The remaining 326 women had no signs of joint disease and formed the control group. All examined women were tested using real-time polymerase chain reaction for single nucleotide polymorphisms rs3134069, rs4355801 and rs3102735 in the <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene.</p> <p><bold>Results.</bold> It was found that genotypes distribution of polymorphisms rs3134069, rs4355801 and rs3102735 in the <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene in the total group of examined women (n = 483) corresponded to the Hardy – Weinberg law (p &gt; 0.05). The analysis of the polymorphic variants’ frequency in the <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene revealed an increased frequency of AC or CC genotypes of rs3134069 polymorphism in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OR = 1.91; 95% CI: 1.10–3.32; p = 0.030). Also, the allele C frequency of the above-mentioned polymorphism was increased among patients with osteoarthritis (OR = 1.78; 95% CI: 1.06–2.99; p = 0.040). No association with knee osteoarthritis was found for two other studied polymorphisms in the <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene – rs4355801 and rs3102735 (p &gt; 0.05).</p> <p><bold>Conclusion.</bold> The increased frequency of genotypes AC or CC registration, as well as allele C of rs3134069 polymorphism in the <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene in postmenopausal women with knee osteoarthritis indicates the important role of <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> gene mutations in the osteoarthritis development and progression. Further research in this area is of great interest both for a deeper understanding of the disease pathogenesis and for the development of personalized approach in the prevention and treatment of knee osteoarthritis in postmenopausal women.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold>Цель</bold> – исследовать ассоциации полиморфизмов rs3134069, rs4355801 и rs3102735 гена <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> с остеоартритом коленных суставов у женщин постменопаузального возраста.</p> <p><bold>Материал и методы.</bold> Обследовано 483 женщины постменопаузального возраста. Из них 157 пациентов имели остеоартрит коленных суставов. Остальные 326 женщин не имели признаков заболевания суставов и составили контрольную группу. Все обследованные женщины при помощи метода полимеразной цепной реакции в режиме реального времени были обследованы на однонуклеотидные полиморфизмы rs3134069, rs4355801 и rs3102735 гена <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic>.</p> <p><bold>Результаты. </bold>Установлено, что распределение генотипов полиморфизмов rs3134069, rs4355801 и rs3102735 гена <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> в общей группе обследованных женщин (n=483) соответствовало закону Hardy – Weinberg (р&gt;0,05). Анализ частоты полиморфных вариантов гена <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> позволил выявить повышенную частоту генотипов АС или СС полиморфизма rs3134069 у больных с остеоартритом коленных суставов (OR=1,91; 95% CI: 1,10–3,32; р=0,030). Также среди больных ОА была увеличена частота регистрации аллеля С вышеуказанного полиморфизма (OR=1,78; 95% CI: 1,06–2,99; р=0,040). Для двух других исследованных полиморфизмов гена <italic>TNFRSF11B </italic>(rs4355801 и rs3102735) связи с остеоартритом коленных суставов обнаружено не было (p&gt;0,05).</p> <p><bold>Заключение. </bold>Повышенная частота регистрации генотипов АС или СС, а также аллеля С полиморфизма rs3134069 гена <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> при остео-артрите коленных суставов у женщин постменопаузального возраста свидетельствует о важной роли мутаций в гене <italic>TNFRSF11B</italic> в развитии и прогрессировании остеоартрита. Дальнейшие исследования в этом направлении представляют большой интерес как для более глубокого понимания патогенеза заболевания, так и для разработки критериев персонифицированного похода в профилактике и лечении остеоартрита коленных суставов у женщин постменопаузального возраста.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>women</kwd><kwd>postmenopause</kwd><kwd>osteoarthritis</kwd><kwd>polymorphisms</kwd><kwd>osteoprotegerin gene</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>женщины</kwd><kwd>постменопауза</kwd><kwd>остеоартрит</kwd><kwd>полиморфизмы</kwd><kwd>ген остеопротегерина</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Aleshkevich AI, Martusevich NA, Bondar TV.
