ABSTRACT: Objective
The present study aims to observe the influence of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ADRB1 gene on individual differences in pain sensitivity.Methods
We analyzed the associations between pain sensitivity and ADRB1 gene SNPs (A145 G and G1165 C) in 324 Chinese patients who underwent surgery. The genotyping was performed using PCR-RFLP technique.Results
The patients who carried the A-allele of the A145 G SNP were more sensitive to cold pressor-induced pain than those who did not carry this allele (P < 0.05). We did not found G1165 C polymorphism associated with pain sensitive in the present study. The haplotype analysis revealed A-C haplotype carriers have reduced fentanyl use in 24-h postoperative (P < 0.05).Conclusion
ADRB1 gene polymorphisms are associated with pain and analgesic sensitivity.
