Regionally clustered ABCC8 polymorphisms in a prospective cohort predict cerebral oedema and outcome in severe traumatic brain injury.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:ABCC8 encodes sulfonylurea receptor 1, a key regulatory protein of cerebral oedema in many neurological disorders including traumatic brain injury (TBI). Sulfonylurea-receptor-1 inhibition has been promising in ameliorating cerebral oedema in clinical trials. We evaluated whether ABCC8 tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms predicted oedema and outcome in TBI. METHODS:DNA was extracted from 485 prospectively enrolled patients with severe TBI. 410 were analysed after quality control. ABCC8 tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified (Hapmap, r2>0.8, minor-allele frequency >0.20) and sequenced (iPlex-Gold, MassArray). Outcomes included radiographic oedema, intracranial pressure (ICP) and 3-month Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score. Proxy SNPs, spatial modelling, amino acid topology and functional predictions were determined using established software programs. RESULTS:Wild-type rs7105832 and rs2237982 alleles and genotypes were associated with lower average ICP (?=-2.91, p=0.001; ?=-2.28, p=0.003) and decreased radiographic oedema (OR 0.42, p=0.012; OR 0.52, p=0.017). Wild-type rs2237982 also increased favourable 3-month GOS (OR 2.45, p=0.006); this was partially mediated by oedema (p=0.03). Different polymorphisms predicted 3-month outcome: variant rs11024286 increased (OR 1.84, p=0.006) and wild-type rs4148622 decreased (OR 0.40, p=0.01) the odds of favourable outcome. Significant tag and concordant proxy SNPs regionally span introns/exons 2-15 of the 39-exon gene. CONCLUSIONS:This study identifies four ABCC8 tag SNPs associated with cerebral oedema and/or outcome in TBI, tagging a region including 33 polymorphisms. In polymorphisms predictive of oedema, variant alleles/genotypes confer increased risk. Different variant polymorphisms were associated with favourable outcome, potentially suggesting distinct mechanisms. Significant polymorphisms spatially clustered flanking exons encoding the sulfonylurea receptor site and transmembrane domain 0/loop 0 (juxtaposing the channel pore/binding site). This, if validated, may help build a foundation for developing future strategies that may guide individualised care, treatment response, prognosis and patient selection for clinical trials.

Project description:Sulfonylurea-receptor-1(SUR1) and its associated transient-receptor-potential cation channel subfamily-M (TRPM4) channel are key contributors to cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and other neurological disorders. Channel inhibition by glyburide is clinically promising. ABCC8 (encoding SUR1) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are reported as predictors of raised intracranial pressure (ICP). This project evaluated whether TRPM4 SNPs predicted ICP and TBI outcome. DNA was extracted from 435 consecutively enrolled severe TBI patients. Without a priori selection, all 11 TRPM4 SNPs available on the multiplex platform (Illumina:Human-Core-Exome v1.0) were genotyped spanning the 25 exon gene. A total of 385 patients were analyzed after quality control. Outcomes included ICP and 6 month Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score. Proxy SNPs, spatial modeling, and functional predictions were determined using established software programs. rs8104571 (intron-20) and rs150391806 (exon-24) were predictors of ICP. rs8104571 heterozygotes predicted higher average ICP (β = 10.3 mm Hg, p = 0.00000029), peak ICP (β = 19.6 mm Hg, p = 0.0007), and proportion ICP >25 mm Hg (β = 0.16 p = 0.004). rs150391806 heterozygotes had higher mean (β = 7.2 mm Hg, p = 0.042) and peak (β = 28.9 mm Hg, p = 0.0015) ICPs. rs8104571, rs150391806, and 34 associated proxy SNPs in linkage-disequilibrium clustered downstream. This region encodes TRPM4's channel pore and a region postulated to juxtapose SUR1 sequences encoded by an ABCC8 DNA segment containing previously identified relevant SNPs. There was an interaction effect on ICP between rs8104571 and a cluster of predictive ABCC8 SNPs (rs2237982, rs2283261, rs11024286). Although not significant in univariable or a basic multivariable model, in an expanded model additionally accounting for injury pattern, computed tomographic (CT) appearance, and intracranial hypertension, heterozygous rs8104571 was associated with favorable 6 month GOS (odds ratio [OR] = 16.7, p = 0.007951). This trend persisted in a survivor-only subcohort (OR = 20.67, p = 0.0168). In this cohort, two TRPM4 SNPs predicted increased ICP with large effect sizes. Both clustered downstream, spanning a region encoding the channel pore and interacting with SUR1. If validated, this may guide risk stratification and eventually inform treatment-responder classification for SUR1-TRPM4 inhibition in TBI. Larger studies are warranted.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients of older age with comorbidities, who are pre-injury treated with antithrombotic agents (antiplatelets and/or anticoagulants), has increased. In this study, our aim was to investigate if pre-injury antithrombotic treatment was associated with worse intracranial hemorrhagic/injury progression and clinical outcome in patients with severe TBI.MethodsIn this retrospective study, including 844 TBI patients treated at our neurointensive care at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden, 2008-2018, 159 (19%) were pre-injury treated with antithrombotic agents. Demography, admission status, radiology, treatment, and outcome variables were evaluated. Significant intracranial hemorrhagic/injury evolution was defined as hemorrhagic progression seen on the second computed tomography (CT), emergency neurosurgery after the initial CT, or death following the initial CT.ResultsPatients with pre-injury antithrombotics were significantly older and with a higher Charlson comorbidity index. They were more often injured by falls and more frequently developed acute subdural hematomas. Sixty-eight (8%) patients were pre-injury treated with monotherapy of antiplatelets, 67 (8%) patients with anticoagulants, and 24 (3%) patients with a combination of antithrombotics. Pre-injury anticoagulants, but not antiplatelets, were independently associated with significant intracranial hemorrhagic/injury evolution in a multiple regression analysis. However, neither anticoagulants nor antiplatelets were associated with mortality and unfavorable outcome in multiple regression analyses.ConclusionsOnly anticoagulants were associated with intracranial hemorrhagic/injury progression, but no antithrombotic agent correlated with worse clinical outcome. Management, including early anticoagulant reversal, availability of emergency neurosurgery, and neurointensive care, may be important aspects for reducing the adverse effects of pre-injury antithrombotics.
