Host single nucleotide polymorphisms and biomarkers of neuronal damage and inflammation in people living with HIV. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2024; 63:107137. [PMID: 38508536 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2024.107137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Blood-brain barrier impairment is frequent in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWHIV), affecting the penetration of target cells and antiretrovirals into the central nervous system, through transporters (e.g. ABCB1), leading to neuroinflammation. This study aimed to identify variants of genes encoding transporters able to predict neuroinflammation biomarker levels. METHODS Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma samples were obtained from PLWHIV. The CSF biomarkers were quantified by commercial assays. Genetic variants were evaluated through real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULTS A total of 107 PLWHIV (163 samples) were included in the study: 79% were male, median age was 48.5 years, CD4% was 25%, and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) was observed in 17.8%. The ABCB1 2677G>T genetic variant showed a different allelic distribution according to the clinical group (P = 0.026). In linear regression analyses, HIV-related central nervous system disorders, ABCG2 1194+928CC genotype, log viral load, CSF-to-serum albumin ratio, β-1,42 levels, and CSF proteins were retained in the final model as factors independently associated with CSF neopterin levels; CSF proteins and integrase inhibitor use were associated with CSF tau level in the multivariate model. Phospho-tau regression analysis reported the ABCB1 2677GT/TT genotype and CSF proteins as predictors in the final model; sex, protease inhibitors, neopterin, and ABCB1 2677 GT/ TT genotype were predictors in the multivariate regression for β-1,42. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, pharmacogenetic and clinical features were found to be predictors of neuro-inflammation biomarkers.

Pharmacogenetic Study of the Impact of ABCB1 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms on the Response to Cyclosporine in Psoriasis Patients. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14112441. [PMID: 36432633 PMCID: PMC9693450 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14112441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 10/30/2022] [Accepted: 11/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic, T cell-mediated skin disease affecting 2-3% of the Caucasian population. Cyclosporine A is a calcineurin inhibitor that acts selectively on T cells. The cyclosporine A treatment response has been suggested to be modulated by single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the ABCB1 gene. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of ABCB1 genetic variants that could affect the response to a cyclosporine treatment in Russian psoriasis patients with the ABCB1 genotype status. The ABCB1 T-129C, G1199A, C1236T, G2677T/A and C3435T SNPs in the 168 patients with psoriasis were genotyped by PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism) and TaqMan SNP genotyping assays. The ABCB1 C1236T, G2677T/A and C3435T SNPs were significantly associated with a negative response to cyclosporine therapy. A very strong association was evident for the C3435T SNP in the ABCB1 gene in the allele, dominant and recessive models (OR = 2.58, OR = 4.01, OR = 2.50, respectively). ABCB1 C1236T and G2677T/A polymorphisms were significantly associated with a negative response to the cyclosporine therapy in the codominant, dominant and recessive models (p ˂ 0.05). Additionally, the haplotype analysis identified that the TGC haplotype is significantly associated with a negative response to cyclosporine therapy in psoriasis patients (p ˂ 0.05). The current study to the best of our knowledge is the first of its kind to be performed in the Russian population. In conclusion, the present results suggest an association between the ABCB1 genetic variants and unresponsiveness to cyclosporine in the Russian population. Further, larger studies are necessary to confirm our findings and replicate them in various ethnic populations before its implementation in the clinical practice.

Abstract
Objective: The standard methods for tri-allelic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping require special equipment and are costly to perform. The aim of this study was to establish a fast, simple, and low-cost method to differentiate among tri-allelic SNPs in general laboratories. Methods: Based on the tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (T-ARMS-PCR) typing of bi-allelic SNPs, we developed a penta-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (P-ARMS-PCR) method characterize tri-allelic SNPs. The two most studied tri-allelic SNPs, rs2032582 and rs3091244, were genotyped using P-ARMS-PCR in 110 volunteers, and the results were verified by direct DNA sequencing. Results: For rs2032582, there were 20 samples (18.18%) with the GG genotype, 3 (2.73%) with the AA genotype, 24 (21.82%) with the TT genotype, 43 (39.09%) with the GT genotype, 11 (10.00%) with the AG genotype, and 9 (8.18%) with the AT genotype. For rs3091244, there were 67 samples (60.91%) with the CC genotype, 1 (0.91%) with the AA genotype, 8 (7.27%) with the CT genotype, 31 (28.18%) with the CA genotype, and 3 (2.73%) with the AT genotype. The genotypic distributions of rs2032582 (p = 0.482) and rs3091244 (p = 0.492) were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The DNA sequencing results were entirely consistent with the results of P-ARMS-PCR. Conclusion: P-ARMS-PCR is an accurate, rapid, simple, and low-cost characterization method for tri-allelic SNP genotyping of rs2032582 and rs3091244.

Abstract
(1) Background: The aim of our study was to analyze the possible relationship of ABCB1 and CYP1A1 gene variants with susceptibility and outcome of multiple myeloma (MM); (2) Methods: Genomic DNA samples from 110 newly-diagnosed MM patients and 100 healthy blood donors were analyzed by methods-PCR-RFLP (for ABCB1 3435C > T, CYP1A1 6235T > C-m1), automated DNA sequencing (for ABCB1 1236C > T, 2677G > T/A) and allele-specific PCR (for CYP1A1 4889A > G-m2); (3) Results: The genotypic frequencies of CYP1A1 4889A > G variant were not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for MM patients. The presence of m1 and m2 CYP1A1 alleles decreased the risk of MM-OR = 0.49 (p = 0.011) and OR = 0.27 (p = 0.0003), respectively. In turn, TT genotype (ABCB1 2677G > T/A) increased the risk of this disease (p = 0.007). In the multivariate Cox analysis CT + TT genotypes (ABCB1 3435C > T) were associated with decreased risk of death (HR = 0.29, p = 0.04). In log-rank test in patients with CT genotype (ABCB1 3435C > T) was observed association of overall survival with the type of treatment; (4) Conclusions: Our findings suggest that T-alleles of ABCB1 2677G > T/A and m1/m2 alleles of CYP1A1 affected the susceptibility of MM. Moreover, T-allele of ABCB1 3435C > T might be independent positive prognostic factor in MM.

Estrogen profile- and pharmacogenetics-based lamotrigine dosing regimen optimization: Recommendations for pregnant women with epilepsy. Pharmacol Res 2021; 169:105610. [PMID: 33857625 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2021.105610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
During pregnancy, various physiological changes occur that can alter the pharmacokinetics of antiepileptic drugs, such as lamotrigine (LTG). Anticipating the change in LTG dose required to achieve a pre-pregnancy target concentration is challenging. This study aimed to develop a refined population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model of LTG in pregnant women with epilepsy (WWE) to identify factors explaining the variability in pharmacokinetics and to establish a model-informed individualized dosing regimen. On that basis, a coarsened model containing only clinical variables was also developed to examine its predictive performance compared to the refined model. In total, 322 concentration-time points from 51 pregnant WWE treated with LTG were employed to establish a refined PopPK model that included endogenous estrogen profiles, variants of candidate genes encoding LTG-metabolizing enzymes and -transporter proteins, and other clinical variables and a coarsened model that included only clinical variables, respectively. Data from an additional 11 patients were used for external validation of these two models. A nonlinear mixed-effect modeling approach was used for PopPK analysis of LTG. The standard goodness-of-fit method, bootstrap, normalized prediction distribution errors and external evaluation were adopted to estimate the stability and predictive performance of the candidate models. Akaike information criterion (AIC) was used to compare the goodness of fit between these two models. A lower AIC indicates a better fit of the data and the preferred model. Recommended dosing regimens for pregnant WWE were selected using Monte Carlo simulation based on the established optimal model. In the refined PopPK model, the population mean of apparent LTG clearance (CL/F) in pregnant WWE was estimated to be 2.82 L/h, with an inter-individual variability of 23.6%. PopPK analysis indicated that changes in estrogen profile during pregnancy were the predominant reason for the significant variations in LTG-CL/F. Up to the 3rd trimester, the concentration accumulation effect of E2 increased LTG-CL/F by 5.109 L/h from baseline levels. Contrary to effect of E2, E3 as the main circulating estrogen in pregnancy with a peak value of 34.41 ng/mL is 1000-fold higher than that in non-pregnancy reduced LTG-CL/F by 1.413 L/h. In addition, the UGT2B7 rs4356975 C > T and ABCB1 rs1128503 A > G variants may contribute to a better understanding of the inter-individual variability in LTG-CL/F. LTG-CL/F was 1.66-fold higher in UGT2B7 rs4356975 CT or TT genotype carriers than in CC genotype carriers. In contrast, ABCB1 rs1128503 GG genotype carriers had only 71.9% of the LTG-CL/F of AA or AG genotype carriers. In the coarsened PopPK model, the gestational age was a promising predictor of changes in LTG-CL/F. When comparing these two models, the refined PopPK model was favored over the coarsened PopPK model (AIC = -30.899 vs. -20.017). Monte Carlo simulation based on optimal PopPK model revealed that the LTG dosage administered to carriers of the UGT2B7 rs4356975 CT or TT genotype required a 33-50% increase to reach the pre-pregnancy target concentration, and carriers of the ABCB1 rs1128503 GG genotype required a 33-66% lower dose of LTG than carriers of the ABCB1 rs1128503 AA or AG genotype. Changes in estrogen profile during pregnancy was a better predictor of variations in LTG-CL/F than gestational age. The developed model based on estrogen profile and pharmacogenetics can serve as a foundation for further optimization of dosing regimens of LTG in pregnant WWE.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1), also known as permeability glycoprotein, multidrug-resistant protein 1, or cluster of differentiation 243 (CD243), is a crucial protein for purging foreign substances from cells. The functions of ABCB1 have been investigated extensively for their roles in cancer, stem cells, and drug resistance. Abundant pharmacogenetic studies have been conducted on ABCB1 and its association with treatment responsiveness to various agents, particularly chemotherapeutic and immunomodulatory agents. However, its functions in the skin and implications on dermatotherapeutics are far less reported. In this article, we reviewed the roles of ABCB1 in dermatology. ABCB1 is expressed in the skin and its appendages during drug delivery and transport. It is associated with treatment responsiveness to various agents, including topical steroids, methotrexate, cyclosporine, azathioprine, antihistamines, antifungal agents, colchicine, tacrolimus, ivermectin, tetracycline, retinoid acids, and biologic agents. Moreover, genetic variation in ABCB1 is associated with the pathogenesis of several dermatoses, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, melanoma, bullous pemphigoid, Behçet disease, and lichen planus. Further investigation is warranted to elucidate the roles of ABCB1 in dermatology and the possibility of enhancing therapeutic efficacy through ABCB1 manipulation.

Abstract
Background: IM, a strong and selective TKI, has been approved as the front line of treatment in CML patients. In spite of satisfactory results of imatinib in the treatment of patients with CML, patients with treatment failure or suboptimal response developed resistance that might be because of pharmacogenetic variants. This study attempted to evaluate the influence of ABCB1 gene polymorphisms and smoking on CML risk and resistance to imatinib. Methods: ABCB1 (c.1236C>T, c.3435C>T) polymorphisms were genotyped in 98 CML patients and 100 sex- and age-matched healthy subjects by PCR-RFLP method, followed by sequencing. The patients were evaluated for cytogenetic response by the standard chromosome banding analysis in regular intervals. Results: Our results showed that c.1236CC genotype was significantly associated with imatinib resistance (OR = 3.94; p = 0.038). Analysis of the joint of SNP-smoking combination showed that smokers with c.1236TT/CT and c.1236CC genotypes had the increased risk of CML (OR = 6.04; p = 0.00 and OR = 4.95, p = 0.005) and treatment failure (OR = 5.36, p = 0.001 and OR = 15.7, p = 0.002), respectively. Smokers with c.3435TT/CT and c.3435CC genotypes also displayed the elevated risk of CML development (OR = 6.01, p = 0 and OR = 4.36, p = 0.011) and IM resistance (OR = 5.61, p = 0.001 and OR = 13.58, p = 0.002), respectively. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that c.1236CC genotype has clinical importance in the prediction of treatment outcome with IM, and smoking could have a synergistic role in CML risk and IM resistance.

Abstract
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a common autoimmune blistering skin disease that mainly affects elderly patients. Although BP risk is strongly influenced by age, genetic factors are also important determinants of this disease. Many genomic regions, especially in the HLA-II region, have been found to influence BP susceptibility through targeted sequencing studies. However, the relationship between non-HLA regions and BP susceptibility remains poorly understood and the identification of functional variants and key genes within these association regions remains a major challenge. In this review, we summarize the genetic predisposition to BP through an overview of the research history in this field.

Abstract
1. Overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp, encoded by MDR1) mediates resistance to multiple immunosuppressors. Several common MDR1 variants (1236C > T, 2677G > T, 3435C > T) impact the efflux activity of P-gp-mediated substrates. We assessed the effect of these polymorphisms on the sensitivity, intracellular accumulation, and efflux of tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, sirolimus and everolimus in transfected LLC-PK1 cells. 2. LLC-PK1 cell lines were transfected with empty vector (pcDNA3.1) and recombinant MDR1T-T-T, MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T and MDR1C-G-C vectors, respectively and further screened in the presence of puromycin. The IC50 values, intracellular accumulation, and apparent permeability ratios of tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, sirolimus and everolimus were evaluated. 3. MDR1 overexpression increased the resistance of LLC-PK1 cells to tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, sirolimus and everolimus. The resistance of cells expressing MDR1C-G-C wild-type haplotypes to tacrolimus were increased compared to MDR1T-T-T, MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T variant haplotypes. The efflux ability of P-gp-mediated tacrolimus in cells transfected with MDR1C-G-C was higher than cells overexpressing MDR1T-T-T, MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T variant haplotypes. In addition, the resistance of cells expressing MDR1C-G-C wild-type haplotypes to sirolimus were increased compared to MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T variant haplotypes. The efflux ability of P-gp-mediated sirolimus in cells overexpressing MDR1C-G-C was higher than cells transfected with MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T variant haplotypes. 4. These findings indicate that wild-type MDR1 exports tacrolimus and sirolimus more efficiency than the MDR1T-T-T, MDR1C-T-T, MDR1C-G-T variant protein. This observation indicates that 1236C > T, 2677G > T, 3435C > T variant haplotypes drastically decrease the efflux ability of P-gp-mediated tacrolimus and sirolimus in a substrate-specific manner.
