, we found the T variant to be associated with a significantly decreased response to canonical Wnt3a signaling.…”

“…Nevertheless, there is some evidence that genetic variation may influence the response of muscles and the skeleton to intense physical training. 16,17 Recently, mutations in the lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) gene have been demonstrated to result in different single gene disorders with either a high or low BMD phenotype 18 . Thus in the autosomal recessive disorder, osteoporosis-pseudoglioma syndrome (OPPG), very low bone mass and blindness have been linked to loss-of-function mutations in the LRP5 gene.…”

“…However, many studies revealed that the anabolic response of bone to mechanical loading or exercise is highly variable among individuals, (37,38) and similar findings also were found among several inbred strains of mice. (39,40) These results suggest that genetic factors govern the response to mechanical loading in humans and animals.…”

“…(39,40) These results suggest that genetic factors govern the response to mechanical loading in humans and animals. Despite a few interesting loci in chromosomes found to be related to mechanosensitivity, (38,41,42) little is known about the genetic regulation of mechanical loading. Therefore, a genome-wide study would aid in understanding the anabolic response of bone to mechanical loading.…”

“…The Ϫ174 GϾC SNP in the promoter region of the IL-6 gene has gained considerable interest because it has been associated with a variety of disease states, such as Alzheimer disease, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, cancer, NIDDM, osteoporosis, sepsis, and systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). The results of the present study, which demonstrate the functionality of this SNP, highlight the results of previous association studies of major disease states.…”
