Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the P2X7 gene are associated to fracture risk and to effect of estrogen treatment

Abstract: The P2X7 Glu496Ala and the Ile568Asn single nucleotide polymorphisms are associated with 10-year fracture risk in postmenopausal women and response to hormone replacement therapy treatment. Further, the Glu496Ala polymorphism is strongly influencing osteoclast apoptosis in vitro, which could contribute to increased fracture risk.

“…As well, impaired osteoblast differentiation and bone formation may contribute to increased fracture risk. It is worth noting that the skeletal changes observed in postmenopausal women with loss-of-function polymorphisms of the P2X7 receptor [79] correspond to the phenotypic changes in the P2rx7 −/− mouse described by Ke et al [25].…”

“…Moreover, the Glu496Ala polymorphism resulted in decreased susceptibility to ATP-induced death of osteoclastlike cells derived from peripheral blood monocytes. Increased skeletal fragility in patients with loss-of-function polymorphisms in the P2X7 receptor is consistent with decreased susceptibility of osteoclasts to apoptosis [79]. As well, impaired osteoblast differentiation and bone formation may contribute to increased fracture risk.…”
