Relationship of β 3 -adrenergic receptor polymorphism with metabolic syndrome and oxidative stress parameters in postmenopausal women
2007
Introduction: Some studies indicate, that the Trp 64 /Arg 64 polymorphism of β 3 -adrenergic receptor (ADRB3) is associated
with obesity, insulin resistance and earlier onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus.The aim of our study was evaluation of frequency of this ADRB3 polymorphism and his association with metabolic syndrome
parameters and oxidative stress in postmenopausal women.
Material and methods: We performed the study among 94 women, aged 50-60, selected randomly from Wroclaw city
population. Estimation of anthropometric parameters, densitometry (total body fat, android and gynoid deposits - using
DPX(+) Lunar, USA device) and biochemical estimations such as lipid profile, glucose, insulin, estradiol and FSH serum
level (using commercial kits) were carried out. Oxidative stress was estimated by measurement of thiobarbituric-reactive
substances (TBARS) serum concentration, using Yagi method, on spectrofluorimeter Perkin-Elmer LS55. Blood for analysis
was collected before, direct after and 6 h after the 30-minutes physical test using cycloergometer. ADRB3 genotyping was
performed by PCR and minisequencing using ABI 310 sequencer (Applied Biosystems).
Results: The frequency of Trp 64 /Arg 64 genotype in investigated population was 15.8%. The Arg 64 /Arg 64 genotype had only
one woman. Women bearing Trp 64 /Arg 64 genotype showed higher mean serum level of triglycerides and lower serum level
of HDL-cholesterol in comparison to women bearing Trp 64 /Trp 64 genotype, however without statistical significance (p > 0.05)
(respectively, means ± SD for triglycerides: 140.3 ± 64.1 vs. 113.9 ± 56.2 mg/dl; and for HDL-cholesterol: 60.9 ± 11.9 vs.
67.0 ± 16.9 mg/dl). Both groups did not differ in any other investigated anthropometric nor biochemic parameter.
Conclusions: 1. The Trp 64 /Arg 64 polymorphism of β 3 -adrenergic receptor could be associated with lipid profile disoders
observed in metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women, however it should be explaned basing on the study with
more included subjects. 2. The Trp 64 /Arg 64 polymorphism of β 3 -adrenergic receptor has no influence on oxidative stress
intensification after standardized physical effort in postmenopausal women.
