The objective of ourstudy was to evaluate the role of this variant of GHSR gene on body weight loss and cardiovascular risk factorssecondary to a partial meal replacement (pMR) hypocaloric diet.Methods: 96 individuals with a body mass index (BMI > 35 kg/m2) were enrolled. Participants consumed anormocaloric, hyperproteic formula twice daily (12-w). Measurements were taken for body weight, BMI, fatmass, waist circumference, blood pressure, lipid profile, fasting insulin levels and HOMA-IR.Results: The genotype was 70 patients (72.9 %) CC genotype, 19 patients(19.8 %) CG genotype, and 7 patients(7.3 %) GG genotype. The intake of calories, grams of carbohydrates, fats and proteins was higher at 12w inpatients carrying the G allele. BMI ( 3.5 ± 0.4 kg/m2 vs 1.0 ± 0.2 kg/m2 (p = 0.01)), body weight ( 8.5 ±1.0 kg vs 2.6 ± 1.1 kg (p = 0.01)), fat mass ( 7.7 ± 0.3 kg vs 2.6 ± 0.2 kg (p = 0.01)), waist circumference( 7.2 ± 0.3 cm vs 2.9 ± 0.1 cm (p = 0.01)), glucose levels ( 12.1 ± 1.4 mg/dl vs 3.1 ± 1.8 mg/dl, p = 0.01),insulin ( 10.8 ± 1.2 UI/L vs 3.9 ± 1.1 UI/L, p = 0.01), HOMA-IR ( 2.1 ± 1.0 units vs 0.58 ± 0.2 units, p =0.01), CRP ( 1.2 ± 0.1 mg/dl vs 0.7 ± 0.2 mg/dl, p = 0.01), triglycerides ( 22.1 ± 4.1 mg/dl vs 5.1 ± 3.2mg/dl, p = 0.01), total-cholesterol ( 22.2 ± 1.3 mg/dl vs 8.8 ± 1.9 mg/dl, p = 0.01), LDL-cholesterol ( 15.2± 1.1 mg/dl vs 4.7 ± 1.2 mg/dl, p = 0.01), and HDL-cholesterol (6.2 ± 0.4 mg/dl vs 2.9 ± 1.2 mg/dl, p =0.01) modifications were better in non-G allele carriers. After intervention, the odds ratio (OR) of MS in non-carrier of G allele improved OR 0.48 (95%CI: 0.31–0.73; p = 0.02).Conclusions: G allele of rs490683 have a deleterious effect on dietary restrictions, body weight and metabolicresponse after a pMR diet.
