Sileshi T, Telele NF, Burkley V, Makonnen E, Aklillu E. Correlation of N-acetyltransferase 2 genotype and acetylation status with plasma isoniazid concentration and its metabolic ratio in ethiopian tuberculosis patients. Sci Rep 2023; 13:11438. [PMID: 37454203 PMCID: PMC10349800 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-38716-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Unfavorable treatment outcomes for tuberculosis (TB) treatment might result from altered plasma exposure to antitubercular drugs in TB patients. The present study investigated the distribution of the N-Acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) genotype, isoniazid acetylation status, genotype-phenotype concordance of NAT2, and isoniazid plasma exposure among Ethiopian tuberculosis patients. Blood samples were collected from newly diagnosed TB patients receiving a fixed dose combination of first-line antitubercular drugs daily. Genotyping of NAT2 was done using TaqMan drug metabolism assay. Isoniazid and its metabolite concentration were determined using validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). A total of 120 patients (63 male and 57 female) were enrolled in this study. The mean daily dose of isoniazid was 4.71 mg/kg. The frequency of slow, intermediate, and fast NAT2 acetylators genotypes were 74.2%, 22.4%, and 3.3% respectively. The overall median isoniazid maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) was 4.77 µg/mL and the AUC0-7 h was 11.21 µg.h/mL. The median Cmax in slow, intermediate, and fast acetylators were 5.65, 3.44, and 2.47 μg/mL, respectively. The median AUC0-7 h hour in slow, intermediate, and fast acetylators were 13.1, 6.086, and 3.73 mg•h/L, respectively. The majority (87.5%) of the study participants achieved isoniazid Cmax of above 3 µg/mL, which is considered a lower limit for a favorable treatment outcome. There is 85% concordance between the NAT2 genotype and acetylation phenotypes. NAT2 genotype, female sex, and dose were independent predictors of Cmax and AUC0-7 h (p < 0.001). Our finding revealed that there is a high frequency of slow NAT2 genotypes. The plasma Cmax of isoniazid was higher in the female and slow acetylators genotype group. The overall target plasma isoniazid concentrations in Ethiopian tuberculosis patients were achieved in the majority of the patients. Therefore, it is important to monitor adverse drug reactions and the use of a higher dose of isoniazid should be closely monitored.

Abstract
Severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCAR) such as the Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) and drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) can be induced by a plethora of medications. The field of pharmacogenomics aims to prevent severe adverse drug reactions by using our knowledge of the inherited or acquired genetic risk of drug metabolizing enzymes, drug targets, or the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genotype. Dermatologists are experts in the diagnosis and management of severe cutaneous adverse drug reactions (SCAR) in both the inpatient and outpatient setting. However, most dermatologists in the US have not focused on the prevention of SCAR. Therefore, this paper presents a case series and review of the literature highlighting salient examples of how dermatologists can apply pharmacogenomics in the diagnosis and especially in the prevention of SCAR induced by allopurinol and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, two commonly prescribed medications.

Expression and genotype-dependent catalytic activity of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and its modulation by Sirtuin 1. Biochem Pharmacol 2018; 156:340-347.

Abstract
N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) catalyzes the biotransformation of numerous arylamine and hydrazine drugs and carcinogens. Genetic polymorphisms of NAT2 modify drug efficacy and toxicity and susceptibility to diseases such as cancer and type 2 diabetes. Expression of NAT2 has been documented in the liver and gastrointestinal tract but not in other tissues. Deacetylation of cytosolic proteins by sirtuins is a post-translational modification important in regulatory networks of diverse cellular processes. The aim of the present study was to investigate NAT2 expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and the effects of NAT2 genotype and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). Both NAT2 and SIRT1 proteins were expressed on PBMC. Their expression was more prevalent on CD3+ compared to CD19+ and CD56+ cell populations. N-acetylation capacity of PBMC exhibited a NAT2 gene-dose response toward the N-acetylation of isoniazid. Subjects with rapid NAT2 genotype showed an apparent Vmax of 42.1 ± 2.4; intermediate NAT2 genotypes an apparent Vmax of 22.6 ± 2.2; and slow acetylator NAT2 genotypes an apparent Vmax of 19.9 ± 1.7 nM acetyl-isoniazid/24 h/million cells. The N-acetylation capacity of NAT2 in the presence of SIRT1 enhancer was significantly decreased (p < 0.001), conversely, the transient silencing of SIRT1 resulted in an increase of N-acetylation capacity (p < 0.001). These findings are the first report of NAT2 genotype-dependent expression on PBMC and post-translational modification by SIRT1. These findings constitute a substantial advance in our understanding of human N-acetyltransferase expression and a new much less invasive method for measurement of human NAT2 expression and phenotype.

Abstract
The use of flupirtine, an analgesic, has been restricted in European countries because it causes liver injury in rare cases. Flupirtine is primarily metabolized to D-13223, an acetylamino form. In the process of D-13223 formation, it has been hypothesized that a reactive metabolite is formed which may be involved in flupirtine hepatotoxicity. The purpose of this study was to identify the potential reactive metabolite and the responsible enzymes in the human liver to get a clue to the mechanism of hepatotoxicity. Using recombinant enzymes, we found that D-13223 was formed from flupirtine via hydrolysis by carboxylesterase 2 (CES2) and subsequent acetylation by N-acetyltransferase (NAT) 2. A conjugate of N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC), a nucleophile, was detected by incubation of flupirtine with CES2, and the conjugate formation in human liver microsomes was inhibited by CES2 inhibitors, indicating that a reactive metabolite, which may be a quinone diimine, was produced in the process of CES2-mediated hydrolysis of flupirtine. The formation of the NAC conjugate in liver S9 samples from NAT2 slow acetylators was significantly higher than that from NAT2 rapid/intermediate acetylators, indicating that NAT2 could function as a detoxification enzyme for flupirtine. CES2-overexpressing HepG2 cells showed remarkable lactate dehydrogenase leakage under flupirtine treatment, while no cytotoxicity was observed in control cells, suggesting that the reactive metabolite formed by CES2-mediated hydrolysis of flupirtine would be a trigger of hepatotoxicity. NAT2 slow acetylators with high CES2 activity could be highly susceptible to flupirtine-induced liver injury.

NAT2 Gene Polymorphisms in Turkish Patients with Psoriasis Vulgaris. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:3258708.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common, chronic, and autoimmune skin disease. Factors that play a role in etiopathogenesis of psoriasis include internal factors such as genetic susceptibility and immunological factors and external factors such as stress, infection, trauma, drug, and environmental compounds. N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) is a xenobiotic enzyme that is involved in the metabolism of drugs, environmental toxins, and carcinogens. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate whether the variations in the NAT2 gene lead to a predisposition to psoriasis by affecting the enzyme's ability to metabolize drugs and environmental components or not. Three polymorphisms (rs1799929, rs1799930, and rs1799931) in NAT2 gene were genotyped and compared by real-time PCR method in 260 psoriasis vulgaris patients and 200 healthy controls. There was no difference in the genotype distributions and allele frequencies of polymorphisms between psoriasis vulgaris patients and controls. When the effects of polymorphisms on the clinical features of the disease, such as onset age and severity, are assessed, it has been found that rs1799930 and rs1799929 are, respectively, associated with early onset age and severity of the disease. In conclusion, rs1799929, rs1799930, and rs1799931 polymorphisms of the NAT-2 gene do not appear to be a risk factor for the development of psoriasis. Conversely, they may have an effect on either more severe or early onset cases of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) metabolize several drugs including isoniazid. We investigated the effect of genotype, geographical difference, and smoking habit on NAT2 phenotype in Ethiopians. METHODS Genotyping for NAT2 191G > A, 341 T > C, 590G > A, and 857G > A was performed in 163 unrelated healthy Ethiopians (85 living in Ethiopia and 78 living in Sweden). The NAT2 phenotype was determined using caffeine as a probe and log AFMU/(AFMU + 1X + 1 U) urinary metabolic ratio (MR) as an index. RESULTS The frequencies of NAT2*4, *5, *6, *7, and *14 haplotypes were 14.1, 48.5, 30.1, 5.5, and 1.8%, respectively. The frequencies of rapid (NAT2*4/*4), intermediate (heterozygous *4), and slow (no *4 allele) acetylator genotypes were 1.8, 24.6, and 73.6%, respectively. The distribution NAT2 MR was bimodal with 70% being phenotypically slow acetylators. NAT2 genotype (p < 0.0001) and country of residence (p = 0.004) independently predicted NAT2 phenotype. Controlling for the effect of genotype, ethnic Ethiopians living in Ethiopia had significantly higher NAT2 MR than those living in Sweden (p = 0.006). NAT2 genotype-phenotype concordance rate was 75%. Distinct country-of-residence-based genotype-phenotype discordance was observed. The proportion of phenotypically determined rapid acetylators was significantly higher and slow acetylators was lower in Ethiopians living in Ethiopia (39% rapid, 61% slow) than in Sweden (20% rapid, 80% slow). Sex and smoking had no significant effect on NAT2 MR. CONCLUSIONS We report a high prevalence of NAT 2 slow acetylators in Ethiopians and a conditional NAT2 genotype-phenotype discordance implicating a partial phenotype conversion and metabolic adaptation. Gene-environment interactions regulate NAT2 phenotype.

Abstract
Most individuals adjust their caffeine intake according to the objective and subjective effects induced by the methylxanthine. However, to reach the desired effects, the quantity of caffeine consumed varies largely among individuals. It has been known for decades that the metabolism, clearance, and pharmacokinetics of caffeine is affected by many factors such as age, sex and hormones, liver disease, obesity, smoking, and diet. Caffeine also interacts with many medications. All these factors will be reviewed in the present document and discussed in light of the most recent data concerning the genetic variability affecting caffeine levels and effects at the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic levels that both critically drive the level of caffeine consumption. The pharmacokinetics of caffeine are highly variable among individuals due to a polymorphism at the level of the CYP1A2 isoform of cytochrome P450, which metabolizes 95% of the caffeine ingested. Moreover there is a polymorphism at the level of another critical enzyme, N-acetyltransferase 2. At the pharmacodynamic level, there are several polymorphisms at the main brain target of caffeine, the adenosine A2A receptor or ADORA2. Genetic studies, including genome-wide association studies, identified several loci critically involved in caffeine consumption and its consequences on sleep, anxiety, and potentially in neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. We start reaching a better picture on how a multiplicity of biologic mechanisms seems to drive the levels of caffeine consumption, although much more knowledge is still required to understand caffeine consumption and effects on body functions.

Abstract
The concomitant use of herb and prescription medications is increasing globally. Herb-drug interactions are therefore a clinically important problem. Yokukansan (YKS), a Japanese traditional herbal medicine, is one of the most frequently used herbal medicines. It is effective for treating the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. We investigated the potential effects of YKS on drug-metabolizing enzyme activities in humans. An open-label repeat-dose study was conducted in 26 healthy Japanese male volunteers (age: 22.7±2.3 years) with no history of smoking. An 8-h urine sample was collected after a 150-mg dose of caffeine and a 30-mg dose of dextromethorphan before and after the administration of YKS (2.5 g, twice a day for 1 week). The activities of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, CYP2D6, CYP3A, xanthine oxidase (XO) and N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) were assessed based on the urinary metabolic indices of caffeine and dextromethorphan, and the urinary excretion ratio of 6β-hydroxycortisol to cortisol. There were no statistically significant differences in the activities of the examined enzymes before or after the 7-d administration of YKS. Although further studies assessing the influence of YKS on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the substrates of the drug-metabolizing enzymes are needed to verify the present results, YKS is unlikely that a pharmacokinetic interaction will occur with concomitantly administered medications that are predominantly metabolized by the CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP3A, XO and NAT2.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer (EC) is one of the most common malignancies in low- and medium-income countries and represents a disease of public health importance because of its poor prognosis and high mortality rate in these regions. The striking variation in the prevalence of EC among different ethnic groups suggests a significant contribution of population-specific environmental and dietary factors to susceptibility to the disease. Although individuals within a demarcated geographical area are exposed to the same environment and share similar dietary habits, not all of them will develop the disease; thus genetic susceptibility to environmental risk factors may play a key role in the development of EC. A wide range of xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes are responsible for the metabolism of carcinogens introduced via the diet or inhaled from the environment. Such dietary or environmental carcinogens can bind to DNA, resulting in mutations that may lead to carcinogenesis. Genes involved in the biosynthesis of these enzymes are all subject to genetic polymorphisms that can lead to altered expression or activity of the encoded proteins. Genetic polymorphisms may, therefore, act as molecular biomarkers that can provide important predictive information about carcinogenesis. The aim of this review is to discuss our current knowledge on the genetic risk factors associated with the development of EC in different populations; it addresses mainly the topics of genetic polymorphisms, gene-environment interactions, and carcinogenesis. We have reviewed the published data on genetic polymorphisms of enzymes involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics and discuss some of the potential gene-environment interactions underlying esophageal carcinogenesis. The main enzymes discussed in this review are the glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), N-acetyltransferases (NATs), cytochrome P450s (CYPs), sulfotransferases (SULTs), UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), and epoxide hydrolases (EHs), all of which have key roles in the detoxification of environmental and dietary carcinogens. Finally, we discuss recent advances in the study of genetic polymorphisms associated with EC risk, specifically with regard to genome-wide association studies, and examine possible challenges of case-control studies that need to be addressed to better understand the interaction between genetic and environmental factors in esophageal carcinogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implication of pharmacogenetic variations and efavirenz pharmacokinetics in concomitant efavirenz based antiviral therapy and anti-tubercular drug induced liver injury (DILI) has not been yet studied. We performed a prospective case-control association study to identify the incidence, pharmacogenetic, pharmacokinetic and biochemical predictors for anti-tubercular and antiretroviral drugs induced liver injury (DILI) in HIV and tuberculosis (TB) co-infected patients. METHODS AND FINDINGS Newly diagnosed treatment naïve TB-HIV co-infected patients (n = 353) were enrolled to receive efavirenz based ART and rifampicin based anti-TB therapy, and assessed clinically and biochemically for DILI up to 56 weeks. Quantification of plasma efavirenz and 8-hydroxyefaviernz levels and genotyping for NAT2, CYP2B6, CYP3A5, ABCB1, UGT2B7 and SLCO1B1 genes were done. The incidence of DILI and identification of predictors was evaluated using survival analysis and the Cox Proportional Hazards Model. The incidence of DILI was 30.0%, or 14.5 per 1000 person-week, and that of severe was 18.4%, or 7.49 per 1000 person-week. A statistically significant association of DILI with being of the female sex (p = 0.001), higher plasma efavirenz level (p = 0.009), efavirenz/8-hydroxyefavirenz ratio (p = 0.036), baseline AST (p = 0.022), ALT (p = 0.014), lower hemoglobin (p = 0.008), and serum albumin (p = 0.007), NAT2 slow-acetylator genotype (p = 0.039) and ABCB1 3435TT genotype (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION We report high incidence of anti-tubercular and antiretroviral DILI in Ethiopian patients. Between patient variability in systemic efavirenz exposure and pharmacogenetic variations in NAT2, CYP2B6 and ABCB1 genes determines susceptibility to DILI in TB-HIV co-infected patients. Close monitoring of plasma efavirenz level and liver enzymes during early therapy and/or genotyping practice in HIV clinics is recommended for early identification of patients at risk of DILI.
