Elevated triglyceride (TG) and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations are common in obesity.

Diet alone does not produce metabolic disease, and genetic variation can increase dyslipidemia risk. Nutrigenetics is a body of research investigating dietary and genetic interactions, but less research exists in non-European populations and individuals with obesity. Our objective was to explore dietary and genetic factors associated with dyslipidemia in populations at risk for metabolic disease. Methods: Meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT) was conducted investigating SFA-UFA replacement on total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, and TG concentrations. Genetic contributions to dyslipidemia in Mexicans were explored through creation of a genetic risk score (GRS) from SNPs associated with dyslipidemia. Nutrigenetic interactions were explored in adults with obesity enrolled in a clinical trial, who were randomized to receive a meal with or without an avocado for 12 weeks. Interactions among dietary fat intake, genotype, and blood lipid concentrations were determined pre- and post-intervention. Results: In a meta-analysis of 8 RCT, SFA-UFA replacement on TC concentrations approached significance (P=0.06) in favor of UFA intake. GRS was significantly associated with TG and HDL-C. Among adults enrolled in the clinical trial, dietary fat intake and genotype interactively impacted TC and HDL-C concentrations at baseline. Following dietary intervention, several gene-diet interactions were associated with changes in TC and HDL-C. The glucokinase regulator rs1260326 SNP was associated with TC changes, by which individuals in the avocado group experienced differential changes by presence or absence of the risk allele. Conclusions: SFA-UFA replacement may not be effective in adults with obesity, yet remains a key recommendation in dietary guidelines. Cumulative genetic risk affects HDL-C and TG in the Mexican population, who experience increased dyslipidemia prevalence but remain underrepresented in genetic research.
