Gender-Dimorphic Impact of PXR Genotype and Haplotype on Hepatotoxicity During Antituberculosis Treatment.

ABSTRACT: AbstractWomen have a higher risk of drug-induced hepatotoxicity during antituberculosis treatment (HATT) than men. We hypothesized that single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotype and derived haplotype of pregnane X receptor (PXR) gene, which could regulate the expression of phase I enzyme cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4, had a sex-specific influence on the risk of HATT.Six SNPs of the PXR gene were sequenced. Genotypes and haplotypes of the PXR SNPs, and other potential risk factors for HATT were compared between pulmonary TB patients with and those without HATT. HATT was defined as an increase in serum transaminase level >3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) with symptoms, or >5 times ULN without symptoms. We performed the study in a derivation and a validation cohort.Among the 355 patients with pulmonary TB in the derivation cohort, 70 (19.7%) developed HATT. Logistic regression analysis revealed the risk of HATT increased in female genotype AA at rs2461823 (OR: 6.87 [2.55–18.52]) and decreased in female genotype AA at rs7643645 (OR: 0.14 [0.02–1.02]) of PXR gene. Haplotype analysis showed that female h001101 (OR: 2.30 [1.22–4.32]) and female h000110 (OR: 2.25 [1.08–4.69]) haplotype were associated with increased HATT risk. The identified predictors were also significantly associated with female HATT risk among the 182 patients in the validation cohort.Two PXR SNP genotypes and 2 haplotypes influenced the risk of HATT only in females. The PXR SNP showed a sex-specific impact that contributed to an increased HATT risk in females.

Project description:BackgroundThe accumulation of the hepatotoxic substance protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) induced by aminolevulinate synthase 1 (ALAS1) activation is one of the important mechanisms of antituberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH). Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) may activate ALAS1 transcription. However, little is known about their roles in ATDH; we performed a study to determine the association between polymorphisms in the two genes and ATDH susceptibility. Then, we verified this possible association by cellular functional experiments.Materials and methodsTag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (TagSNPs) in the two genes were genotyped in 746 tuberculosis patients. The frequencies of the alleles, genotypes, genetic models, and haplotype distribution of the variants were compared between the case and control groups. L-02 cells and HepG2 cells were incubated with the indicated concentration of isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RIF) for the desired times, and then the expression levels of ALAS1 and FOXO1 mRNAs and proteins were detected. HepG2 cells were transiently transfected with FOXO1 siRNA to observe the effect of changes in the FOXO1 expression on the cell survival rate and ALAS1 expression.ResultsThe C allele at rs2755237 and the T allele at rs4435111 in the FOXO1 gene were associated with a decreased risk of ATDH. The expression of ALAS1 in both L-02 cells and HepG2 cells was increased by the coadministration of INH/RIF (600/200 μM) for 24 h. Although FOXO1 expression was reduced slightly by the same treatment, its content in the nucleus was significantly increased. However, the cell survival rate and ALAS1 expression level were not significantly altered by the downregulation of FOXO1 in HepG2 cells.ConclusionsVariants of the rs4435111 and rs2755237 loci in the FOXO1 gene were associated with susceptibility to ATDH. Coadministration of INH/RIF promoted the transfer of FOXO1 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, but the functional significance of its nuclear translocation requires further verification.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Genetic variability in ABCB1, encoding the P-glycoprotein efflux transporter, has been linked to altered methadone maintenance treatment dose requirements. However, subsequent studies have indicated that additional environmental or genetic factors may confound ABCB1 pharmacogenetics in different methadone maintenance treatment settings. There is evidence that genetic variability in OPRM1, encoding the mu opioid receptor, and ABCB1 may interact to affect morphine response in opposite ways. This study aimed to examine whether a similar gene-gene interaction occurs for methadone in methadone maintenance treatment. METHODS:Opioid-dependent subjects (n = 119) maintained on methadone (15-300 mg/day) were genotyped for five single nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCB1 (61A > G; 1199G > A; 1236C > T; 2677G > T; 3435C > T), as well as for the OPRM1 118A > G single nucleotide polymorphism. Subjects' methadone doses and trough plasma (R)-methadone concentrations (C(trough)) were compared between ABCB1 haplotypes (with and without controlling for OPRM1 genotype), and between OPRM1 genotypes (with and without controlling for ABCB1 haplotype). RESULTS:Among wild-type OPRM1 subjects, an ABCB1 variant haplotype group (subjects with a wild-type and 61A:1199G:1236C:2677T:3435T haplotype combination, or homozygous for the 61A:1199G:1236C:2677T:3435T haplotype) had significantly lower doses (median ± standard deviation 35 ± 5 versus 180 ± 65 mg/day, P < 0.01) and C(trough) (78 ± 22 versus 177 ± 97 ng/mL, P < 0.05) than ABCB1 wild-type subjects. Among subjects with the most common ABCB1 haplotype combination (wild-type with 61A:1199G:1236T:2677T:3435T), the OPRM1 118 A/G genotype was associated with a significantly higher C(trough) than 118 A/A (250 ± 126 versus 108 ± 36 ng/mL, P = 0.016). No ABCB1 haplotype group or OPRM1 genotype was associated with dose or C(trough) without taking into account confounding genetic variability at the other locus. Therefore, two interacting pharmacogenetic determinants of methadone maintenance treatment response were identified, ie, ABCB1, where variants are associated with lower methadone requirements, and OPRM1, where the variant is associated with higher methadone requirements. CONCLUSION:These opposing pharmacogenetic effects therefore need to be considered in combination when assessing methadone maintenance treatment pharmacogenetics.
