Abstract
Worldwide, the burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has increased rapidly and is a lethal disease. The klotho protein plays a vital role in the regulatory mechanism in the progression of CKD. Particularly the decreased expression of klothoand its genetic variations might affect the potency of drugs. This study aims to identify a new drug molecule, which works equipotential in all types of klotholike wild and mutant variants. All non-synonymous SNPs were predicted by several SNP tools. Where, two missense variants were examined as vulnerable, significantly damaging, and also involved in the structural conformational changes of the protein. Based on structure-based screening, E-pharmacophore screening, binding mode analysis, binding free energy analysis, QM/MM, and molecular dynamics analysis a lead compound (Lifechemical_F2493-2038) was identified as an effective agonistic molecule hence the identified Lifechemical_F2493-2038 compound is well bound to the wild and mutant proteins which found to increase the expression of klotho.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
In this recent publication review the authors aimed to collect evidence of impact of nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNP) in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system on patients' phenotype not only regarding arterial hypertension and its complications, but also the impact on other diseases of interest outside the field of cardiovascular medicine. PubMed database records published between 2017-2020 were searched and all positive case-control studies or positive studies with human DNA were selected. The search identified 104 articles, of which 22 were included on the basis of the inclusion criteria. This paper presents the impact of 44 nsSNPs in panels for genes of renin, angiotensinogen, angiotensin-converting enzyme, angiotensin receptor and aldosterone on the clinical picture of investigated cohorts or on the peptide-protein interactions as consequence of nsSNPs. Genetic variability in nsSNPs of the RAAS is involved in the pathogenesis of arterial hypertension and its complications, and surprisingly also in the pathogenesis of conditions not associated with elevated blood pressure, like neoplasms or inflammatory diseases.

Structural and functional insights on vitamin D receptor and CYP24A1 deleterious single nucleotide polymorphisms: A computational and pharmacogenomics perpetual approach.

Abstract
The development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) drugs remains a challenge due to the variations in the genes. The vitamin D receptor (VDR) and Cytochrome 24A1 (CYP24A1) genetic variants might affect the drug potency, efficacy and pathway. Here we have to analyse and determine the deleterious single-nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) of VDR and CYP24A1 genes and their different population's drug responses in different populations to understand the key role in CKD. Among that the large scale of nsSNP, we used certain computational tools that predicted six missense variants are observed to be significantly damaging effect and SNP variability with large differences in various populations. Molecular docking studies were carried out by clinical and our screened compounds to VDR and CYP24A1. Docking results revealed all the compounds have a good binding affinity (Score). The screened compounds (TCM_2868 and UNPD_141613) show good binding affinity when compared to known compounds. The QM/MM study revealed that the compounds have electron transfer ability and act as a donor/acceptor to mutated proteins. The structural and conformational changes of protein complexes were analysed by molecular dynamics study. Hence, this study helps to identify suitable drugs through drug discovery in CKD treatment. The abovementioned compounds have more binding affinity, efficacy, and potency of both wild and mutant of VDR and CYP24A1.

Mechanistic insights on nsSNPs on binding site of renin and cytochrome P450 proteins: A computational perceptual study for pharmacogenomics evaluation. J Cell Biochem 2021; 122:1460-1474.

Abstract
Past several decades, therapeutic investigations lead to the discovery of numerous antihypertensive drugs. Although it has been proved for their potency, altered efficacy is common norms in several conditions due to genetic variations. Cytochrome P450 plays a crucial role in drug metabolism and responsible for the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the drug molecules. Here, we report the deleterious point mutations in the genes associated with the altered response of antihypertensive drug molecules and their metabolizers. Missense variants were filtered as potential nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms among the available data for the target genes (REN, CYP2D6, CYP3A4). The key objective of the work is to identify the deleterious single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) responsible for the drug response and metabolism for the application of personalized medication. The molecular docking studies revealed that Aliskiren and other clinically approved drug molecules have a high binding affinity with both wild and mutant structures of renin, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4 proteins. The docking (Glide XP) score was observed to have in the range of -8.896 to -11.693 kcal/mol. The molecular dynamics simulation studies were employed to perceive the structural changes and conformational deviation through various analyses. Each studied SNPs was observed to have disparate scoring in the binding affinity to the specific drug molecules. As a prospective plan, we assume this study might be applied to identify the risky SNPs associated with hypertension from the patients to recommend the suitable drug for personalized hypertensive treatment. Further, extensive clinical pharmacogenomics studies are required to support the findings.

Abstract
High-altitude pulmonary edema occurs most frequently in non-acclimatized low landers on exposure to altitude ≥2500 m. High-altitude pulmonary edema is a complex condition that involves perturbation of signaling pathways in vasoconstrictors, vasodilators, anti-diuretics, and vascular growth factors. Genetic variations are instrumental in regulating these pathways and evidence is accumulating for a role of epigenetic modification in hypoxic responses. This review focuses on the crosstalk between high-altitude pulmonary edema-associated genetic variants and transcription factors, comparing high-altitude adapted and high-altitude pulmonary edema-afflicted subjects. This approach might ultimately yield biomarker information both to understand and to design therapies for high-altitude adaptation.

Computational and Pharmacogenomic Insights on Hypertension Treatment: Rational Drug Design and Optimization Strategies. Curr Drug Targets 2019; 21:18-33. [DOI: 10.2174/1389450120666190808101356] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2019] [Revised: 07/15/2019] [Accepted: 07/16/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Background::
Hypertension is a prevalent cardiovascular complication caused by genetic
and nongenetic factors. Blood pressure (BP) management is difficult because most patients become
resistant to monotherapy soon after treatment initiation. Although many antihypertensive drugs are
available, some patients do not respond to multiple drugs. Identification of personalized antihypertensive
treatments is a key for better BP management.
Objective::
This review aimed to elucidate aspects of rational drug design and other methods to develop
better hypertension management.
Results::
Among hypertension-related signaling mechanisms, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
is the leading genetic target for hypertension treatment. Identifying a single drug that acts on multiple
targets is an emerging strategy for hypertension treatment, and could be achieved by discovering new
drug targets with less mutated and highly conserved regions. Extending pharmacogenomics research
to include patients with hypertension receiving multiple antihypertensive drugs could help identify the
genetic markers of hypertension. However, available evidence on the role of pharmacogenomics in
hypertension is limited and primarily focused on candidate genes. Studies on hypertension pharmacogenomics
aim to identify the genetic causes of response variations to antihypertensive drugs. Genetic
association studies have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms affecting drug responses. To understand
how genetic traits alter drug responses, computational screening of mutagenesis can be utilized
to observe drug response variations at the protein level, which can help identify new inhibitors
and drug targets to manage hypertension.
Conclusions::
Rational drug design facilitates the discovery and design of potent inhibitors. However,
further research and clinical validation are required before novel inhibitors can be clinically used as
antihypertensive therapies.

Are genetic polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system associated with essential hypertension? Evidence from genome-wide association studies. J Hum Hypertens 2017; 31:695-698. [PMID: 28425437 DOI: 10.1038/jhh.2017.29] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2016] [Revised: 01/20/2017] [Accepted: 03/03/2017] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
In candidate gene era, dozens of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) have been reported to be significantly associated with hypertension. However, the unbiased genome-wide association studies (GWAS) rarely identified the SNPs within RAAS were associated with hypertension or blood pressure (BP) traits. In order to figure out whether genetic polymorphisms of RAAS are really associated with hypertension, we systemically searched the GWAS Catalogue and identified all the known RAAS genes and relevant diseases/traits. After data processing, we found that polymorphisms within REN, AGT, ACE2, CYP11B2, ATP6AP2 and HSD11B2 were not associated with any disease or trait. SNPs within ACE, AGTR1, AGTR2, MAS1, RENBP and NR3C2 were associated with other diseases or traits, but showed no direct connection with hypertension. The only SNP associated with a BP trait, systolic BP was rs17367504. However, it is located in the intronic region of MTHFR near many plausible candidate genes, including CLCN6, NPPA, NPPB and AGTRAP. Therefore, the effect of RAAS polymorphisms may have been overestimated during the 'candidate gene era'. In the time of 'precision medicine', the power of RAAS variants needs to be reconsidered when evaluating one's susceptibility of hypertension.

Abstract
FGF23, CYP24A1 and VDR altogether play a significant role in genetic susceptibility to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Identification of possible causative mutations may serve as therapeutic targets and diagnostic markers for CKD. Thus, we adopted both sequence and sequence-structure based SNP analysis algorithm in order to overcome the limitations of both methods. We explore the functional significance towards the prediction of risky SNPs associated with CKD. We assessed the performance of four widely used pathogenicity prediction methods. We compared the performances of the programs using Mathews correlation Coefficient ranged from poor (MCC = 0.39) to reasonably good (MCC = 0.42). However, we got the best results for the combined sequence and structure based analysis method (MCC = 0.45). 4 SNPs from FGF23 gene, 8 SNPs from VDR gene and 13 SNPs from CYP24A1 gene were predicted to be the causative agents for human diseases. This study will be helpful in selecting potential SNPs for experimental study from the SNP pool and also will reduce the cost for identification of potential SNPs as a genetic marker.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypertension is a serious risk factor affecting up to 30% of the world's population with a heritability of more than 30-50%. The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of the polymorphisms localized in the angiotensinogen (AGT) gene, a main component of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, in inducing the susceptibility to essential hypertension (EH) among isolated populations (Yi and Hani minorities) with low prevalence rate from the remote region of Yunnan in China. METHODS A case-control association study was performed, and all subjects were genotyped for the seven single nucleotide polymorphisms localized in the AGT region by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. RESULTS Three polymorphisms, i.e. rs5046, rs5049, and rs2478544, were significantly associated with EH among the Hani minority. The associations, found in the Yi minority, did not reach a conclusive level of statistical significance. The polymorphisms of rs2478544 and rs5046 caused the transformations of exonic splicing enhancer sites and transcription factor binding sites, respectively, in the bioinformatic analyses. The haplotype-rs5046T, rs5049A, rs11568020G, rs3789679C, rs2478544C was susceptible for EH among the Hani minority. CONCLUSION Our findings suggested that the AGT polymorphisms have played a vital role in determining an individual's susceptibility to EH among the isolated population, which would be helpful for EH management in the remote mountainous region of Yunnan in China.
