Genetic Variants of Alcohol Metabolizing Enzymes and Alcohol-Related Liver Cirrhosis Risk.

ABSTRACT: Alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) is a major public health issue caused by excessive alcohol consumption. ARLD encompasses a wide range of chronic liver lesions, alcohol-related liver cirrhosis being the most severe and harmful state. Variations in the genes encoding the enzymes, which play an active role in ethanol metabolism, might influence alcohol exposure and hence be considered as risk factors of developing cirrhosis. We conducted a case-control study in which 164 alcohol-related liver cirrhosis patients and 272 healthy controls were genotyped for the following functional single nucleotide variations (SNVs): ADH1B gene, rs1229984, rs1041969, rs6413413, and rs2066702; ADH1C gene, rs35385902, rs283413, rs34195308, rs1693482, and rs35719513; CYP2E1 gene, rs3813867. Furthermore, copy number variations (CNVs) for ADH1A, ADH1B, ADH1C, and CYP2E1 genes were analyzed. A significant protective association with the risk of developing alcohol-related liver cirrhosis was observed between the mutant alleles of SNVs ADH1B rs1229984 (P_c value = 0.037) and ADH1C rs283413 (P_c value = 0.037). We identified CNVs in all genes studied, ADH1A gene deletions being more common in alcohol-related liver cirrhosis patients than in control subjects, although the association lost statistical significance after multivariate analyses. Our findings support that susceptibility to alcohol-related liver cirrhosis is related to variations in alcohol metabolism genes.

Alcohol Intake, Alcohol Metabolizing Enzymes Gene Polymorphisms and the Risk of Colorectal Cancer

Project description:According to the statistic reports from World Health Organization (WHO) International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the incidence and mortality rate of colorectal cancer ranked third and fourth respectively among ten most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide; moreover, based on the statistics from Health Promotion Administration, Ministry of Health and Welfare in Taiwan, the incidence and mortality rate of colorectal cancer ranked second and third respectively among call cancer in Taiwanese population. However, if colorectal cancer is diagnosed and treated in early phase, the 5-year survival rate for stage I colorectal cancer can be up to 90%; on the other hand, the 5-year survival rate for end stage colorectal cancer is only approximately 10%. Therefore, the screening, early diagnosis od colorectal cancer is crucial. To date, there are some known risk factors for colorectal cancer, including familial adenomatous polyposis, obesity, physical inactivity, etc. Alcohol had also been identified as an important risk factor for colorectal cancer, and the risk could be higher among Asian population because of the reduced enzymatic activity of some of the alcohol metabolizing enzymes. Thus, through this study, the investigators hope to find out the risk factors of colorectal cancer among Taiwanese population, including alcohol metabolizing enzyme gene polymorphisms and their interaction with environmental factors, to attain the purpose of early prevention of colorectal cancer.

Genetic variants of alcohol-metabolizing enzymes in Brugada syndrome: Insights into syncope after drinking alcohol.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with Brugada syndrome (BrS) are known to have arrhythmic events after alcohol drinking and are recommended to avoid its excessive intake. Mechanisms underlying the alcohol-induced cardiac events are however unknown. This study aimed to test the hypothesis whether activity of alcohol-metabolizing enzymes determines fatal arrhythmic events after drinking alcohol.MethodsA total of 198 Japanese patients with BrS were enrolled in this study. These patients were classified into symptomatic (n = 90) and asymptomatic (n = 108) groups. The former was divided into an alcohol-related group (syncope after alcohol drinking, n = 16) and an alcohol-unrelated group (n = 74). Polymerase chain reaction was performed to determine genetic variants of genes encoding alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (ADH1B) and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2).ResultsThe genotype distribution for ALDH2 was not significantly different between symptomatic and asymptomatic groups and between alcohol-related and alcohol-unrelated groups. The genotype distribution for ADH1B was not significantly different between symptomatic and asymptomatic groups, but the genotype ADH1B His/His was significantly more prevalent in the alcohol-related group than in the alcohol-unrelated group (81.3% vs 50%, P = .023). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the genotype of ADH1B His/His was independently associated with syncope after alcohol drinking (odds ratio, 5.746; 95% confidence interval, 1.580-28.421; P = .007).ConclusionsArrhythmic events after alcohol drinking was associated with enhanced activity of alcohol-metabolizing enzyme ADH1B in our cohort of BrS. Therefore, the lifestyle change to avoid the excessive alcohol intake deserves attention.

Cigarette smoking, genetic variants in carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes, and colorectal cancer risk.

Project description:The risk of colorectal cancer associated with smoking is unclear and may be influenced by genetic variation in enzymes that metabolize cigarette carcinogens. The authors examined the colorectal cancer risk associated with smoking and 26 variants in carcinogen metabolism genes in 1,174 colorectal cancer cases and 1,293 population-based controls recruited in Canada by the Ontario Familial Colorectal Cancer Registry from 1997 to 2001. Adjusted odds ratios were calculated by multivariable logistic regression. Smoking for >27 years was associated with a statistically significant increased colorectal cancer risk (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 1.25, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02, 1.53) in all subjects. Colorectal cancer risk associated with smoking was higher in males for smoking status, duration, and intensity. The CYP1A1-3801-CC (AOR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.23, 0.94) and CYP2C9-430-CT (AOR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.68, 0.99) genotypes were associated with decreased risk, and the GSTM1-K173N-CG (AOR = 1.99, 95% CI: 1.21, 3.25) genotype was associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Statistical interactions between smoking and genetic variants were assessed by comparing logistic regression models with and without a multiplicative interaction term. Significant interactions were observed between smoking status and SULT1A1-638 (P = 0.02), NAT2-857 (P = 0.01), and CYP1B1-4390 (P = 0.04) variants and between smoking duration and NAT1-1088 (P = 0.02), SULT1A1-638 (P = 0.04), and NAT1-acetylator (P = 0.03) status. These findings support the hypothesis that prolonged cigarette smoking is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer and that this risk may be modified by variation in carcinogen metabolism genes.

Genetic variants in carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes, cigarette smoking and pancreatic cancer risk.

Project description:Individual susceptibility to the toxic effects of cigarette smoke may be modified by inherited variability in carcinogen metabolism. The purpose of the present study was to investigate pancreatic cancer risk associated with cigarette smoking and 33 variants within carcinogen metabolism genes and examine whether these variants modify the association between smoking and pancreatic cancer. A population-based study was conducted with 455 pancreatic cancer cases and 893 controls. Epidemiological and smoking data were collected from questionnaires and variants were genotyped by mass spectrometry. Age- and sex-adjusted odds ratio (ASOR) and multivariate-adjusted odds ratio (MVOR) estimates were obtained using multivariate logistic regression, and interactions between each variant and smoking were investigated. Current smoker status [MVOR = 2.29, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.62, 3.22], 10-27 pack-years (MVOR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.13, 2.18), >27 pack-years (MVOR = 1.77, 95% CI: 1.27, 2.46) and longer durations of smoking (19-32 years: MVOR = 1.46, 95% CI: 1.05, 2.05; >32 years: MVOR = 1.78, 95% CI: 1.30, 2.45) were associated with increased pancreatic cancer risk. CYP1B1-4390-GG (ASOR = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.15, 0.86) and Uridine 5'-diphospho glucuronosyltransferase 1 family, polypeptide A7-622-CT (ASOR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.60, 0.99) were associated with reduced risk. N-acetyltransferase 1-640-GT/GG (ASOR = 1.75, 95% CI: 1.00, 3.05), GSTM1 (rs737497)-GG (ASOR = 1.41, 95% CI: 1.02, 1.95), GSTM1 gene deletion (ASOR = 4.89, 95% CI: 3.52, 6.79) and glutathione S-transferase theta-1 gene deletion (ASOR = 4.41, 95% CI: 2.67, 7.29) were associated with increased risk. Significant interactions were observed between pack-years and EPHX1-415 (P = 0.04) and smoking status and N-acetyltransferase 2-857 (P = 0.03). Variants of carcinogen metabolism genes are independently associated with pancreatic cancer risk and may modify the risk posed by smoking.

Genetic polymorphism in alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) gene and alcoholic liver cirrhosis risk.

Project description:The alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2) gene has been implicated in the development of alcoholic liver cirrhosis (ALC). However, the results are inconsistent. In this study, a meta-analysis was performed to assess the associations between the ADH2 polymorphism and the risk of ALC. Relevant studies were retrieved by searching PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP databases up to January 10, 2015. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated using the fixed- or random effects model. A total of 21 case-control studies included 1812 cases and 3468 controls were included. Overall, the ADH2 polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of ALC in all four genetic models (dominant model: OR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.38-0.83; recessive model: OR=0.59, 95% CI: 0.39-0.91; *1/*2 vs. *1/*1: OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.40-0.85; *2/*2 vs *1/*1: OR=0.35, 95% CI: 0.16-0.75). Besides, in stratification analysis by ethnicity, similar results were observed in Asian populations, however, we detected no association in Caucasian populations under recessive and homozygote comparison model. The pooled evidence suggests that ADH2 polymorphism may be an important protective factor for alcoholic liver cirrhosis, especially for Asians.

Alcohol Metabolizing Enzymes, Microsomal Ethanol Oxidizing System, Cytochrome P450 2E1, Catalase, and Aldehyde Dehydrogenase in Alcohol-Associated Liver Disease.

Project description:Once ingested, most of the alcohol is metabolized in the liver by alcohol dehydrogenase to acetaldehyde. Two additional pathways of acetaldehyde generation are by microsomal ethanol oxidizing system (cytochrome P450 2E1) and catalase. Acetaldehyde can form adducts which can interfere with cellular function, leading to alcohol-induced liver injury. The variants of alcohol metabolizing genes encode enzymes with varied kinetic properties and result in the different rate of alcohol elimination and acetaldehyde generation. Allelic variants of these genes with higher enzymatic activity are believed to be able to modify susceptibility to alcohol-induced liver injury; however, the human studies on the association of these variants and alcohol-associated liver disease are inconclusive. In addition to acetaldehyde, the shift in the redox state during alcohol elimination may also link to other pathways resulting in activation of downstream signaling leading to liver injury.

Non-uniformity of Changes in Drug-Metabolizing Enzymes and Transporters in Liver Cirrhosis: Implications for Drug Dosage Adjustment.

Project description:Liver cirrhosis is a chronic disease that affects the liver structure, protein expression, and overall metabolic function. Abundance data for drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters (DMET) across all stages of disease severity are scarce. Levels of these proteins are crucial for the accurate prediction of drug clearance in hepatically impaired patients using physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models, which can be used to guide the selection of more precise dosing. This study aimed to experimentally quantify these proteins in human liver samples and assess how they can impact the predictive performance of the PBPK models. We determined the absolute abundance of 51 DMET proteins in human liver microsomes across the three degrees of cirrhosis severity (n = 32; 6 mild, 13 moderate, and 13 severe), compared to histologically normal controls (n = 14), using QconCAT-based targeted proteomics. The results revealed a significant but non-uniform reduction in the abundance of enzymes and transporters, from control, by 30-50% in mild, 40-70% in moderate, and 50-90% in severe cirrhosis groups. Cancer and/or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-related cirrhosis showed larger deterioration in levels of CYP3A4, 2C8, 2E1, 1A6, UGT2B4/7, CES1, FMO3/5, EPHX1, MGST1/3, BSEP, and OATP2B1 than the cholestasis set. Drug-specific pathways together with non-uniform changes of abundance across the enzymes and transporters under various degrees of cirrhosis necessitate the use of PBPK models. As case examples, such models for repaglinide, dabigatran, and zidovudine were successful in recovering disease-related alterations in drug exposure. In conclusion, the current study provides the biological rationale behind the absence of a single dose adjustment formula for all drugs in cirrhosis and demonstrates the utility of proteomics-informed PBPK modeling for drug-specific dose adjustment in liver cirrhosis.

Mortality From Alcohol-Related Liver Cirrhosis in Mexico (2000-2017).

Project description:Background: Alcohol is the main cause of liver cirrhosis. The objective of this study was to analyze the mortality rates of alcohol-related cirrhosis in Mexico from 2000 to 2017. Methods: Mortality data from alcohol-related cirrhosis were obtained from the National Institute of Statistics and Geography. Rates were adjusted to the World Standard Population and were calculated with a direct method. The differences between genders were evaluated with Student's t-test, while the ANOVA test was used for differences among age groups. A trend analysis was performed with an ln regression of adjusted mortality rates and analyzed with Student's t-test. Results: The mean age-adjusted mortality rate during the study period was 13.28 per 100,000 inhabitants. A significant decrease in mortality rates was observed, from 20.55 to 10.62 per 100,000 inhabitants. All age groups studied showed a significant decrease in mortality. The mortality rate was higher in males than in females. Conclusions: Mortality from alcohol-related cirrhosis decreased in Mexico. Males still have the highest mortality rate.

Genetic polymorphisms in ataxin-3 and liver cirrhosis risk related to aflatoxin B1.

Project description:Altered expression of ataxin-3 (AT3) can modify DNA repair capacity and is observed in human diseases. The genetic polymorphisms of this gene in aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-related liver cirrhosis (LC) have not yet been elucidated.We conducted a hospital-based case-control study, including 384 patients with LC and 851 controls without any liver diseases, to assess the association between 264 polymorphisms in AT3 and AFB1-related LC risk. Genotype were tested using TaqMan-PCR or sequencing technique.We found three differentially distributed SNPs (rs8021276, rs7158733, and rs10146249) via the screening analysis; however, only rs8021276 polymorphism was further identified to modify the risk of LC. Compared with the homozygote of rs8021276 A alleles (rs8021276-AA), the genotypes of rs8021276 G alleles (rs8021276-AG or -GG) increased LC risk (OR: 2.48 and 6.98; 95% CI: 1.84-3.33 and 4.35-11.22, respectively). Significant interactive effects between risk genotypes and AFB1 exposure status were also observed in the joint effects analysis. Additionally, rs8021276 polymorphism was also associated with down-regulation of AT3 mRNA expression and increasing AFB1-DNA adducts in liver tissues with cirrhosis.These results suggest AT3 polymorphisms may be risk biomarkers of AFB1-related LC, and rs8021276 is a potential candidate.

Binge-pattern alcohol consumption and genetic risk as determinants of alcohol-related liver disease.

Project description:Alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) represents a major public health burden. Identification of high-risk individuals would allow efficient targeting of public health interventions. Here, we show significant interactions between pattern of drinking, genetic predisposition (polygenic risk score, PRS) and diabetes mellitus, and risk of incident ARLD, in 312,599 actively drinking adults in UK Biobank. Binge and heavy binge drinking significantly increase the risk of alcohol-related cirrhosis (ARC), with higher genetic predisposition further amplifying the risk. Further, we demonstrate a pronounced interaction between heavy binge drinking and high PRS, resulting in a relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) of 6.07. Diabetes consistently elevates ARC risk across all drinking and PRS categories, and showed significant interaction with both binge patterns and genetic risk. Overall, we demonstrate synergistic effects of binge drinking, genetics, and diabetes on ARC, with potential to identify high-risk individuals for targeted interventions.
