[PMID: 38689651 PMCID: PMC11058208 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2024.1374405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Over the past few decades, gout and diseases like metabolic syndrome (MetS) have become more prevalent. Attempts have been made in Taiwan to identify the genes responsible for gout. A few gene loci, among them SLC2A9, have been identified using Taiwan Biobank (TWB) data. We, therefore, examined whether MetS could also account for the association between polymorphism SLC2A9 rs3733591 and gout. Methods The final analysis consisted of 73,558 subjects, of whom 2,709 had gout. To estimate the likelihood of gout occurrence based on rs3733591 and MetS, we used logistic regression models. Results Rs3733591-TC + CC compared to TT genotype was associated with gout (OR, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.06-1.25). Also associated with gout was MetS (OR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.10-1.33). A significant interaction was seen between rs3733591 and MetS (p-value = 0.039). Using rs3733591-TT/no MetS as the reference group, the ORs (95% CI) for gout was 1.24 (1.11-1.38) for TC + CC/no MetS, 1.35 (1.17-1.56) for TT/MetS, and 1.39 (1.22-1.58) for TC + CC/MetS. However, subgroup analysis defined by sex showed no significant associations in women. Conclusion In summary, metabolic syndrome and SLC2A9 rs3733591 genotypes were interactively associated with gout in Taiwanese men, but not women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. The important role of urid acid (UA) in MAFLD has been widely investigated. Our previous studies unveiled the elevation of serum UA levels independently predicts an increased risk of incident MAFLD. However, the role of intrahepatic UA in MAFLD has not been investigated yet. Glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9) is a key transporter that mediates the uptake of UA in hepatocytes. METHODS In this study, we first explored the clinical association between GLUT9 polymorphism and MAFLD. Blood samples of 247 male Chinese (127 were MAFLD patients) were collected and tested for the blood UA levels and genotype of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of GLUT9 (rs1014290). Next, Glut9 hepatic-specific knockout mice (Glut9Hep-ko) were generated to investigate the role of hepatic GLUT9 in MAFLD in male mice. RESULTS We found that the GA/AA genotypes (rs1014290) were associated with elevated serum UA levels in MAFLD patients. Meanwhile, we found that Glut9Hep-ko mice displayed lower intrahepatic UA levels, down-regulated lipogenesis genes expressions, and attenuated MAFLD symptoms after 12 weeks of high-fat diet feeding, compared with Glut9Fl/Fl littermates. However, Glut9Hep-ko mice and wild-type littermates showed no significant difference on hepatic fatty acid oxidation or inflammation. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggested that GLUT9 polymorphism was significantly associated with MAFLD, and hepatic-specific knockout of Glut9 significantly decreased intrahepatic contents and ameliorated diet-induced MAFLD in mice.

Abstract
Gout is a common inflammatory arthritis caused by the deposition of sodium urate crystals in the joints. Hyperuricemia is the fundamental factor of gout. The onset of hyperuricemia is related to purine metabolism disorders or uric acid excretion disorders. Current studies have shown that the intestine is an important potential organ for the excretion of uric acid outside the kidneys. The excretion of uric acid of gut is mainly achieved through the action of uric acid transporters and the catabolism of intestinal flora, which plays an important role in the body’s uric acid balance. Here we reviewed the effects of intestinal uric acid transporters and intestinal flora on uric acid excretion, and provide new ideas for the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout.

Abstract
Background Hyperuricemia is associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes, although it is uncertain whether this relationship is causal in nature. This study aimed to: (1) assess the heritability of serum uric acid (SUA) levels, (2) conduct a genome‐wide association study on SUA levels, and (3) investigate the association between certain single‐nucleotide polymorphisms and target organ damage. Methods and Results The STANISLAS (Suivi Temporaire Annuel Non‐Invasif de la Santé des Lorrains Assurés Sociaux) study cohort is a single‐center longitudinal cohort recruited between 1993 and 1995 (visit 1), with a last visit (visit 4 [V4]) performed ≈20 years apart. Serum lipid profile, SUA, urinary albumin/creatinine ratio, estimated glomerular filtration rate, 24‐hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, transthoracic echocardiography, pulse wave velocity, and genotyping for each participant were assessed at V4. A total of 1573 participants were included at V4, among whom 1417 had available SUA data at visit 1. Genome‐wide association study results highlighted multiple single‐nucleotide polymorphisms on the SLC2A9 gene linked to SUA levels. Carriers of the most associated mutated SLC2A9 allele (rs16890979) had significantly lower SUA levels. Although SUA level at V4 was highly associated with diabetes, prediabetes, higher body mass index, CRP (C‐reactive protein) levels, estimated glomerular filtration rate variation (visit 1–V4), carotid intima‐media thickness, and pulse wave velocity, rs16890979 was only associated with higher carotid intima‐media thickness. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that rs16890979, a genetic determinant of SUA levels located on the SLC2A9 gene, is associated with carotid intima‐media thickness despite significant associations between SUA levels and several clinical outcomes, thereby lending support to the hypothesis of a link between SUA and cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
Objectives In recent years, long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been found to play a role in the occurrence, progression and prognosis of chronic musculoskeletal disorders. Design and methods Literature exploring on PubMed was conducted using the combination of keywords 'LncRNA' and each of the following: 'osteoarthritis', 'rheumatoid arthritis', 'osteoporosis', 'osteogenesis', 'osteoclastogenesis', 'gout arthritis', 'Kashin‐Beck disease', 'ankylosing spondylitis', 'cervical spondylotic myelopathy', 'intervertebral disc degeneration', 'human muscle disease' and 'muscle hypertrophy and atrophy'. For each disorder, we focused on the publications in the last five years (5/1/2016‐2021/5/1, except for Kashin‐Beck disease). Finally, we excluded publications that had been reported in reviews of various musculoskeletal disorders during the last three years. Here, we summarized the progress of research on the role of lncRNA in multiple pathological processes during musculoskeletal disorders. Results LncRNAs play a crucial role in regulating downstream gene expression and maintaining function and homeostasis of cells, especially in chondrocytes, synovial cells, osteoblasts, osteoclasts and skeletal muscle cells. Conclusions Understanding the mechanisms of lncRNAs in musculoskeletal disorders may provide promising strategies for clinical practice.

Abstract
Urate is produced in the liver by the degradation of purines from the diet and nucleotide turnover and excreted by the kidney and gut. The kidney is the major route of urate removal and has a pivotal role in the regulation of urate homeostasis. Approximately 10% of the glomerular filtered urate is excreted in the urine, and the remainder is reabsorbed by the proximal tubule. However, the transport of urate in the proximal tubule is bidirectional: reabsorption and secretion. Thus, an increase in reabsorption or a decrease in secretion may induce hyperuricemia. In contrast, a decrease in reabsorption or an increase in secretion may result in hyperuricosuria. In the proximal tubule, urate reabsorption is mainly mediated by apical URAT1 (SLC22A12) and basolateral GLUT9 (SLC2A9) transporter. OAT4 (SLC22A11) also acts in urate reabsorption in the apical membrane, and its polymorphism is associated with the risk of hyperuricemia. Renal hypouricemia is caused by SLC22A12 or SLC2A9 loss-of-function mutations, and it may be complicated by exercise-induced acute kidney injury. URAT1 and GLUT9 are also drug targets for uricosuric agents. Sodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors may induce hyperuricosuria by inhibiting GLUT9b located in the apical plasma membrane. Urate secretion is mediated by basolateral OAT1 (SLC22A6) and OAT3 (SLC22A8) and apical ATP-binding cassette super-family G member 2 (ABCG2), NPT1 (SLC17A1), and NPT4 (SLC17A3) transporter in the proximal tubule. NPT1 and NPT4 may be key players in renal urate secretion in humans, and deletion of SLC22A6 and SLC22A8 in mice leads to decreased urate excretion. Dysfunctional variants of ABCG2 inhibit urate secretion from the gut and kidney and may cause gout. In summary, the net result of urate transport in the proximal tubule is determined by the dominance of transporters between reabsorption (URAT1, OAT4, and GLUT9) and secretion (ABCG2, NPT1, NPT4, OAT1, and OAT3).

Abstract
Lagotis brachystachya Maxim is a herb widely used in traditional Tibetan medicine. Our previous study indicated that total extracts from Lagotis brachystachya could lower uric acid levels. This study aimed to further elucidate the active components (luteolin, luteoloside and apigenin) isolated from Lagotis brachystachya and the underlying mechanism in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that treatment with luteolin and luteoloside reversed the reduction of organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) levels, while apigenin attenuated the elevation of urate transporter 1 (URAT1) and glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9) levels in uric acid-treated HK-2 cells, which was consistent with the finding in the kidneys of potassium oxonate (PO)-induced mice. On the other hand, hepatic xanthine oxidase activity was inhibited by the components. In addition, all of these active components improved the morphology of the kidney in hyperuricemic mice. Moreover, molecular docking showed that luteolin, luteoloside and apigenin could bind Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3). Congruently, western blot analysis showed that the components inhibited TLR4/myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88)/NLRP3 signaling. In conclusion, these results indicated that luteolin, luteoloside and apigenin could attenuate hyperuricemia by decreasing the production and increasing the excretion of uric acid, which were mediated by inhibiting inflammatory signaling pathways.

[PMID: 33087043 PMCID: PMC7580000 DOI: 10.1186/s12881-020-01147-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2020] [Accepted: 10/13/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Background Replication studies showed conflicting effects of ABCG2 and SLC2A9 polymorphisms on gout and serum urate. This meta-analysis therefore aimed to pool their effects across studies. Methods Studies were located from MEDLINE and Scopus from inception to 17th June 2018. Observational studies in adults with any polymorphism in ABCG2 or SLC2A9, and outcome including gout, hyperuricemia, and serum urate were included for pooling. Data extractions were performed by two independent reviewers. Genotype effects were pooled stratified by ethnicity using a mixed-effect logistic model and a multivariate meta-analysis for dichotomous and continuous outcomes. Results Fifty-two studies were included in the analysis. For ABCG2 polymorphisms, mainly studied in Asians, carrying 1–2 minor-allele-genotypes of rs2231142 and rs72552713 were respectively about 2.1–4.5 and 2.5–3.9 times higher odds of gout than non-minor-allele-genotypes. The two rs2231142-risk-genotypes also had higher serum urate about 11–18 μmol/l. Conversely, carrying 1–2 minor alleles of rs2231137 was about 36–57% significantly lower odds of gout. For SLC2A9 polymorphisms, mainly studied in Caucasians, carrying 1–2 minor alleles of rs1014290, rs6449213, rs6855911, and rs7442295 were about 25–43%, 31–62%, 33–64%, and 35–65% significantly lower odds of gout than non-minor-allele-genotypes. In addition, 1–2 minor-allele-genotypes of the latter three polymorphisms had significantly lower serum urate about 20–49, 21–51, and 18–54 μmol/l than non-minor-allele-genotypes. Conclusions Our findings should be useful in identifying patients at risk for gout and high serum urate and these polymorphisms may be useful in personalized risk scores.

Abstract
We determined that a genetic haplotype increased the risk of hyperuricaemia and it interacted with lifestyle factors, including nutrients in 28,445 middle-aged Koreans. ABCG2_rs2231142, PKD2_rs2725220 and SLC2A9_rs3733591 were selected from GWAS based on hyperuricaemia (≥7 mg/dL; p = 6.88E-42, 1.56E-26 and 1.01E-20, respectively). Hyperuricaemia and gout were elevated by 3.93- and 3.23-fold, respectively, by the minor alleles as compared with the major alleles of the haplotype of the selected 3 SNPs after adjusting for covariates. The haplotype significantly interacted with alcohol, chicken and processed meat intakes, and smoking status in the hyperuricaemia risk (p = 0.002-0.007). Minor alleles of the haplotype had an association with hyperuricaemia as compared with major alleles particularly in high intakes of alcohol (2g/day), chicken (6.3g/day), and processed meat (3g/day) and smokers. In conclusion, people carrying minor alleles of the haplotype of SLC2A9_rs3733591, PKD2_rs2725220 and ABCG2_rs2231142 should avoid diets high in chicken and processed meat, alcohol drinking, and cigarette smoking to protect against hyperuricaemia risk.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the association of uric acid gene polymorphisms and Pre-eclampsia.Methods: 637 women of African ancestry [280 controls, 357 pre-eclampsia (early-onset = 187, late-onset = 170]) retrospectively. The rs505802, rs1212986, and rs1014290 SNPs were genotyped from purified DNA using real-time PCR.Results: CT genotype (rs505802) was higher in pre-eclampsia [Adjusted p = 0.028*: OR (95% CI) = 1.73 (1.258-2.442)] and late-onset pre-eclampsia [Adjusted p = 0.027*: OR (95% CI) = 1.75 (1.165-2.2628)] than controls. CT genotype (rs1014290) was higher in early-onset pre-eclampsia [Adjusted p-value = 0.040*: OR (95% CI) = 1.60 (1.102-2.325)] than controls.Conclusion: The genotyped rs505802 and rs1014290 are significantly associated with pre-eclampsia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between uric acid and kidney disease has been extensively investigated. Numerous studies have reported the association between circulating levels of uric acid and renal function. OBJECTIVES To test, by the Mendelian randomization method, whether there is a causal association between circulating levels of uric acid and renal function. METHODS In 989 participants, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated, the circulating level of uric acid was tested, and the uric acid polymorphism (rs11722228) was genotyped. RESULTS After adjusting for age, gender, smoking history, alcohol intake, antihypertensive medication, body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, and levels of urea nitrogen and creatinine, a significant allelic difference was found in uric acid levels for each genotype (p < 0.0001). Furthermore, the circulating levels of uric acid were negatively associated with eGFR after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors and other potential confounders (p < 0.0001). Meanwhile, eGFR was significantly associated with the genotypes of rs11722228 (β = -0.07; p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Evidence from the Mendelian randomization approach implied a causal relationship between uric acid and renal function in an apparently healthy population.

Aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from patients with gouty arthritis. Exp Ther Med 2019; 18:1967-1976.

Abstract
Gouty arthritis (GA) is the most common inflammatory and immune-associated disease, and its prevalence and incidence exhibit yearly increases. The aim of the present study was to analyse the expression profile variation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in GA patients and to explore the role of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of GA. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells of GA patients and of healthy controls (HCs) were used to detect for the differentially expressed lncRNAs by microarray. The functional annotations and classifications of the differentially expressed transcripts were predicted using Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway analysis. The results were then verified by reverse transcription-quantitative (RT-q)PCR. A total of 1,815 lncRNAs and 971 mRNAs with a >2-fold difference in the levels of expression in the GA patients compared with those in the HCs were identified. According to the GO functional enrichment analysis, the differentially expressed lncRNAs were accumulated in terms including protein binding, catalytic activity and molecular transducer activity. The pathways predicted to be involved were the tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, osteoclast differentiation, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway and NF-κB signaling pathway. The expression of six lncRNAs was measured by RT-qPCR and the results were consistent with those of the microarrays. Among these lncRNAs, AJ227913 was the most differentially expressed lncRNA in GA patients vs. HCs. The expression of several lncRNAs was significantly changed in GA patients compared with that in HCs, which suggests that these lncRNAs with differential expression levels may have an important role in the development and progression of GA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperuricemia and gout represent important issues in the obese patients. Considering the epidemic trend of overweight and obesity in developed countries, the impact of these conditions is likely to increase. At present, bariatric surgery represents the most effective treatment for the management of severe obesity for reducing weight and the impact of associated comorbidities, but its effects on hyperuricemia and gout have not been fully elucidated. METHODS In this narrative review, we discuss the current knowledge about hyperuricemia and gout in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery. We also suggest a useful approach to prevent gouty attacks in the perioperative period. RESULTS Weight loss seems to reduce hyperuricemia in the long-term follow-up, but there is evidence also of a high frequency of acute attacks early after surgery in patients with a diagnosis of gout. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery has a high impact on hyperuricemia and gout. A perioperative approach is suggested, based on appropriate hydration, early physical resumption, urate lowering drugs and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or colchicine and corticosteroids if NSAIDs are ineffective or not tolerated.
