Genomewide Association Study Confirming the Association of NAT2 with Susceptibility to Antituberculosis Drug-Induced Liver Injury in Thai Patients.


ABSTRACT: Antituberculosis drug-induced liver injury (ATDILI) is a common side effect leading to tuberculosis (TB) treatment disruption. The mechanism of the disease remains poorly understood. We conducted a genomewide association study (GWAS) to investigate all possible genetic factors of ATDILI in Thai patients. This study was carried out in Thai TB patients, including 79 ATDILI cases and 239 tolerant controls from our network hospitals in Thailand. Nearly 1 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped across the whole genome using an Illumina OmniExpress Exome BeadChip array. In the discovery stage, we identified strong association signals on chromosome 8 originating from the N-acetyltransferase (NAT2) region. The A allele of rs1495741, the top SNP in the intergenic region of NAT2 and PSD3 (14?kb from NAT2), was significantly associated with ATDILI (recessive model, odds ratio of 6.01 [95% confidence interval, 3.42 to 10.57]; P?=?6.86E-11). This particular SNP was reported as a tag SNP for NAT2 inferred phenotypes. The AA, AG, and GG genotypes represented NAT2 slow acetylators, intermediate acetylators, and fast acetylators, respectively. The tag SNP genotypes demonstrated a concordance rate of 94.98% with NAT2 acetylator phenotypes. This GWAS shows that NAT2 is the most important risk factor for ATDILI in the Thai population.
