Introduction: Several studies have reported the importance of vitamin D status to musculoskeletal health in populations of older adults. Here we report relationships between circulating serum 25(OH)D and musculoskeletal health in a community cohort of UK adults in midlife and investigate whether environmental (dietary intake, use of supplements) and/or genetic factors (4 SNPs previously related to vitamin D status) play more significant roles in determining vitamin D status in this population. Methods: Participants were recruited from the Hertfordshire Cohort Study, an established longitudinal cohort study of community dwelling adults and were seen at baseline and follow up 9–12 years later. Lumbar spine and total femur BMD were measured at baseline using a Hologic QDR 4500 instrument. Osteoarthritis (OA) was defined by radiographs of the knees graded according to Kellgren & Lawrence at both time points. Serum 25(OH)D concentrations were measured using a DiaSorin Liaison chemiluminescent assay. Genotyping of 4 SNPs previously associated with 25(OH)D values were assessed: (rs12785878 (DHCR7), rs10741657 (CYP2R1) and rs6013897 (CYP24A1)) and a fourth SNP (rs4588), described as “a near-perfect proxy (i.e. substitute) for rs2282679 on the GC gene”. Results: 820 subjects (397 men, 423 women) participated at baseline, and 339 of these 820 subjects (164 men; 175 women) participated in a follow up study of OA progression. The median (IQR) age of participants at baseline was 64.0 (61.8–66.5) and 65.5 (63.3–67.6) for men and women respectively. Median circulating levels of 25(OH)D were 44.6 (35.0–63.0) nmol/L and 41.3 (29.8–53.5) nmol/L in men and women respectively. Circulating 25(OH)D was strongly associated with season of blood testing (p |
