Genetic markers of lipid metabolism genes associated with low susceptibility to HCV infection.

ABSTRACT: Due to the relation between lipids and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) life-cycle, we aimed to explore the existence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with low susceptibility to HCV-infection within lipid metabolism genes. This was a case-control study in three phases: (I) allelic frequencies of 9 SNPs within 6 genes were compared in 404 HCV-infected patients and 801 population controls; (II) results were validated in 602 HCV-infected individuals and 1352 controls; (III) results were confirmed in 30 HCV-exposed uninfected (EU) individuals. In phase I, only the LDLRAP1-rs4075184-A allele was differentially distributed in patients and controls (358 of 808 alleles [44.3%] and 807 of 1602 alleles [50.3%], respectively) (p?=?0.004). In phase II, the A allele frequency was 547 of 1204 alleles (45.4%) in patients and 1326 of 2704 alleles (49.0%) in controls (p?=?0.037). This frequency in EU was 36 of 60 alleles (60%), which was higher than that observed in patients from phase I (p?=?0.018) and phase II (p?=?0.027). The LDLRAP1-mRNA expression was lower in AA carriers than in non-AA carriers (median [Q1-Q3]: 0.85 [0.17-1.75] relative-units [ru] versus 1.71 [1.00-2.73] ru; p?=?0.041). Our results suggest that LDLRAP1-rs4075184-A allele is associated with lower susceptibility to HCV-infection and with reduced expression of LDLRAP1-mRNA.

Project description:BACKGROUND:CD40, encoded by TNFRSF5, participates in the survival of B cells, process of antigen presentation and generation of CD8+ T cell memory. It also has an important effect on HCV antiviral immune response. This study aims to investigate whether TNFRSF5 gene polymorphisms are associated with HCV infection outcomes among Chinese population. METHODS:Three single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) (rs1535045, rs1883832, rs4810485) on TNFRSF5 were genotyped by TaqMan assay among Chinese population, including 1513 uninfected subjects, 496 spontaneous viral clearance subjects and 768 persistent HCV-infected subjects. Logistic analysis was used to compare these SNPs among different groups in this cross-sectional study. Functional annotations of the identified SNPs were further evaluated by bioinformatics analysis. RESULTS:After adjusted by age, gender and routes of infection, the results of logistic analysis indicated that individuals carrying rs1535045 T allele had a higher risk to infect HCV compared with C allele (in recessive model, adjusted OR?=?1.368, 95%CI?=?1.070-1.749, P?=?0.012). Subjects carried rs1535045 TT genotype were more likely to infect HCV than wild CC genotype (adjusted OR?=?1.397, 95%CI?=?1.078-1.809, P?=?0.011). For rs1883832, T allele was significantly associated with an increased risk of HCV infection (in recessive model, adjusted OR?=?1.337, 95%CI?=?1.069-1.673, P?=?0.011). Subjects with TT genotype had more possibility to infect HCV (adjusted OR?=?1.351, 95%CI?=?1.060-1.702, P?=?0.015). In the stratified analysis, rs1535045 and rs1883832 were remained in various subgroups and the heterogeneity test showed no pronounced heterogeneity in any pairwise comparison (all P?>?0.05). In addition, the results of the cumulative effects showed a tendency of that the more risk alleles (rs1535045 T and rs1883832 T) subjects carried, the more possibility of HCV infection exhibited (P<0.001). In haplotype analyses, compared with the CC haplotype, CT, TC and TT was correlated with an increased risk to infect HCV (P?=?0.029, P?=?0.047 and P<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS:In conclusion, CD40 polymorphisms were significantly associated with the susceptibility to HCV among Chinese populations.

Project description:In lung cancer (LC), alterations in redox balance are extensively observed and are a consequence of disease as well as co-occurrent with smoking. We previously demonstrated that metabolic disturbances such as trace element status and carbohydrate metabolism alterations are linked with redox status. The aim of this study was to evaluate relationships between the serum parameters of lipid metabolism and redox balance in LC patients. Serum parameters of lipid metabolism, i.e. total cholesterol (T-C), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), triglycerides (TG), T-C:HDL-C ratio, non-HDL-C, apolipoprotein A1 (Apo-A1), apolipoprotein B (Apo-B) and Apo-B:Apo-A1 ratio, as well as systemic redox status, i.e. total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), vitamin E (VE), vitamin C (VC), malonyldialdehyde (MDA), conjugated dienes (CD), and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) were determined in 92 LC patients and 82 control subjects (CS). LC women had significantly lower T-C and LDL-C, and higher TG, while HDL-C, Apo-A1 and Apo-B were significantly decreased in LC patients regardless of sex, when compared to CS. LC men had alterations in the systemic total redox balance such as lower TAS and higher OSI than CS men. LC women had lower VC, but VE was decreased in LC patients, regardless of sex. We observed higher lipid peroxidation in LC patients expressed via higher 4-HNE and CD. Systemic redox disturbances were associated with serum lipid alterations: TOS and OSI were positively correlated with T-C:HDL-C ratio and Apo-B:Apo-A1 ratio and negatively with HDL-C. The parameters of lipid peroxidation CD and MDA were significantly associated with variables reflecting lipid disturbances. The observed correlations were strengthened by general overweight/obesity, abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and non-smoking status. In conclusion, parameters related to lipid alterations are associated with oxidative stress in LC patients. The largest contribution from lipid parameters was revealed for T-C:HDL-C ratio, HDL-C and Apo-B:Apo-A1 ratio, while the largest contribution from redox status was revealed for OSI and VE. Overweight, obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and non-smoking status intensified these relationships.
