Abstract

Context: Cytokine polymorphisms and dietary fat composition may influence the risk of the metabolic syndrome (MetS).

Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between lymphotoxin-α (LTA), _TNF_-α, and IL-6 gene polymorphisms with MetS risk and investigate whether plasma fatty acid composition, a biomarker of dietary fat intake, modulated these associations.

Design: Polymorphisms (LTA rs915654, _TNF_-α rs1800629, IL-6 rs1800797), biochemical measurements, and plasma fatty acids were determined in the LIPGENE-SU.VI.MAX study of MetS cases and matched controls (n = 1754).

Results:LTA rs915654 minor A allele carriers and _TNF_-α rs1800629 major G allele homozygotes had increased MetS risk [odds ratio (OR) 1.37 (confidence interval [CI] 1.12–1.66), P = 0.002 and OR 1.35 (CI 1.08–1.70), P = 0.009] compared with their TT homozygotes and A allele carriers. Possession of the IL-6 rs1800797 GG genotype by the LTA and TNF-α risk genotype carriers further increased risk of the MetS [OR 2.10 (CI 1.19–3.71) P = 0.009], fasting hyperglycemia [OR 2.65 (CI 1.12–6.28), P = 0.027], high systolic blood pressure [OR 1.99 (CI 1.07–3.72), P = 0.03], and abdominal obesity [OR 1.52 (CI 1.01–2.28), P = 0.04]. Plasma polyunsaturated to saturated fat ratio exacerbated these effects; subjects in the lowest 50th percentile had even greater risk of the MetS [OR 4.40 (CI 1.55–12.45), P = 0.005], fasting hyperglycemia, high systolic blood pressure, and abdominal obesity (P < 0.05).

Conclusions:LTA, _TNF_-α, and IL-6 genotype interactions increased MetS risk, which was further exacerbated by a low plasma polyunsaturated to saturated fat exposure, indicating important modulation of genetic risk by dietary fat exposure.
