The alternate method such as biochemical and genetic markers for the diagnosis of osteoarthritis is an undeniable need of the current era. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the association of interleukin-6 (IL-6)(IL-6-174G\/C), transforming growth factor-\u03b21 (TGF-beta1-29C\/T), and calmodulin 1 gene-16C\/T (CALM1-16C\/T) polymorphism in clinically definite Pakistani OA patients and matching controls.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The study design was based on biochemical analysis of OA via serum hyaluronic acid (HA) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test and genetic analysis based on amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) PCR. Statistical evaluations of allele probabilities were carried through chi-squared test.

The prevalent genotypes in OA were GG genotype for IL-6-174G\/C, CT genotypes for TGF \u03b21-29C\/T, and TT genotype for CALM1-16C\/T polymorphism. A significant <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> value of 0.0152 is obtained as a result of the comparison among the patients and controls on the number of individuals possessing the disease-associated genotypes.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The positive association of GG genotype for IL-6-174G\/C, TT genotype for CALM1-16C\/T polymorphism in OA while high prevalence of CT TGF \u03b21-29 C\/T genotypes in susceptible population in our study group implies these polymorphisms can serve as susceptible marker to OA and genetic factors for screening OA patients in Pakistan. There might be other factors that may influence disease susceptibility.
