Common diseases often have an inflammatory component reflected by associated markers such as serum CRP levels. Circulating CRP levels have also been associated with adipose tissue as well as with specific CRP genotypes. We examined the interaction between measures of BMI, waist circumference and fat % (total fat measured by bioimpedance) with genotypes of the CRP gene in the determination of CRP levels. The first 2296 participants (mean age 76±6 years, 42% men) in the AGES-Reykjavik Study, a multi-disciplinary epidemiological study to determine risk factors in aging, were genotyped for 10 SNPs in the CRP gene. General linear models with age and terms for interaction of CRP genotypes with BMI, waist circumference, and percent fat were used to evaluate the association of genotypes to CRP levels (high sensitivity method, range 0- 10 mg/L) in men and women separately. We focused on the SNP rs1205 which represents the allele that captures the strongest effects of the gene on CRP levels. Carriers of the rs1205 G allele had significantly higher CRP levels than non-carriers in a dose-dependent manner, The slope of the increase in CRP with increasing BMI (p=0.045) and waist circumference (p=0.014) was lower for AA homozygous men but did not reach statistical significance in women. The rs1205 interactions were not significant for total body fat suggesting an association with fat localization. The rs1205 SNP in the CRP gene is associated with circulating CRP levels in a manner dependent on BMI and waist circumference in men. This suggests an influence of fat distribution on the production of low grade inflammatory markers.
