EPAS1 gene variants are associated with sprint/power athletic performance in two cohorts of European athletes

Abstract: BackgroundThe endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1) activates genes that are involved in erythropoiesis and angiogenesis, thus favoring a better delivery of oxygen to the tissues and is a plausible candidate to influence athletic performance. Using innovative statistical methods we compared genotype distributions and interactions of EPAS1 SNPs rs1867785, rs11689011, rs895436, rs4035887 and rs1867782 between sprint/power athletes (n = 338), endurance athletes (n = 254), and controls (603) in Polish and Russi… Show more

“…The frequencies of the G (rs1867785 A/G) and T (rs11689011 C/T) alleles located within the large intron 1 of the EPAS1 gene tended to be higher in short (event duration no less than 50 s), middle (from 50 s to 10 min), and long (from $2 to 10 h) distance Australian endurance athletes (in order of increasing frequency: 127 Ironmen triathletes, 58 cyclists, 24 Olympic distance triathletes, 172 rowers, 42 swimmers (100-800 m), and 28 middle-distance runners) in comparison with 444 controls. In the second study of 338 sprint/power athletes, 254 endurance athletes, and 603 controls from Poland and Russia, Voisin et al [88] found that the rs1867785 AA and rs11689011 TT genotypes were underrepresented in the sprint/power athletes, but the allelic frequencies of these two polymorphisms were not different between endurance athletes and controls.…”

“…Однако индивидуальные генетические особенности, обусловливающие адаптацию к гипоксиче-ским воздействиям, могут в значительной мере способ-ствовать достижению лучших спортивных результатов (Henderson et al, 2005;Voisin et al, 2014). Одним из перспективных молекулярногенетических маркеров, участвующих в процессе адаптации организма к гипокси-ческим условиям, является G/Aполиморфизм гена EPAS1.…”

“…Однако полученные авторами результаты противоречат друг другу. Так, на примере русских спортсменов показано снижение частоты генотипа АА в группе спортсменов, выступающих в видах спорта, требующих преимущественного развития скорост-носиловых качеств (Voisin et al, 2014). В то же время уве-личение частоты встречаемости Gаллеля было отмечено в группе австралийских спортсменовстайеров (Henderson et al, 2005).…”
