Analysis Of Silent Information Regulator 1 (Sirt1) Gene Polymorphisms In Anti-Tuberculosis Drug-Induced Hepatotoxicity In A Prospective Cohort Study
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY AND THERAPEUTICS(2016)
Abstract
Objective: Antituberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH) is a common and sometimes serious side effect related to tuberculosis (TB) treatment. A number of risk factors and host genetics contribute to the development of ATDH. However, genetic factors of ATDH remain to be identified. Silent Information Regulator 1 (SIRT1), an essential metabolism gene, was proved to be involved in ATDH in mice. The aim of this investigation was to study the association between ATDH and tag-single nucleotide polymorphisms (tag-SNPs) of the SIRT1 gene in a prospective cohort study in patients with TB. Methods: 280 newly diagnosed TB patients were recruited in this study before starting first line anti-TB treatment and were followed up for 3 months after initiating anti-TB therapy. The tag-SNPs were selected by using Haploview 4.2 based on the HapMap database of Han Chinese Beijing. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the Sequenom MassARRAY iPLEX platform. Results: 24 (9.8%) of the 245 patients included in the final analysis developed hepatotoxicity during the following up period. No significant differences in the allele, genotype, or haplotype frequency distributions of the tagSNPs (rs7069102, rs2273773, rs4746720) of the SIRT1 gene were identified between the ATDH and non-ATDH groups (all p > 0.05). Conclusions: The SIRT1 gene may not contribute to the risk for developing hepatotoxicity during anti-TB treatment in the Han Chinese population.
