Study of epigenetic control mechanism on skeletal muscle metabolism with total knee arthroplasty.

Not Applicable
Conditions
Osteoarthritis of the knee
Registration Number
JPRN-UMIN000026872
Lead Sponsor
Kansai Medical University Hospital Health science center
Brief Summary

Body weight (P=0.046), total weight (P=0.027), and total fat mass (P=0.028) were significantly lower 5 months postoperatively than preoperatively. Five months post-surgery, the PDK4 gene was significantly more hypomethylated at eight sites in the CpG island, compared to pre-surgery. There was a significant correlation (r=0.88, P=0.02) between promoter region hypomethylation and weight loss. Total methylation rate and weight loss were significantly correlated (r=0.829, P=0.042).
