[PMID: 38813106 PMCID: PMC11134176 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1380613] [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: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Chronic pain is a major socioeconomic burden in the Mediterranean region. However, we noticed an under-representation of these populations in the pharmacogenetics of pain management studies. In this context, we aimed 1) to decipher the pharmacogenetic variant landscape among Mediterranean populations compared to worldwide populations in order to identify therapeutic biomarkers for personalized pain management and 2) to better understand the biological process of pain management through in silico investigation of pharmacogenes pathways. Materials and Methods We collected genes and variants implicated in pain response using the Prisma guidelines from literature and PharmGK database. Next, we extracted these genes from genotyping data of 829 individuals. Then, we determined the variant distribution among the studied populations using multivariate (MDS) and admixture analysis with R and STRUCTURE software. We conducted a Chi2 test to compare the interethnic frequencies of the identified variants. We used SNPinfo web server, miRdSNP database to identify miRNA-binding sites. In addition, we investigated the functions of the identified genes and variants using pathway enrichment analysis and annotation tools. Finally, we performed docking analysis to assess the impact of variations on drug interactions. Results We identified 63 variants implicated in pain management. MDS analysis revealed that Mediterranean populations are genetically similar to Mexican populations and divergent from other populations. STRUCTURE analysis showed that Mediterranean populations are mainly composed of European ancestry. We highlighted differences in the minor allele frequencies of three variants (rs633, rs4680, and rs165728) located in the COMT gene. Moreover, variant annotation revealed ten variants with potential miRNA-binding sites. Finally, protein structure and docking analysis revealed that two missense variants (rs4680 and rs6267) induced a decrease in COMT protein activity and affinity for dopamine. Conclusion Our findings revealed that Mediterranean populations diverge from other ethnic groups. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of pain-related pathways and miRNAs to better implement these markers as predictors of analgesic responses in the Mediterranean region.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This prospective, observational study was designed to assess the phenotype variation of the genes associated with pain and opioid use following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in comparison to psycho-social elements. METHODS Preoperative demographic data and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-43 scores were obtained on 305 elective TKA patients. Patient visual analog scale pain scores and opioid use were extracted from the hospital record. Following discharge, participants completed a daily log of visual analog scale pain score, and medications used over 30 days. Pharmacogenomic testing was performed for three genes, CYP2D6, COMT, and OPRM1, which are involved in the opioid pathway and pain modulation. RESULTS Other than increased pain seen in the COMT high activity group while in the hospital, none of the phenotype variations of the three genes were significantly associated with the participants' pain or opioid use. The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System-43 domains of pain interference and anxiety were significantly associated with pain and opioid use using multiple logistic regression. CONCLUSIONS Pharmacogenomic testing in this study was not predictive of pain and opioid use following TKA compared with psycho-social variables.

Moderating effects of preoperative knee pain and pain catastrophizing on the relation between COMT rs4680 genotypes and chronic postsurgical pain in total knee arthroplasty patients. Anaesth Crit Care Pain Med 2024; 43:101361. [PMID: 38408640 DOI: 10.1016/j.accpm.2024.101361] [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: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene, responsible for encoding an enzyme crucial in the metabolism of catecholamines, is known to play a significant role in pain perception. Polymorphisms within this gene, particularly the COMT rs4680 genotypes, have been linked to various acute pain phenotypes. This prospective cohort study examines interactions among the genetic polymorphism COMT rs4680 genotypes, preoperative knee pain, and pain catastrophizing in chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) at 3, 6, and 12 months post-total knee arthroplasty (TKA). STUDY DESIGN A total of 280 patients undergoing primary unilateral TKA participated, sharing demographic details, preoperative knee pain levels, psychological variables (pain catastrophizing), and COMT rs4680 genotyping via venous blood samples. Telephone interviews at specified intervals enabled the application of binary logistic regressions and interaction models. RESULTS Significant influences of preoperative knee pain and pain catastrophizing on postsurgical outcomes were observed. Specifically, at the first time point (T1, 3 months post-TKA), a notable moderation effect was identified in preoperative knee pain (R2 change = 0.026, p = 0.026). The Johnson-Neyman regions of significance (RoS) indicated these moderation effects were significant above a threshold of 17.18 (p = 0.05), accounting for 26.4%. At the third time point (T3, 12 months post-TKA), a complex three-way interaction among genotypes (GG, GA, and AA carriers) was evident, resulting in an R2 change of 0.051 (p = 0.009). Here, the RoS for pain catastrophizing was above 32.74 for 30.5% of GG genotype carriers, above 22.38 for 50.8% of GA carriers, and below 11.94 for 63.2% of AA carriers. CONCLUSION This study illuminates the significant role of the COMT Val158Met rs4680 polymorphism in susceptibility to prolonged pain following TKA. It also elucidates how these genetic genotypes interplay with preoperative knee pain and pain catastrophizing. Such intricate genetic-psychological-pain relationships necessitate additional investigation to confirm these findings and potentially guide post-TKA pain management strategies.

Abstract
Genetic risk factors for chronic postsurgical pain in adults have been established, but little is known whether the same associations exist in children. It is even less clear how much influence single nucleotide polymorphisms can exert on the phenotypic expression of chronic postsurgical pain in children in general. To this effect, a search was made for original articles which met the following criteria: evaluation of postsurgical pain in children with known genetic mutations or, conversely, evaluation of atypical pain trajectories of postsurgical children assessing for possible genetic mutations that may explain the phenotype. All titles and abstracts retrieved were reviewed for suitability for inclusion. The references of the selected articles were also checked for additional relevant papers. To assess the transparency and quality of the genetic studies both STrengthening the REporting of Genetic Association studies scores and Q-Genie scores were applied. Overall, there is a paucity of information regarding the link between genetic mutations and eventual chronic postsurgical pain development although there is some information on acute postoperative pain. Evidence has shown that the contribution of genetic risk factors to chronic postsurgical pain development appears to be minor, with its clinical relevance yet to be described. More advanced techniques in systems biology (proteomics, transcriptomics) suggest promising avenues for investigating the disease.

Abstract
Chronic pain begins with acute pain. Physicians tend to classify pain by duration (acute vs chronic) and mechanism (nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic). Although this taxonomy may facilitate diagnosis and documentation, such categories are to some degree arbitrary constructs, with significant overlap in terms of mechanisms and treatments. In clinical practice, there are myriad different definitions for chronic pain and a substantial portion of chronic pain involves mixed phenotypes. Classification of pain based on acuity and mechanisms informs management at all levels and constitutes a critical part of guidelines and treatment for chronic pain care. Yet specialty care is often siloed, with advances in understanding lagging years behind in some areas in which these developments should be at the forefront of clinical practice. For example, in perioperative pain management, enhanced recovery protocols are not standardized and tend to drive treatment without consideration of mechanisms, which in many cases may be incongruent with personalized medicine and mechanism-based treatment. In this educational document, we discuss mechanisms and classification of pain as it pertains to commonly performed surgical procedures. Our goal is to provide a clinical reference for the acute pain physician to facilitate pain management decision-making (both diagnosis and therapy) in the perioperative period.

Abstract
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) have been widely studied as a multifactorial entity, being of female gender the strongest risk factor. Reported PONV incidence in female surgical populations is extremely variable among randomized clinical trials. In this narrative review, we intend to summarize the incidence, independent predictors, pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions for PONV reported in recently published clinical trials carried out in female patients undergoing breast and gynecologic surgery, as well as the implications of the anesthetic agents on the incidence of PONV. A literature search of manuscripts describing PONV management in female surgical populations (breast surgery and gynecologic surgery) was carried out in PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase databases. Postoperative nausea and vomiting incidence were highly variable in patients receiving placebo or no prophylaxis among RCTs whereas consistent results were observed in patients receiving 1 or 2 prophylactic interventions for PONV. Despite efforts made, a considerable number of female patients still experienced significant PONV. It is critical for the anesthesia provider to be aware that the coexistence of independent risk factors such as the level of sex hormones (pre- and postmenopausal), preoperative anxiety or depression, pharmacogenomic pleomorphisms, and ethnicity further enhances the probability of experiencing PONV in female patients. Future RCTs should closely assess the overall risk of PONV in female patients considering patient- and surgery-related factors, and the level of compliance with current guidelines for prevention and management of PONV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To review the available results for genetic influences on pain syndrome development. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: In the period from 2009 to 2020, a total of 45 research papers describing the key points of genetic influences on pain mechanisms in both adults and children were published in Ukrainian and English and they are now included in the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, and Google Scholar research databases. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Pain is a comprehensive characteristic of a person; therefore, it is inevitable that several genes with little individual effect interact with each other and environmental factors, influencing pain susceptibility and chronic pain syndrome manifestation. This requires searching for biomarkers for diagnosing and predicting the development of acute and chronic pain syndromes, especially in pediatric practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adequate opioid prescribing is critical for therapeutic success of pain management. Despite the widespread use of opioids, optimized opioid therapy remains unresolved with risk of accidental lethal overdosing. With the emergence of accumulating evidence linking genetic variation to opioid response, pharmacogenetic based treatment recommendations have been proposed. OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is to evaluate pharmacogenetic evidence and provide an overview on genes involved in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of opioids. METHODS For this review, a systematic literature search of published articles was used in PubMed®, with no language restriction and between the time period of January 2000 to December 2020. We reviewed randomized clinical studies, study cohorts and case reports that investigated the influence of genetic variants on selected opioid pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. In addition, we reviewed current CPIC clinical recommendations for pharmacogenetic testing. RESULTS Results of this review indicate consistent evidence supporting the association between selected genetic variants of CYP2D6 for opioid metabolism. CPIC guidelines include recommendations that indicate the avoidance of tramadol use, in addition to codeine, in CYP2D6 poor metabolizers and ultrarapid metabolizers, and to monitor intermediate metabolizers for less-than-optimal response. While there is consistent evidence for OPRM1 suggesting increased postoperative morphine dosing requirements in A118G G-allele carriers, the clinical relevance remains limited. CONCLUSION There is emerging evidence of clinical relevance of CYP2D6 and, to a lesser extent, OPRM1 polymorphism in personalized opioid drug dosing. As a result, first clinics have started to implement pharmacogenetic guidelines for CYP2D6 and codeine.

Abstract
Previous studies have identified catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), as a key enzyme influencing sympathetic function. Although the COMT SNP rs4680 and rs4818, are well-studied, little is known about their influence on cancer-related fatigue (CrF) and placebo response. In this study, we examined whether genetic variation in COMT, at the functional SNP rs4680 and linked rs4818, influenced open-label placebo (OLP) responses found in cancer survivors reporting moderate to severe CrF. We randomized cancer survivors (N = 74) reporting moderate-to-severe CrF to receive OLP or to treatment-as-usual (TAU) and assessed if rs4680 and rs4818 were associated with changes in fatigue severity and fatigue-distressed quality of life. At the end of the initial 21 days, the treatments were crossed over and both groups were re-assessed. Participants with the rs4680 high-activity G-allele (G/G or G/A) or rs4818 C/G genotypes reported significant decreases in fatigue severity and improvements in fatigue-distressed quality of life. The COMT rs4818 findings replicated findings in a similar study of OLP in cancer fatigue. Clinical Trial Registration: www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier: NCT02522988.

Research design considerations for chronic pain prevention clinical trials: IMMPACT recommendations. Pain Rep 2021; 6:e895.

Abstract
Although certain risk factors can identify individuals who are most likely to develop chronic pain, few interventions to prevent chronic pain have been identified. To facilitate the identification of preventive interventions, an IMMPACT meeting was convened to discuss research design considerations for clinical trials investigating the prevention of chronic pain. We present general design considerations for prevention trials in populations that are at relatively high risk for developing chronic pain. Specific design considerations included subject identification, timing and duration of treatment, outcomes, timing of assessment, and adjusting for risk factors in the analyses. We provide a detailed examination of 4 models of chronic pain prevention (ie, chronic postsurgical pain, postherpetic neuralgia, chronic low back pain, and painful chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy). The issues discussed can, in many instances, be extrapolated to other chronic pain conditions. These examples were selected because they are representative models of primary and secondary prevention, reflect persistent pain resulting from multiple insults (ie, surgery, viral infection, injury, and toxic or noxious element exposure), and are chronically painful conditions that are treated with a range of interventions. Improvements in the design of chronic pain prevention trials could improve assay sensitivity and thus accelerate the identification of efficacious interventions. Such interventions would have the potential to reduce the prevalence of chronic pain in the population. Additionally, standardization of outcomes in prevention clinical trials will facilitate meta-analyses and systematic reviews and improve detection of preventive strategies emerging from clinical trials.

Abstract
Aim: Investigate the potential role of OPRM1 (mu-opioid receptor) and COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase enzyme) polymorphisms in postoperative acute, chronic and experimental thermal pain. Methods: A secondary analysis of 125 adult cardiac surgery patients that were randomized between fentanyl and remifentanil during surgery and genotyped. Results: Patients in the fentanyl group with the COMT high-pain sensitivity haplotype required less postoperative morphine compared with the average-pain sensitivity haplotype (19.4 [16.5; 23.0] vs 34.6 [26.2; 41.4]; p = 0.00768), but not to the low-pain sensitivity group (30.1 [19.1; 37.7]; p = 0.13). No association was found between COMT haplotype and other pain outcomes or OPRM1 polymorphisms and the different pain modalities. Conclusion: COMT haplotype appears to explain part of the variability in acute postoperative pain in adult cardiac surgery patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioids are widely used as an analgesic for the treatment of moderate to severe pain. However, there are interindividual variabilities in opioid response. Current evidence suggests that these variabilities can be attributed to single nucleotide polymorphisms in genes involved in opioid pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics. Knowledge of these genetic factors through pharamacogenetic (PGx) testing can help clinicians to more consistently prescribe opioids that can provide patients with maximal clinical benefit and minimal risk of adverse effects. AIM The research outlined in this literature review identifies variants involved in opioid PGx, which may be an important tool to achieving the goal of personalized pain management. RESULTS Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT), adenosine triphosphate binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1), opioid receptor mu 1 (OPRM1), and opioid receptor delta 1 (OPRD1) are all important genes involved in opioid drug response, side effect profile and risk of dependence; these are important genetic factors that should be included in potential opioid PGx tests for pain management. CONCLUSIONS Employing a PGx-guided strategy for prescribing opioids can improve response rate, reduce side effects and increase adherence to treatment plans for pain; more research is needed to explore opioid-related PGx factors for the development and validation of an opioid genetic panel. Optimal prescriptions could also provide healthcare payers with beneficial savings, while reducing the risk of propagating the current opioid crisis.

Abstract
Postoperative pain and opioid use are major challenges in perioperative medicine. Pain perception and its response to opioid use are multi-faceted and include pharmacological, psychological, and genetic components. Precision medicine is a unique approach to individualized health care in which decisions in management are based on genetics, lifestyle, and environment of each person. Genetic variations can have an impact on the perception of pain and response to treatment. This can have an effect on pain management in both acute and chronic settings. Although there is currently not enough evidence for making recommendations about genetic testing to guide pain management in the acute care setting, there are some known polymorphisms that play a role in surgical pain and opioid-related postoperative adverse outcomes. In this review, we describe the potential use of pharmacogenomics (PGx) for improving perioperative pain management. We first review a number of genotypes that have shown correlations with pain and opioid use and then describe the importance of PGx-guided analgesic protocols and implementation of screening in a preoperative evaluation clinical setting.

Abstract
Underlying genetic influences may affect perinatal pain, depression, or both. We
investigated the role of 59 single-nucleotide polymorphisms on 20 quantitative
traits measured in perinatal women. Moreover, 183 pregnant women (28–37 weeks’
gestation) were prospectively genotyped for single-nucleotide polymorphisms with
known prior associations with either pain or depression in nonpregnant
populations. Prenatal saliva samples were collected. Phenotypic data were
gathered during prenatal, labor and delivery, and postpartum (six weeks and
three months) periods, capturing labor pain, Edinburgh Postnatal Depression
Score, and Brief Pain Inventories. Following quality control, genotypes were
used as predictors and phenotypes as dependent variables in multiple linear
regression analyses to detect associations. Three statistical models were
tested: additive allele effects, deviation from dominant allele effects, and the
joint test of both. rs4633 (a synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphism in
COMT) associated with “pain right now” scores at six weeks
postpartum. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms rs1135349 (a single-nucleotide
polymorphism within a small noncoding RNA that has many prior associations for
depression) and rs7548151 (intronic in ASTN1) were associated
with the maximum pain unpleasantness score experienced during labor (a measure
of the emotional valence of labor pain), controlling for the Holm–Bonferroni
family-wise error rate. Sensory dimensions of labor pain (i.e., pain intensity)
and postpartum depression scores were not associated with genotyped
single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Identifying genomic components of these
perinatal complex disorders may produce insights into relevant pathways or novel
treatment options.

Abstract
The catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met polymorphism has been associated with alterations in pain perception, but the influence of the polymorphism on pain perception in patients with chronic pain receiving daily opioid therapy has not been previously reported. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met polymorphism on heat pain perception in a cohort of adults receiving daily opioid therapy for chronic pain. Adults with chronic pain consecutively admitted to an outpatient pain rehabilitation program who met inclusion criteria and were receiving daily opioid therapy were recruited for study participation (N = 142). Individuals were genotyped for catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met (rs4680), and the polymorphism was analyzed using an additive and codominant genotype models. The distribution of the Val158Met genotypes was 25% for Val/Val, 41% for Val/Met and 34% for Met/Met (Hardy-Weinberg, P > 0.05). A main effect of genotype was observed for heat pain perception ( P = 0.028). Under the codominant model of allele effects, exploratory post hoc pairwise comparisons adjusted for morphine equivalent dose and pain catastrophizing demonstrated that individuals with the Val/Met genotype were hyperalgesic compared to individuals with the Val/Val ( P = 0.039) and Met/Met ( P = 0.023) genotypes. No significant association was observed between heat pain perception and genotype under the additive model of allele effects. Among patients with chronic pain who were receiving daily opioids, the Val/Met genotype was associated with hyperalgesia using a measure of heat pain perception that has been previously indicative of opioid-induced hyperalgesia in other heterogeneous samples of adults with chronic pain. This study contributes to the emerging understanding of how catechol-O-methyltransferase activity affects pain perception in the context of daily opioid use, and these findings may be useful in the design of future trials aimed at investigating the potential efficacy of ß-2 adrenergic receptor antagonism for opioid-induced hyperalgesia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The main objectives of this study were to assess the effects of cathechol-O-methyl-transferase (COMT) rs4680 and μ-opioid receptor rs1799971 polymorphisms alone or genotype combinations on chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP), acute pain, and analgesic consumption after elective cesarean delivery in a Chinese cohort. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two hundred sixty-six patients undergoing elective cesarean delivery with a Pfannenstiel incision under spinal anesthesia were enrolled in this prospective, observational study. All patients were screened for rs4680 and rs1799971 using a peripheral venous blood sample of DNA. Postoperative pain relief was provided by IV patient-controlled analgesia with sufentanyl and tramadol for 48 hours postoperatively. Postoperative pain scores and analgesic consumption were assessed, and CPSP was evaluated 3 months after surgery in all patients. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients (29/266; 10.9%) developed CPSP at 3 months after surgery. The risk factors for CPSP included previous cesarean delivery and higher analgesic consumptions at 24 hours and 48 hours postoperatively (P=0.032, 0.015, and 0.008, reapectively). No associations were found between CPSP and a single rs4680 and rs1799971 polymorphism, or their combinations (P>0.05). In contrast, patients with rs1799971 GG required higher patient-controlled analgesics at 24 hours and 48 hours postoperatively compared with those with other genotypes (GG>AG>AA). However, no significant effects of interactions between the 2 single nucleotide polymorphisms on analgesic consumption were observed. DISCUSSION Our results indicate that cathechol-O-methyl-transferase rs4860 and μ-opioid receptor rs1799971 may not contribute to CPSP development after cesarean delivery. The genotype of rs1799971 affects postcesarean analgesic requirement, while the rs4680 do not. Additional larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
A systematic literature search was performed to identify studies that reported risk factors for persistent pain after childbirth. Many studies have sought to identify risk factors for post-delivery pain in different populations, using different methodologies and different outcome variables. Studies of several different but interrelated post-partum pain syndromes have been conducted. Factors strongly and specifically associated with persistent incisional scar pain after Caesarean delivery include a coexisting persistent pain problem in another part of the body and severe acute postoperative pain. For persistent vaginal and perineal pain, operative vaginal delivery and the magnitude of perineal trauma have been consistently linked. History of pregnancy-related and pre-pregnancy back pain and heavier body weight are robust risk factors for persistent back pain after pregnancy. Unfortunately, limitations, particularly small samples and lack of a priori sample size calculation designed to detect specific effect sizes for risk of persistent pain outcomes, preclude definitive conclusions about many other predictors and the strength of outcome associations. In future studies, assessments of specific phenotypes using a rigorous analysis with appropriate predetermined sample sizes and validated instruments are needed to allow elucidation of stronger and reliable associations. Interventional studies targeting the most robustly associated, modifiable risk factors, such as acute post-partum pain, may lead to solutions for the prevention and treatment of these common problems that impact a large population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is a serious problem. Clinical and psychological variables have not been able to explain all observed variance in prevalence and severity of CPSP. The first objective is to determine the association between genetic polymorphisms and the prevalence of CPSP after hysterectomy. The second objective is to analyze if the implementation of genetic polymorphisms into a previously performed clinical and psychological predictor analysis on the development of CPSP after hysterectomy will improve its discriminatory power. METHODS A prospective multicenter cohort study was performed in patients undergoing hysterectomy for benign indication. Clinical and psychological variables were collected by questionnaires in the week before surgery, post-operatively up to day 4, 3 and 12 months after hysterectomy. Blood was collected and 16 polymorphisms previously suggested to be correlated to CPSP (COMT, GCH1, KCNS1, CACNG2, and OPRM1) were genotyped. Logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Three hundred and forty-five patients were available for the genetic analyses. The prevalence of CPSP 3 months post-operatively was 10.5% and after 12 months 7.9%. The polymorphism rs4818 within the COMT gene was associated with the prevalence of CPSP after 3 months. No polymorphisms were associated with CPSP after 12 months. The addition of rs4818 to the prediction model did not change its discriminatory power significantly. CONCLUSION The rs4818 polymorphism within the COMT gene was associated with the prevalence of CPSP 3 months after hysterectomy, but the implementation of rs4818 into the prediction model did not significantly improve the chance of identifying hysterectomy patients at risk for CPSP.

Abstract
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) is a significant detriment to postsurgical recovery and a risk factor for prolonged opioid use. Emerging evidence suggests the estimated heritability for chronic pain is 45% and that genetic factors partially explain individual susceptibility to CPSP. The aim of this study was to systematically review, assess quality, and summarize the studies in humans that have investigated genetic factors associated with CPSP. We also conducted a meta-analysis to derive a single effect size for evaluable genetic associations with CPSP. Our comprehensive literature search included review of 21 full-text articles evaluating variants of 69 genes for association with CPSP. We found significant gene variant associations reported for variants/haplotypes of 26 genes involved in neurotransmission, pain signaling, immune responses and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, with CPSP. Six variants of 5 genes (COMT: rs4680 and rs6269, OPRM1: rs1799971, GCH1: rs3783641, KCNS1: rs734784 and TNFA: rs1800629), were evaluated by more than one study and were included in the meta-analysis. At rs734784 (A>G) of KCNS1, presence of G allele marginally increased risk of CPSP (Additive genetic model; Odds ratio: 1.511; 95% CI 1-2.284; P value: .050), while the other variants did not withstand meta-analyses criteria. Our findings demonstrate the role of genetic factors with different functions in CPSP, and also emphasize that single genetic factors have small effect sizes in explaining complex conditions like CPSP. Heterogeneity in surgical cohorts, population structure, and outcome definitions, as well as small number of available studies evaluating same variants, limit the meta-analysis. There is a need for large-scale, homogenous, replication studies to validate candidate genes, and understand the underlying biological networks underpinning CPSP. PERSPECTIVE: Our systematic review comprehensively describes 21 studies evaluating genetic association with CPSP, and limitations thereof. A meta-analysis of 6 variants (5 genes) found marginally increased risk for CPSP associated with rs734784 A>G of the potassium voltage-gated channel gene (KCNS1). Understanding genetic predisposition for CPSP will enable prediction and personalized management.

Abstract
Pain is one of the most interdisciplinary clinical symptoms of a disease. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association of COMT gene polymorphism with pain perception in patients after total hip replacement (THR). The study included 195 patients qualified for surgical treatment (THR) due to osteoarthritis. Patients previously undergoing hip replacement subsequently underwent multimodal pain management therapy, in accordance with the recommendations for treating postoperative pain. The intensity of pain was measured three times at pre-defined time intervals: 1.5, 6 and 12 months after hip replacement, using the visual analogue scale. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the COMT gene rs4680: A>G (Val158Met), rs6269: A>G (promoter region), rs4633: C>T (His62His) and rs4818: C>G (Leu136Leu) was genotyped. COMT SNP frequency distribution was analysed. For rs6269 and rs4818, the minor allele was the G allele (38.7 and 38.5%, respectively). It was also observed that rs4633 (T) allele frequency (50%) equalled that of the rs4680 (A) allele (50%). We assessed COMT haplotype frequency in the patients studied. The most frequent haplotype was haplotype M (ATCA) (50%), the rarest haplotype was haplotype R (ATGG), with a frequency of 0.3%. The most frequent diplotype was H/M, which was found in 37.95% of the patients. The frequency of other diplotypes was: M/M-24.10%, H/H-15.90% and L/M-13.33%. The study showed a significant association of rs4818 G allele and equivalent COMT H haplotype with lower sensitivity to pain after hip replacement.

[PMID: 30760877 PMCID: PMC6693985 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-019-0074-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2018] [Revised: 10/30/2018] [Accepted: 12/21/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Acute pain and opioid analgesia demonstrate inter-individual variability and polygenic influence. In 241 children of African American and 277 of European Caucasian ancestry, we sought to replicate select candidate gene associations with morphine dose and postoperative pain and then to estimate dose prediction limits. Twenty-seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from nine genes (ABCB1, ARRB2, COMT, DRD2, KCNJ6, MC1R, OPRD1, OPRM1, and UGT2B7) met selection criteria and were analyzed along with TAOK3. Few associations replicated: morphine dose (mcg/kg) in African American children and ABCB1 rs1045642 (A allele, β = -9.30, 95% CI: -17.25 to -1.35, p = 0.02) and OPRM1 rs1799971 (G allele, β = 23.19, 95% CI: 3.27-43.11, p = 0.02); KCNJ6 rs2211843 and high pain in African American subjects (T allele, OR 2.08, 95% CI: 1.17-3.71, p = 0.01) and in congruent European Caucasian pain phenotypes; and COMT rs740603 for high pain in European Caucasian subjects (A allele, OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.48-0.99, p = 0.046). With age, body mass index, and physical status as covariates, simple top SNP candidate gene models could explain theoretical maximums of 24.2% (European Caucasian) and 14.6% (African American) of morphine dose variances.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The current review will discuss the current literature on genetics of pain and analgesia, with special emphasis on perioperative setting. We will also discuss pharmacogenetics-based management guidelines, current clinical status and future perspectives. RECENT FINDINGS Recent literature suggests that the interindividual variability in pain and postoperative analgesic response is at least in part because of one's genetic make-up. Some of the well characterized polymorphisms that are associated with surgical pain and opioid-related postoperative adverse outcomes are described in catechol-O-methyl transferase, CYP2D6 and μ-opioid receptor (OPRM1), ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1, ABCC3, organic cation transporter 1 genes. Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium has put forth recommendations on CYP2D6 genotype-based opioid selection and dosing. The list of drug-gene pairs studied continue to expand. SUMMARY Pharmacogenetic approach marks the dawn of personalized pain medicine both in perioperative and chronic pain settings.

Abstract
Successful pain management requires the delivery of analgesia with minimal risk of adverse drug reactions. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids remain the mainstay of treatment for the majority of patients. Unfortunately, almost 50% of all patients experience inadequate pain relief and serious side effects. Allelic variants in genes coding for target proteins, transporters and enzymes, which govern analgesic drugs action and their fate in the organism, might explain inter-individual variability in pain severity and in drug-induced pain relief and toxicities. Additionally, it seems that epigenetic changes contribute to the highly variable response to pain treatment. Therefore, pharmacogenomic testing might be a valuable tool for personalization of pain treatment, with a multidisciplinary team approach involved.

Abstract
Genetic variations and gender contribute significantly to the large interpatient variations in opioid-related serious adverse effects and differences in pain relief with other analgesics. Opioids are the most commonly used analgesics to relieve moderate-to-severe postoperative pain. Narrow therapeutic index and unexplained large interpatient variations in opioid-related serious adverse effects and analgesia negatively affect optimal perioperative outcomes. In surgical, experimental, chronic, and neuropathic pain models, females have been reported to have more pain than males. This review focuses on literature evidence of differences in pain relief due to multiple genetic variations and gender of the patient.

Abstract
DESIGN Randomized clinical trial. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of the Val158Met polymorphism with pain and function outcomes in women with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) who received surgery or manual therapy including desensitization manoeuvres of the central nervous system. METHODS A pre-planned secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial investigating the efficacy of manual therapy including desensitization manoeuvres of the central nervous system vs. surgery in 120 women with CTS was conducted. Women were randomized to receive 3 sessions of manual therapy (n = 60) or decompression of the carpal tunnel (n = 60). The primary outcome was intensity of pain (mean pain and the worst pain), and secondary outcomes included function and symptoms severity subscales of the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the intervention. Rs4680 genotypes were determined after amplifying the Val158Met polymorphism by polymerase chain reactions. We classified subjects according to their Val158Met polymorphism: Val/Val, Val/Met, or Met/Met. The primary aim (treatment group*Val158Met*time) was examined with repeated measures ANCOVA with intention-to-treat analysis. RESULTS At 12 months, 111 (92%) women completed the follow-up. No interaction was observed between the Val158Met genotype and any outcome: mean pain intensity (F = 0.60; P = 0.69), worst pain intensity (F = 0.49; P = 0.61), function (F = 0.12; P = 0.88) or symptom severity (F = 0.01; P = 0.98). CONCLUSION The current clinical trial did not show an association between the Val158Met polymorphism and changes in pain and function outcomes after either surgery or physical therapy in women with CTS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several patient characteristic, clinical, and psychological risk factors for chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) have been identified, genetic variants including single nucleotide polymorphisms have also become of interest as potential risk factors for the development of CPSP. The aim of this review is to summarize the current evidence on genetic polymorphisms associated with the prevalence and severity of CPSP in adult patients. METHODS A systematic review of the literature was performed, and additional literature was obtained by reference tracking. The primary outcome was CPSP, defined as pain at least 2 months after the surgery. Studies performed exclusively in animals were excluded. RESULTS Out of the 1001 identified studies, 14 studies were selected for inclusion. These studies described 5269 participants in 17 cohorts. A meta-analysis was not possible because of heterogeneity of data and data analysis. Associations with the prevalence or severity of CPSP were reported for genetic variants in the COMT gene, OPRM1, potassium channel genes, GCH1, CACNG, CHRNA6, P2X7R, cytokine-associated genes, human leucocyte antigens, DRD2, and ATXN1 CONCLUSIONS: Research on the topic of genetic variants associated with CPSP is still in its initial phase. Hypothesis-free, genome-wide association studies on large cohorts are needed in this field. In addition, future studies may also integrate genetic risk factors and patient characteristic, clinical, and psychological predictors for CPSP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES There is great heterogeneity in the way individuals respond to medications. Inherited differences, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), can influence the efficacy and toxicity of drugs. This meta-analysis aims to collate data from studies investigating the effect of SNPs on postoperative and/or intraoperative opioid requirements. MATERIALS AND METHODS A meta-analysis was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Eligibility criteria for studies included were reporting amount of postoperative and/or intraoperative opioid used as the primary outcome and genotyping patients for SNPs in one of the following genes; OPRM1, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, COMT, UGT2B7, or ABCB1. A comprehensive systematic search for articles using keywords "opioid-sensitivity," "polymorphisms," "post-operative opioid," "post-surgical opioid," "post-operative pain," and "post-surgical pain" was performed. RESULTS Fifty-one studies were included. Individuals homozygous for AA at the OPRMI (rs1799971) polymorphisms required less postsurgical opioid compared with those homozygous for GG (Hedges g, -0.270; 95% confidence interval, -0.433 to -0.108; P=0.001). Polymorphisms in CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, COMT, UGT2B7, and ABCB1 did not affect opioid requirements. DISCUSSION Investigation of single changes in 1 gene can only yield limited information regarding genetic effects on opioid requirements. Rapid development of whole genome sequencing enables information on all genetic modifications that may affect analgesic response to be collected. The information collected must include data on the individual's metabolic enzymes, as well as information on drug receptors and enzymes responsible for drug degradation, so that a personal profile can be built up which will predict individual response to drugs, and guide clinicians on the type and dosage of drug to use.

Abstract
Genetic differences in humans cause clinical difficulties in opioid treatment. Previous studies indicate that a single nucleotide polymorphism in the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene (rs4680; p.Val158Met) may present as a predictive biomarker for the response to morphine treatment. In our previous pilot exploratory study, patients with a G/G genotype were demonstrated to require a higher dose of morphine, compared with patients with A/A and A/G genotypes. In the present study, the aim was to replicate the findings in an independent cohort of opioid-treatment-naïve patients exhibiting various types of cancer. This prospective study was conducted from 2011 to 2012 at the Kindai University Faculty of Medicine. A total of 50 patients with opioid-treatment naïve and histologically confirmed malignant neoplasms who were scheduled to undergo opioid treatment were evaluated in the present study. Assessments were conducted pre-treatment (day 1), post-treatment (day 1), and one week after treatment (day 8). The required dose of morphine on day 1 was significantly higher for patients with the G/G genotype of COMT, compared with those with the A/A and A/G genotypes (P=0.013). The results of the present study provide additional evidence that the COMT genotype may be a predictive biomarker for the response to morphine treatment.

Abstract
Women with breast cancer frequently report distressing symptoms during and after treatment that can significantly erode quality of life (QOL). Symptom burden among women with breast cancer is of complex etiology and is likely influenced by disease, treatment, and environmental factors as well as individual genetic differences. The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationships between genetic polymorphisms within Neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor 1 (NTRK1), Neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor 2 (NTRK2), and catechol-O-methyltransferase ( COMT) and patient symptom burden of QOL, pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbance before, during, and after treatment for breast cancer in a subset of participants ( N = 51) in a randomized clinical trial of a novel symptom-management modality for women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Patients were recruited at the time of initial breast cancer diagnosis and completed all survey measures at the time of recruitment, after the initiation of treatment (surgery and/or chemotherapy), and then following treatment conclusion. Multiple linear regression analyses revealed significant associations between NTRK2 and COMT single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotype and symptom burden. Two COMT variants were associated with the specific symptoms of anxiety and QOL measures prior to the initiation of chemotherapy as well as pain interference and severity during and after treatment. Genotype at the NTRK2 SNP rs1212171 was associated with both sleep disturbance and fatigue. These findings, while exploratory, indicate that the genotypes of NTRK2 and COMT may contribute to relative risk for symptom burden during and shortly after the period of chemotherapy in women with early stage breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are two of the most frequent and distressing complications following surgical procedures, with as many as 80% of patients considered to be at risk. Despite recognition of well-established risk factors and the subsequent use of clinical guidelines, 20-30% of women do not respond to antiemetic protocols, indicating that there may be a genetic risk. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this pilot study was to describe the incidence and explore the risk factors associated with PONV after surgery in women diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. METHODS A prospective cohort design was employed to measure PONV in women recruited prior to surgery. DNA was extracted from saliva samples collected prior to discharge. Polymorphisms for seven candidate genes with a known role in one of the neural pathways associated with PONV were included in this study; serotonin receptor (HTR3A), serotonin transport (SLC6A4), tryptophan (TPH), dopamine receptors (DRD2/ANKK and DRD3), catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and histamine (H1). RESULTS Twenty-nine (29.8%) women experienced nausea and 10 (11%) experienced nausea and vomiting while in the PACU despite administration of multiple antiemetic medications. Women who experienced PONV had higher levels of pain and received more opioids than those women who did not experienced PONV. Odds ratios demonstrated that alleles for the COMT, DRD3, and TPH genes were associated with decreased PONV. CONCLUSION The understanding of the multifactorial nature of PONV and the recognition of genetic risk will ultimately lead to the development of personalized interventions to manage these frequent and often debilitating symptoms.

Abstract
Although certain risk factors can identify individuals who are most likely to develop chronic pain, few interventions to prevent chronic pain have been identified. To facilitate the identification of preventive interventions, an IMMPACT meeting was convened to discuss research design considerations for clinical trials investigating the prevention of chronic pain. We present general design considerations for prevention trials in populations that are at relatively high risk for developing chronic pain. Specific design considerations included subject identification, timing and duration of treatment, outcomes, timing of assessment, and adjusting for risk factors in the analyses. We provide a detailed examination of 4 models of chronic pain prevention (ie, chronic postsurgical pain, postherpetic neuralgia, chronic low back pain, and painful chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy). The issues discussed can, in many instances, be extrapolated to other chronic pain conditions. These examples were selected because they are representative models of primary and secondary prevention, reflect persistent pain resulting from multiple insults (ie, surgery, viral infection, injury, and toxic or noxious element exposure), and are chronically painful conditions that are treated with a range of interventions. Improvements in the design of chronic pain prevention trials could improve assay sensitivity and thus accelerate the identification of efficacious interventions. Such interventions would have the potential to reduce the prevalence of chronic pain in the population. Additionally, standardization of outcomes in prevention clinical trials will facilitate meta-analyses and systematic reviews and improve detection of preventive strategies emerging from clinical trials.

We tested the association between morphine consumption, postoperative pain, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within opioid receptor μ 1 (OPRM1), catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT), uridine diphosphate glucose-glucuronosyltransferase-2B7, and estrogen receptor (ESR1) gene loci to elucidate genetic prediction of opioid consumption. We analyzed 20 SNPs in 201 unrelated Caucasian patients who underwent abdominal surgery and who were receiving postoperative patient-controlled analgesia-administered morphine. Morphine consumption and pain intensity were dependent variables; age and sex were covariates. A haplotype of 7 SNPs in OPRM1 showed significant additive effects on opioid consumption (P = .007); a linear regression model including age and 9 SNPs in ESR1, OPRM1, and COMT explained the highest proportion of variance of morphine consumption (10.7%; P = .001). The minimal model including 3 SNPs in ESR1, OPRM1, and COMT explained 5% of variance (P = .007). We found a significant interaction between rs4680 in COMT and rs4986936 in ESR1 (P = .007) on opioid consumption. SNPs rs677830 and rs540825 of OPRM1 and rs9340799 of ESR1 were nominally associated with pain Numeric Rating Scale scores. Combinations of genetic variants within OPRM1, COMT, and ESR1 better explain variability in morphine consumption than single genetic variants. Our results contribute to the development of genetic markers and statistical models for future diagnostic tools for opioid consumption/efficacy. PERSPECTIVE This article presents the efforts dedicated to detect correlations between the genetic polymorphisms and the clinical morphine effect self-administered by patients using a patient-controlled analgesia pump after major surgery. The clinical effect is expressed in terms of morphine consumption and pain scores. REGISTERED ON CLINICALTRIALS.GOV: NCT01233752.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the development of multimodal analgesia for postoperative pain management, opioids are still required for effective pain relief after knee arthroplasty. We aimed to identify the determinants of post-operative pain intensity and post-operative opioid requirement in this context. METHODS In this observational prospective study, we recorded patient characteristics, pre-operative pain intensity, anxiety and depression levels, sensitivity and pain thresholds in response to an electrical stimulus, and mu-opioid receptor (OPRM1) and catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) single-nucleotide polymorphisms. Multivariate linear regression models were used to identify predictors of post-operative pain at rest and opioid requirement. RESULTS We included 109 patients. Pre-operative pain at rest (p = 0.047), anxiety level (p = 0.001) and neuropathic pain symptoms (p = 0.030) were independently and positively associated with mean post-operative pain intensity adjusted for mean post-operative morphine equivalent dose (MED). Mean post-operative pain intensity at rest was lower (p = 0.006) in patients receiving celecoxib and pregabalin in the post-operative period, with all other variables constant. Mean post-operative MED over 5 days was low, but highly variable (78.2 ± 32.1 mg, from 9.9 to 170 mg). Following adjustment for mean post-operative pain intensity, it was independently negatively correlated with age (p = 0.004), and positively correlated with associated paracetamol treatment (p = 0.031). No genetic effect was detected in our sample. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that clinicians could use the pre-operative pain profile, in terms of anxiety levels, neuropathic pain symptoms, and chronic pre-operative pain intensity, to improve the efficacy of pain management after knee surgery.

ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2015; 35:752-758.

Abstract
Pain perception is influenced by multiple factors. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of some genes were found associated with pain perception. This study aimed to examine the association of the genotypes of ABCB1 C3435T, OPRM1 A118G and COMT V108/158M (valine 108/158 methionine) with pain perception in cancer patients. We genotyped 146 cancer pain patients and 139 cancer patients without pain for ABCB1 C3435T (rs1045642), OPRM1 A118G (rs1799971) and COMT V108/158M (rs4680) by the fluorescent dye-terminator cycle sequencing method, and compared the genotype distribution between groups with different pain intensities by chi-square test and pain scores between groups with different genotypes by non-parametric test. The results showed that in these cancer patients, the frequency of variant T allele of ABCB1 C3435T was 40.5%; that of G allele of OPRM1 A118G was 38.5% and that of A allele of COMT V108/158M was 23.3%. No significant difference in the genotype distribution of ABCB1 C3435T (rs1045642) and OPRM1 A118G (rs1799971) was observed between cancer pain group and control group (P=0.364 and 0.578); however, significant difference occurred in the genotype distribution of COMT V108/158M (rs4680) between the two groups (P=0.001). And the difference could not be explained by any other confounding factors. Moreover, we found that the genotypes of COMT V108/158M and ABCB1 C3435T were associated with the intensities of pain in cancer patients. In conclusion, our results indicate that the SNPs of COMT V108/158M and ABCB1 C3435T significantly influence the pain perception in Chinese cancer patients.
