Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis with well recognized multifactorial nature. While several environmental factors such as older age, obesity and previous joint injury are strongly associated with its development, a genetic influence on OA has been recognized for over 80 years. Identification of genes associated with OA has received considerable attention over the last two decades, aided by the rapidly evolving genotyping and sequencing technologies. More than 300 genomic loci have been identified to be associated with OA at different joints. These findings are likely to help our better understanding of the pathogenesis of OA and lead to important therapeutic and diagnostic advances in this most common disabling rheumatic disorder. This article will review the data that support the role of genetic factors in common idiopathic OA.
骨关节炎(OA)是最常见的关节炎,具有公认的多因素性质。虽然老年、肥胖和既往关节损伤等环境因素与骨关节炎的发生密切相关,但遗传因素对骨关节炎的影响早在 80 多年前就已得到公认。过去二十年来,由于基因分型和测序技术的迅速发展,与 OA 相关基因的鉴定受到了广泛关注。目前已确定 300 多个基因组位点与不同关节的 OA 相关。这些发现可能有助于我们更好地了解 OA 的发病机理,并在治疗和诊断这种最常见的致残性风湿病方面取得重要进展。本文将回顾支持遗传因素在常见特发性 OA 中的作用的数据。
期刊介绍:
Evidence-based updates of best clinical practice across the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions.
Best Practice & Research: Clinical Rheumatology keeps the clinician or trainee informed of the latest developments and current recommended practice in the rapidly advancing fields of musculoskeletal conditions and science.
The series provides a continuous update of current clinical practice. It is a topical serial publication that covers the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions in a 4-year cycle. Each topic-based issue contains around 200 pages of practical, evidence-based review articles, which integrate the results from the latest original research with current clinical practice and thinking to provide a continuous update.
Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. The review articles seek to address the clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Management is described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient. The serial is aimed at the physician in both practice and training.
