Abstract:
:Obese individuals can be categorized as "healthy obese" (MHO) and "unhealthy obese" (MUO) based on the presence or absence of metabolic abnormality. This study sets out to assess potential genetic causes behind persistence of healthy metabolic status in individuals categorized as "healthy obese". This study was conducted in the framework of the Tehran cardio-metabolic genetic study (TCGS). 766 MHO subjects at the start of the study followed up 15 years for occurrence of metabolic unhealthy status. These two groups (persistent MHO, MUO) were compared regarding the presence or absence of 16 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified as being associated with obesity phenotype in previous studies. We used logistic regression model for assessing the association between MHO/MUO with candidate SNPs. By the end of the follow up, 206 (27%) were categorized as the persistent MHO and 560 (73%) as MUO groups. Considering interaction effect between some SNP and sex, a sex stratification analysis was applied. When the analysis was performed by gender, rs1121980 associated with a decrease, and rs7903146 with an increase in the likelihood of persistent MHO individuals. Another analysis was separately performed on postmenopausal women from both groups; it showed that rs13107325 was associated with an increase in the likelihood of persistent MHO status in this subgroup of woman. In all cases, the markers had dominant inheritance. This findings suggest that the expression of some genetic markers are associated with persistence of healthy metabolic status, in female obese individuals.
