Assessing the interaction effects of mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms and lifestyle on heel bone mineral density.
Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism 2024 March 28
BACKGROUND: Bone mineral density (BMD) is a major predictor of osteoporotic fractures, and previous studies have reported the effects of mitochondrial dysfunction and lifestyle on BMD, respectively. However, their interaction effects on BMD are still unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the possible interaction of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and common lifestyles contributing to osteoporosis.
METHODS: Our analysis included 119,120 white participants (Nfemale=65,949 and Nmale=53,171) from the UK Biobank with heel BMD phenotype data. A generalized linear regression model of PLINK was performed to assess the interaction effects of mtDNA and five life environmental factors on heel BMD, including smoking, drinking, physical activity, dietary diversity score, and vitamin D. In addition, we also performed linear regression analysis for total body BMD. Finally, we assessed the potential causal relationships between mtDNA copy number (mtDNA-CN) and life environmental factors using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
RESULTS: Our study identified four mtDNA loci showing suggestive evidence of heel BMD, such as m.16356T>C (MT-DLOOP; P =1.50×10-3) in total samples. Multiple candidate mtDNA×lifetsyle interactions were also detected for heel BMD, such as MT-ND2×physical activity (P = 2.88×10-3) in total samples and MT-ND1×smoking (P = 8.54×10-4) in males. Notably, MT-CYB was a common candidate mtDNA loci for heel BMD to interact with five life environmental factors. Multivariable MR analysis indicated a causal effect of physical activity on heel BMD when mtDNA-CN was considered (P =1.13×10-3).
CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests the candidate interaction between mitochondria and lifestyles on heel BMD, providing novel clues for exploring the pathogenesis of osteoporosis.
