Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the interaction of SMAD3 polymorphisms (rs12102171 and rs2289263) with body mass index (BMI) and osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility. Methods: This study involved 112 OA patients and 120 healthy people. The controls were frequency-matched with the cases by age and sex. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) was tested by X-2 test in the control group. The rs12102171 and rs2289263 polymorphisms were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. The relative risk of OA was represented by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) calculated by chi-squared test. Gene-environment interaction was analyzed by crossover analysis. Results: The TT genotype and T allele of SMAD3 rs12102171 polymorphism were more frequent in case than control groups (P=0.04 in both of two polymorphisms), which increased the risk of OA (OR=3.39, 95% CI=1.03-11.11 and OR=1.64, 95% CI=1.03-2.59). GG genotype and G allele were also the risk factors for OA (OR=3.22, 95% CI=1.09-9.51 and OR=1.57, 95% CI=1.02-2.42). The BMI had interactions with genotype CC and CT+TT of rs12102171 and TT and TG+GG of rs2289263 (rs12102171: OR=2.15, P=0.02 and OR=3.99, P=1.00x10(-3); rs2289263: OR=2.73, P=4.00x10(-3) and OR=4.67, P=0). Conclusions: CC and CT+TT and TT and TG+GG genotypes of SMAD3 rs12102171 and rs2289263 polymorphisms together with BMI may be susceptible factors to OA, and interactions there between can possibly confer risk to OA.
