Association of variants in NEDD4L with blood pressure response and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in hypertensive patients treated with thiazide diuretics.

ABSTRACT: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in NEDD4L may influence the ability of the NEDD4L protein to reduce epithelial sodium channel expression. A variant in NEDD4L, rs4149601, was associated with antihypertensive response and cardiovascular outcomes during treatment with thiazide diuretics and ?-blockers in a Swedish population. We sought to further evaluate associations between NEDD4L polymorphisms, blood pressure response and cardiovascular outcomes with thiazide diuretics and ?-blockers.Four SNPs, rs4149601, rs292449, rs1008899 and rs75982813, were genotyped in 767 patients from the Pharmacogenomic Evaluation of Antihypertensive Responses (PEAR) clinical trial and association was assessed with blood pressure response to hydrochlorothiazide and atenolol. One SNP, rs4149601, was also genotyped in 1345 patients from the International Verapmil SR Trandolapril Study (INVEST), and association was examined with adverse cardiovascular outcomes relative to hydrochlorothiazide treatment.Significant associations or trends were found between rs4149601, rs292449, rs75982813 and rs1008899 and decreases in blood pressure in whites on hydrochlorothiazide, and a significant association was observed with increasing copies of the GC rs4149601-rs292449 haplotype and greater blood pressure response to hydrochlorothiazide in whites (P = 0.0006 and 0.006, SBP and DBP, respectively). Significant associations were also seen with rs4149601 and an increased risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in whites not treated with hydrochlorothiazide [P = 0.022, odds ratio (95% confidence interval) = 10.65 (1.18-96.25)].NEDD4L rs4149601, rs292449 and rs75982813 may be predictors for blood pressure response to hydrochlorothiazide in whites, and NEDD4L rs4149601 may be a predictor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes in whites not treated with hydrochlorothiazide.

<h4>Objective</h4>Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in NEDD4L may influence the ability of the NEDD4L protein to reduce epithelial sodium channel expression. A variant in NEDD4L, rs4149601, was associated with antihypertensive response and cardiovascular outcomes during treatment with thiazide diuretics and β-blockers in a Swedish population. We sought to further evaluate associations between NEDD4L polymorphisms, blood pressure response and cardiovascular outcomes with thiazide diuretics a ...[more]

Project description:Chlorthalidone (CTD) is more potent than hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in reducing blood pressure (BP) in hypertensive patients, though both are plagued with BP response variability. However, there is a void in the literature regarding the genetic determinants contributing to the variability observed in BP response to CTD. We performed a discovery genome wide association analysis of BP response post CTD treatment in African Americans (AA) and European Americans (EA) from the Pharmacogenomic Evaluation of Antihypertensive Responses-2 (PEAR-2) study and replication in an independent cohort of AA and EA treated with HCTZ from the PEAR study, followed by a race specific meta-analysis of the two studies. Successfully replicated SNPs were further validated in beta-blocker treated participants from PEAR-2 and PEAR for opposite direction of association. The replicated and validated signals were further evaluated by protein-protein interaction network analysis. An intronic SNP rs79237970 in the WDR92 (eQTL for PPP3R1) was significantly associated with better DBP response to CTD (p?=?5.76?×?10-6, ??=?-15.75) in the AA cohort. This SNP further replicated in PEAR (p?=?0.00046, ??=?-9.815) with a genome wide significant meta-analysis p-value of 8.49?×?10-9. This variant was further validated for opposite association in two ?-blockers treated cohorts from PEAR-2 metoprolol (p?=?9.9?×?10-3, ??=?7.47) and PEAR atenolol (p?=?0.04, ??=?4.36) for association with DBP. Studies have implicated WDR92 in coronary artery damage. PPP3R1 is the regulatory subunit of the calcineurin complex. Use of calcineurin inhibitors is associated with HTN. Studies have also shown polymorphisms in PPP3R1 to be associated with ventricular hypertrophy in AA hypertensive patients. Protein-protein interaction analysis further identified important hypertension related pathways such as inositol phosphate-mediated signaling and calcineurin-NFAT signaling cascade as important biological process associated with PPP3R1 which further strengthen the potential importance of this signal. These data collectively suggest that WDR92 and PPP3R1 are novel candidates that may help explain the genetic underpinnings of BP response of thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics and help identify the patients better suited for thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics compared to ?-blockers for improved BP management. This may further help advance personalized approaches to antihypertensive therapy.

Project description:Thiazide diuretics are among the most commonly prescribed antihypertensives. However, <50% of thiazide-treated patients achieve blood pressure (BP) control. Herein, we used different omics (genomics and transcriptomics) to identify novel biomarkers of thiazide diuretics BP response. Genome-wide analysis included 228 white hypertensives with BP determined at baseline and after 9 weeks of hydrochlorothiazide. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms with P <5×10-5 were prioritized according to their biological function, using RegulomeDB, haploreg, and Genome-Wide Annotation of Variants. The results from the prioritization approach revealed rs10995 as the most likely functional single-nucleotide polymorphism, among single-nucleotide polymorphisms tested, that has been associated with hydrochlorothiazide BP response. The rs10995 G-allele was associated with better BP response to hydrochlorothiazide versus noncarriers (Δ systolic BP/Δ diastolic BP: -12.3/-8.2 versus -6.8/-3.5 mm Hg, respectively, Δ systolic BP P=3×10-4, Δ diastolic BP P=5×10-5). This association was replicated in independent participants treated with chlorthalidone. In addition, rs10995 G-allele was associated with increased mRNA expression of VASP (vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein). Moreover, baseline expression of the VASP mRNA was significantly higher in 25 good responders to hydrochlorothiazide compared with 25 poor responders (P=0.01). This finding was replicated in independent participants treated with chlorthalidone (P=0.04). Last, allelic-specific expression analysis revealed a significant but modest imbalance with rs10995 and rs10156, a single-nucleotide polymorphism in high linkage disequilibrium (r2=0.7) with rs10995, which both could contribute to the observed genetic effects by affecting VASP mRNA expression. This study highlights the strength of using different omics to identify novel biomarkers of drug response and suggests VASP as a potential determinant of thiazide diuretics BP response.
