Heliyon 2024; 10:e36546. [PMID: 39262940 PMCID: PMC11388505 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e36546] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hypertension are global public health concerns and major metabolic disorders in humans. Experimental evidence indicates considerable hereditary influences on the etiology of T2D and hypertension, but the molecular basis of these diseases is still limited. Thus, the current study analyzed 185 (132 T2D and 53 hypertension) GWAS catalog datasets and identified 83 common genes linked to T2D and hypertension pathogenesis. These genes were further examined using various bioinformatics approaches to elucidate their molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of T2D and hypertension. Gene ontology (GO) analysis revealed the biological, cellular, and molecular functions of these genes, which were also linked to different T2D and hypertension pathways. Specifically, seven genes were found to be crucial for T2D, and nine were directly associated with hypertension. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis identified 28 candidate genes and seven hub genes through 11 topological methods. Among 231 miRNAs, seven were significant in interacting with the hub genes, and nine transcription factors (TFs) out of 36 were linked to these hub genes. Additionally, two of the seven hub genes were downregulated by 43 FDA-approved drugs. These findings elucidate the molecular processes underlying T2D and hypertension, suggesting that targeting these genes could lead to future drug development and therapeutic strategies to treat T2D and hypertension.

Clinical Significance and Patterns of Potential Drug-Drug Interactions in Cardiovascular Patients: Focus on Low-Dose Aspirin and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4289. [PMID: 39124556 PMCID: PMC11313610 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13154289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective: This study assessed the patterns and clinical significance of potential drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) in patients with diseases of the cardiovascular system. Methods: Electronic health records (EHRs), established in 2018-2023, were selected using the probability serial nested sampling method (n = 1030). Patients were aged 27 to 95 years (65.0% men). Primary diagnosis of COVID-19 was present in 17 EHRs (1.7%). Medscape Drug Interaction Checker was used to characterize pDDIs. The Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results: Drug numbers per record ranged from 1 to 23 in T-List and from 1 to 20 in P-List. In T-List, 567 drug combinations resulted in 3781 pDDIs. In P-List, 584 drug combinations resulted in 5185 pDDIs. Polypharmacy was detected in 39.0% of records in T-List versus 65.9% in P-List (p-value < 0.05). The rates of serious and monitor-closely pDDIs due to 'aspirin + captopril' combinations were significantly higher in P-List than in T-List (p-value < 0.05). The rates of serious pDDIs due to 'aspirin + enalapril' and 'aspirin + lisinopril' combinations were significantly lower in P-List compared with the corresponding rates in T-List (p-value < 0.05). Serious pDDIs due to administration of aspirin with fosinopril, perindopril, and ramipril were detected less frequently in T-List (p-value < 0.05). Conclusions: Obtained data may suggest better patient adherence to 'aspirin + enalapril' and 'aspirin + lisinopril' combinations, which are potentially superior to the combinations of aspirin with fosinopril, perindopril, and ramipril. An abundance of high-order pDDIs in real-world clinical practice warrants the development of a decision support system aimed at reducing pharmacotherapy-associated risks while integrating patient pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacogenetic information.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High blood pressure, also known as hypertension (HTN), is a complicated disorder that is controlled by a complex network of physiological processes. Untreated hypertension is associated with increased death incidence, rise the need for understanding the genetic basis affecting hypertension susceptibility and development. The current study sought to identify the genetic association between twelve single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within seven candidate genes (NOS3, NOS1AP, REN, PLA2G4A, TCF7L, ADRB1, and PTPRD). METHODS The current study included 200 Jordanian individuals diagnosed with hypertension, compared to 224 healthy controls. Whole blood samples were drawn from each individual for DNA isolation and genotyping. The SNPStats tool was used to assess haplotype, genotype, and allele frequencies by the mean of chi-square (χ2). RESULTS Except for rs10739150 of PTPRD (P = 0.0003), the genotypic and allelic distribution of the SNP was identical between patients and controls. The prevalence of the G/G genotype in healthy controls (45.5%) was lower than in hypertension patients (64.3%), suggesting that it might be a risk factor for the disease. PTPRD TTC genetic haplotypes were strongly linked with hypertension (P = 0.003, OR = 4.03). CONCLUSION This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the involvement of rs10739150 within the PTPRD gene in hypertension. This new knowledge could potentially transform the way we approach hypertension diagnosis, providing an accurate diagnostic tool for classifying individuals who are at a higher risk of developing this condition.

Genetic Variation in ABCB1, ADRB1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, NEDD4L and NR3C2 Confers Differential Susceptibility to Resistant Hypertension among South Africans. J Pers Med 2024; 14:664. [PMID: 39063918 PMCID: PMC11277774 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14070664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Resistant hypertension (RHTN) prevalence ranges from 4 to 19% in Africa. There is a paucity of data on the role of genetic variation on RHTN among Africans. We set out to investigate the role of polymorphisms in ABCB1, ADRB1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, NEDD4L, and NR3C2, on RHTN susceptibility among South Africans. Using a retrospective matched case-control study, 190 RHTN patients (cases: blood pressure (BP) ≥ 140/90 mmHg on ≥3 anti-hypertensives or BP < 140/90 mmHg on >3 anti-hypertensives) and 189 non-RHTN patients (controls: <3 anti-hypertensives, BP < 140/90 or ≥140/90 mmHg), 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), quantitative PCR and Sanger sequencing. Genetic association analyses were conducted using the additive model and multivariable logistic regression. Homozygosity for CYP3A5 rs776746C/C genotype (p = 0.02; OR: 0.44; CI: 0.22-0.89) was associated with reduced risk for RHTN. Homozygous ADRB1 rs1801252G/G (p = 0.02; OR: 3.30; CI: 1.17-10.03) and NEDD4L rs4149601A/A genotypes (p = 0.001; OR: 3.82; CI: 1.67-9.07) were associated with increased risk for RHTN. Carriers of the of ADRB1 rs1801252-rs1801253 G-C haplotype had 2.83-fold odds of presenting with RHTN (p = 0.04; OR: 2.83; CI: 1.05-8.20). These variants that are associated with RHTN may have clinical utility in the selection of antihypertensive drugs in our population.

Abstract
The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism raises the possibility of personalising ACE inhibitor therapy to optimise its efficiency and reduce side effects in genetically distinct subgroups. However, the extent of its influence among these subgroups is unknown. Therefore, we extended our computational model of blood pressure regulation to investigate the effect of the ACE I/D polymorphism on haemodynamic parameters in humans undergoing antihypertensive therapy. The model showed that the dependence of blood pressure on serum ACE activity is a function of saturation and therefore, the lack of association between ACE I/D and blood pressure levels may be due to high ACE activity in specific populations. Additionally, in an extended model simulating the effects of different classes of antihypertensive drugs, we explored the relationship between ACE I/D and the efficacy of inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. The model predicted that the response of cardiovascular and renal parameters to treatment directly depends on ACE activity. However, significant differences in parameter changes were observed only between groups with high and low ACE levels, while different ACE I/D genotypes within the same group had similar changes in absolute values. We conclude that a single genetic variant is responsible for only a small fraction of heredity in treatment success and its predictive value is limited.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is closely related to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and genetic predisposition is one of the main triggers for its development. To identify the susceptibility genes for MetS, we investigated the relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and MetS in southern China. In total, 339 MetS patients and 398 non-MetS hospitalized patients were recruited. Four ACE2 polymorphisms (rs2074192, rs2106809, rs879922, and rs4646155) were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection method and tested for their potential association with MetS and its related components. ACE2 rs2074192 and rs2106809 minor alleles conferred 2.485-fold and 3.313-fold greater risks of MetS in women. ACE2 rs2074192 and rs2106809 variants were risk factors for obesity, diabetes, and low-high-density lipoprotein cholesterolemia. However, in men, the ACE2 rs2074192 minor allele was associated with an approximately 0.525-fold reduction in MetS prevalence. Further comparing the components of MetS, ACE2 rs2074192 and rs2106809 variants reduced the risk of obesity and high triglyceride levels. In conclusion, ACE2 rs2074192 and rs2106809 SNPs were independently associated with MetS in a southern Chinese population and showed gender heterogeneity, which can be partially explained by obesity. Thus, these SNPs may be utilized as predictive biomarkers and molecular targets for MetS. A limitation of this study is that environmental and lifestyle differences, as well as genetic heterogeneity among different populations, were not considered in the analysis.

Polygenic scores for cardiovascular risk factors improve estimation of clinical outcomes in CCB treatment compared to pharmacogenetic variants alone. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2024; 24:12.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetic variants are associated with clinical outcomes during Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB) treatment, yet whether the effects are modified by genetically predicted clinical risk factors is unknown. We analyzed 32,000 UK Biobank participants treated with dihydropiridine CCBs (mean 5.9 years), including 23 pharmacogenetic variants, and calculated polygenic scores for systolic and diastolic blood pressures, body fat mass, and other patient characteristics. Outcomes included treatment discontinuation and heart failure. Pharmacogenetic variant rs10898815-A (NUMA1) increased discontinuation rates, highest in those with high polygenic scores for fat mass. The RYR3 variant rs877087 T-allele alone modestly increased heart failure risks versus non-carriers (HR:1.13, p = 0.02); in patients with high polygenic scores for fat mass, lean mass, and lipoprotein A, risks were substantially elevated (HR:1.55, p = 4 × 10-5). Incorporating polygenic scores for adiposity and lipoprotein A may improve risk estimates of key clinical outcomes in CCB treatment such as treatment discontinuation and heart failure, compared to pharmacogenetic variants alone.

Abstract
Arterial hypertension is characterized by systolic pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic pressure ≥ 90 mmHg and its treatment consists of the use of antihypertensive drugs, as losartan and hydrochlorothiazide. Blood pressure is regulated by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and polymorphisms in the ACE gene are associated to a greater predisposition to hypertension and response to treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of genetic polymorphisms of ACE rs4363, rs4291 and rs4335 and the response to antihypertensive drugs in hypertensive patients from Ouro Preto/MG, Brazil. A case-control study was carried out with 87 hypertensive patients being treated with losartan and 75 with hydrochlorothiazide, who answered a questionnaire and had blood samples collected. Biochemical analyzes were performed on serum using UV/Vis spectrophotometry and identification of ACE variants rs4363, rs4291 and rs4335 was performed by real-time PCR using the TaqMan® system. Univariate logistic regression test was performed to compare categorical data in STATA 13.0 software. The results showed that there was an influence of ACE polymorphisms on the response to losartan, demonstrating that AT or TT genotypes of rs4291 were more frequent in the group of controlled AH (54.9%), indicating that these individuals are 2.8 times more likely to of being controlled AH (95% CI 1.12-6.80, p. =0.026) compared to those with AA genotype. In contrast, no influence of ACE polymorphisms on the response to hydrochlorothiazide was observed. In conclusion, the presence of the T allele of the rs4291 variant was associated to controled blood pressure when losartan was used as an antihypertensive agent. These results show the importance of pharmacogenetic studies to detect genetic characteristics, enabling therapeutic individuality and reducing costs for the healthcare system.

Int J Hypertens 2024; 2024:5528787. [PMID: 38298191 PMCID: PMC10827366 DOI: 10.1155/2024/5528787] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Antihypertensive therapy is crucial for preventing stroke in hypertensive patients. However, the efficacy of antihypertensive therapy varies across individuals, partially due to therapy-related genetic variations among individuals. We investigated the association of antihypertensive drug-related gene polymorphism with stroke in patients with hypertension. Methods Demographic information, medication, and outcome data were obtained from a hypertensive patient management system, and a PCR fluorescence probe technique was used to detect 7 gene polymorphic loci (CYP2D6∗10, ADRB1, CYP2C9∗3, AGTR1, ACE, CYP3A5∗3, and NPPA), and these loci were compared between patients with and without stroke. Logistic regression was performed to analyze the association of these genetic variations with stroke risk in hypertensive patients while controlling for potential factors. Results The prevalence of stroke in the hypertensive population in Changsha County of Hunan Province was 2.75%. The mutation frequencies of ADRB1 (1165G > C), CYP2D6∗10, CYP2C9∗3, AGTR1 (1166A > C), ACE (I/D), NPPA (2238T > C), and CYP3A5∗3 were 74.43%, 57.23%, 4.26%, 5.71%, 31.62%, 1.17%, and 69.58%, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that ADRB1 polymorphism was associated with stroke (χ2 = 8.659, P < 0.05), with a higher stroke risk in the CC group than in the GC and GG groups (GC + GG). Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that the CC genotype in ADRB1 (vs. the GC + GG genotype) was associated with an increased risk of stroke [odds ratio (OR) = 1.184, P<0.05] in hypertensive patients. No association was observed between CYP2D6∗10, CYP2C9∗3, AGTR1 (1166A > C), ACE (I/D), CYP3A5∗3, and NPPA (2238T > C) polymorphisms and stroke. Conclusions ADRB1 (1165G > C) gene polymorphism is associated with the risk of stroke in Chinese hypertensive patients. The CC genotype is correlated with a higher risk of stroke than the GC + GG genotype.

Abstract
In this study, a nanocomposite of LDH/graphene/polyaniline/gold (LDH/rGO/PANI/Au) was synthesized and characterized. The results of characterization showed that the composite material preserved the layered structure of LDH. The composite was dropped onto the glassy carbon electrode and laccase was then immobilized. Electrochemical tests showed that the composite could accelerate the electron transfer between the enzyme and the electrode. The composite/laccase showed an obvious response to rutin and the optimal detection conditions were discussed. The oxidative peak current of the biosensor constructed using the modified electrode was negatively correlated with rutin in the range of 0.05-4 μg/mL. The detection limit was 0.0017 μg/mL at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. This biosensor of rutin also possessed high sensitivity, excellent anti-interference ability, and stability. The contents of rutin in tablets, first determined using HPLC, were also detected using the sensor constructed in this research as an application, and the results were acceptable. This research here provides a facile way for the fast detection of rutin in real samples.

Abstract
Objective Previous studies have proposed that genetic polymorphisms of CYP2D6*10, ADRB1, NPPA, CYP3A5*3, ACE, CYP2C9*3, and AGTR1 are involved in antihypertensive pharmacogenomics. The purpose of this study is to develop an amplification analysis using double allele-specific (AS) binding primers for accurate measurement of antihypertensive pharmacogenomics. Methods To establish a quadruplex quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis for genotyping of CYP2D6*10, ADRB1 (1165 G>C), NPPA (2238 T>C) and CYP3A5*3, and a triplex qPCR analysis for genotyping of ACE (I/D), CYP2C9*3 and AGTR1 (1166 A>C), mismatch AS F-primers were screened by detection of plasmid/gDNA, and were validated by agreement analysis/reproducibility evaluation, in which the ΔCq (differences in threshold cycles between the wild-type F-primer-based amplification assay and the mutant-type F-primer-based amplification assay) was employed to determine genotypes. Results Seven pairs of primers were successfully selected through three rounds of F-primers screening. Except for ADRB1, the robustness assessment showed the amplification efficiency ranging from 0.9 to 1.1. In agreement analysis, two specimens in the training set (n = 203) were defined by the triplex analysis rather than NGS as heterozygotes for ACE, which was evidenced by gel electrophoresis. Reproducibility evaluation demonstrated that the coefficient of variation (CV) was <5%. Conclusion Multiplex amplification analysis using screened AS binding primers is a simple, reliable, and accurate tool to guide drug delivery in antihypertensive personalized treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic factors contribute to the variability in individual response to antihypertensive medications. We sought to investigate the frequencies of allele and genotype for CYP2D6 and ADRB1 genetic polymorphisms and explore their potential impact in influencing the selection of antihypertensive beta-receptor blockers. METHODS The study population was selected from the Han Chinese patients in Zhongda Hospital, which contained 2419 Han Chinese hypertensive individuals and 151 normotensive controls. Each of the above participants underwent venous blood sampling. Then, the gene chip platform was adopted to evaluate the CYP2D6 and ADRB1 genetic polymorphisms. The allele as well as genotype frequencies for each gene, along with the combined genotypes, were subjected to analysis. RESULTS The frequency of *1/*1 wild-type homozygous for CYP2D6 was 9.71%, while the frequency of *1/*10 heterozygous or *10/*10 mutant homozygous was 59.16% or 31.13%, respectively, as established by gene chip analysis. Similarly, we observed that the genotype frequencies of GG wild-type homozygous for ADRB1 was 10.29%, while that of GC heterozygous, or CC mutant homozygous was 44.98%, or 44.73%, respectively. Notably, combined genotypes *1/*10 + CC (25.88%) and *1/*10 + CG (27.78%) had the highest frequencies. Importantly, no substantial differences in the distributions of CYP2D6 and ADRB1 polymorphism were noted between hypertensive patients and normotensive controls, or among all different grades of hypertension. CONCLUSION These findings provide insights into the CYP2D6 and ADRB1 polymorphisms in hypertensive patients from Han Chinese, which show significant differences compared to other geographic groups of Han Chinese hypertensive patients. These results offer valuable information for future prospective clinical studies on the antihypertensive effects of beta-receptor blockers in Han Chinese hypertensive patients.

Abstract
Resistant hypertension is defined as uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) despite the use of three or more antihypertensive drugs of different classes. Although genetic factors may greatly contribute to hypertension with resistance to multiple drug classes, more than for general hypertension, its pathogenesis remains unknown. To reveal the genetic background of resistant hypertension, we categorized 32,239 patients whose data were obtained from the BioBank Japan Project, by prescription of 7 classes of antihypertensive drugs and performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Our GWAS identified four loci with significant association (P < 5 × 10-8 ): rs6445583 in CACNA1D and rs12308051 in the intergenic region on chromosome 12 for angiotensin II receptor blockers, rs35497065 in FOXA3 for calcium channel blockers, and rs11066280 in HECTD4 for αβ-blockers. Because these loci are known to be susceptibility loci for hypertension and/or BP, our results indicate that resistant hypertension is caused by a combination of excessive BP and drug resistance to each antihypertensive pharmacological class. Furthermore, to investigate the genetic difference between BP traits and the treatment effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs, we performed gene-set analysis and calculated the genetic correlation continuously. Most of the genetic factors were in common between BP traits and antihypertensive effectiveness, but it seems that the genetic architecture of the drug response to antihypertensive treatment is more complicated than BP traits. This corresponds to the well-known mosaic theory of hypertension. Our findings reveal the complex pathogenesis of hypertension with resistance to multiple classes of antihypertensive drugs.

Abstract
Background Clinical pharmacogenetics is a rapidly growing field that focuses on the study of genetic variations and their impact on drug metabolism, efficacy, and safety. Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) are commonly used to treat hypertension in Iraq but not all patients respond equally to these drugs. Aim This article aims to review the current evidence on the clinical pharmacogenetics of ARBs in Iraq and its implications for personalized medicine. Materials and Methods We conducted a literature review of studies on the genetic variations that affect the response to ARBs in Iraq. We also reviewed the prevalence of these genetic variants in the Iraqi population and discussed the potential clinical implications for personalized medicine. Results The most studied genetic variations associated with ARB response in Iraq are the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphism and the angiotensin II type 1 receptor gene A1166C polymorphism. The angiotensin-converting enzyme gene insertion/deletion polymorphism is associated with variability in response to ARBs, while the angiotensin II type 1 receptor A1166C polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events in patients treated with ARBs. The prevalence of these genetic variants in the Iraqi population varies widely depending on the region and ethnic group. Conclusion The clinical pharmacogenetics of ARBs in Iraq suggests that pharmacogenetic testing could improve the selection and dosing of ARBs in Iraqi patients, leading to better patient outcomes and cost-effective healthcare.

Pharmacogenomics of Hypertension in Africa: Paving the Way for a Pharmacogenetic-Based Approach for the Treatment of Hypertension in Africans. Int J Hypertens 2023; 2023:9919677. [PMID: 38633331 PMCID: PMC11022520 DOI: 10.1155/2023/9919677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
In Africa, the burden of hypertension has been rising at an alarming rate for the last two decades and is a major cause for cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality and morbidity. Hypertension is characterised by elevated blood pressure (BP) ≥ 140/90 mmHg. Current hypertension guidelines recommend the use of antihypertensives belonging to the following classes: calcium channel blockers (CCB), angiotensin converting inhibitors (ACEI), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), diuretics, β-blockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), to manage hypertension. Still, a considerable number of hypertensives in Africa have their BP uncontrolled due to poor drug response and remain at the risk of CVD events. Genetic factors are a major contributing factor, accounting for 20% to 80% of individual variability in therapy and poor response. Poor response to antihypertensive drug therapy is characterised by elevated BPs and occurrence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). As a result, there have been numerous studies which have examined the role of genetic variation and its influence on antihypertensive drug response. These studies are predominantly carried out in non-African populations, including Europeans and Asians, with few or no Africans participating. It is important to note that the greatest genetic diversity is observed in African populations as well as the highest prevalence of hypertension. As a result, this warrants a need to focus on how genetic variation affects response to therapeutic interventions used to manage hypertension in African populations. In this paper, we discuss the implications of genetic diversity in CYP11B2, GRK4, NEDD4L, NPPA, SCNN1B, UMOD, CYP411, WNK, CYP3A4/5, ACE, ADBR1/2, GNB3, NOS3, B2, BEST3, SLC25A31, LRRC15 genes, and chromosome 12q loci on hypertension susceptibility and response to antihypertensive therapy. We show that African populations are poorly explored genetically, and for the few characterised genes, they exhibit qualitative and quantitative differences in the profile of pharmacogene variants when compared to other ethnic groups. We conclude by proposing prioritization of pharmacogenetics research in Africa and possible adoption of pharmacogenetic-guided therapies for hypertension in African patients. Finally, we outline the implications, challenges, and opportunities these studies present for populations of non-European descent.

Abstract
We analyzed the polymorphisms of 7 antihypertensive drugs-related genes and the factors associated with hypertension in hypertensive patients of Han ethnicity in Qingyang, China. A total of 354 hypertensive patients of Han ethnicity were enrolled from Qingyang, China. The ACE (I/D), ADRB1 (1165G > C), AGTR1 (1166A > C), CYP2C9*3, CYP2D6*10, CYP3A5*3 and NPPA (T2238C) polymorphisms were assessed. Clinical data of patients was also obtained. The influencing factors of hypertension were evaluated. The genotype frequencies of ACE, ADRB1, AGTR1, CYP2C9, CYP3A5 and NPPA loci were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, with mutation frequencies of 39.27%, 74.29%, 6.21%, 4.80%, 72.46% and 0.71%, respectively. CYP2D6 locus was not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. There was no statistical difference in allele frequencies between different genders (P > .05). There was significant difference in the frequencies of ACE (I/D) and NPPA (T2238C) loci among different regions of China (P < .05). Gender, ACE (I/D) and ADRB1 (1165G > C) gene polymorphism, smoking, homocysteine and HDL levels were associated hypertension. The mutation frequencies of ADRB1 (1165G > C) and CYP3A5*3 were high in hypertensive patients of Han ethnicity in Qingyang, suggesting these patients may be more sensitive to beta-blockers and calcium ion antagonists. Meanwhile, hypertension was associated with gender, ACE (I/D) and ADRB1 (1165G > C) gene polymorphisms, smoking, homocysteine and HDL levels.

[PMID: 36983653 PMCID: PMC10052041 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13030471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The inadequate efficacy and adverse effects of antipsychotics severely affect the recovery of patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD). We report the evidence for associations between pharmacogenetic (PGx) variants and antipsychotics outcomes, including antipsychotic response, antipsychotic-induced weight/BMI gain, metabolic syndrome, antipsychotic-related prolactin levels, antipsychotic-induced tardive dyskinesia (TD), clozapine-induced agranulocytosis (CLA), and drug concentration level (pharmacokinetics) in SSD patients. Through an in-depth systematic search in 2010–2022, we identified 501 records. We included 29 meta-analyses constituting pooled data from 298 original studies over 69 PGx variants across 39 genes, 4 metabolizing phenotypes of CYP2D9, and 3 of CYP2C19. We observed weak unadjusted nominal significant (p < 0.05) additive effects of PGx variants of DRD1, DRD2, DRD3, HTR1A, HTR2A, HTR3A, and COMT (10 variants) on antipsychotic response; DRD2, HTR2C, BDNF, ADRA2A, ADRB3, GNB3, INSIG2, LEP, MC4R, and SNAP25 (14 variants) on weight gain; HTR2C (one variant) on metabolic syndrome; DRD2 (one variant) on prolactin levels; COMT and BDNF (two variants) on TD; HLA-DRB1 (one variant) on CLA; CYP2D6 (four phenotypes) and CYP2C19 (two phenotypes) on antipsychotics plasma levels. In the future, well-designed longitudinal naturalistic multi-center PGx studies are needed to validate the effectiveness of PGx variants in antipsychotic outcomes before establishing any reproducible PGx passport in clinical practice.

J Hum Genet 2023; 68:393-398. [PMID: 36797372 DOI: 10.1038/s10038-022-01118-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/18/2023]
Abstract
Changes in kidney function and the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) are associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and influenced by genetic factors. However, the association between genetic variants and kidney function in patients treated with antihypertensive drugs remains uncertain. This study aimed to examine the association between 30 variants locating at the 22 genes and the risk of kidney function evaluated by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 1911 patients with hypertension from a Chinese community-based longitudinal cohort (including 1220 participants with CKD and 691 without CKD at baseline). By using multivariate linear regression analysis after adjustment for age, sex, traditional cardiovascular risk factors, and the use of antihypertensive drugs, as well as after correction for multiple comparison, patients with rs10767873T allele of the metallophosphoesterase domain containing 2 (MPPED2) gene were associated with higher level of eGFR (β = 0.041, p = 0.01) and lower levels of serum creatinine (β = -0.068, p = 0.001) and serum uric acid (β = -0.047, p = 0.02). But variant rs10767873 was not found to be associated with the risk of CKD, regardless of the types of antihypertensive drugs used. During a median 2.25-year follow-up, 152 CVD events were documented. Interestingly, patients with the rs10767873TT genotype had an increased risk of CVD events (hazard ratio, 1.74, 95% confidence interval, 1.11 to 2.73; p = 0.02) compared with patients carrying the wild-type genotype of rs10767873CC. In conclusion, our findings suggest variant rs10767873 of the MPPED2 gene is associated with kidney function and risk of CVD in Chinese hypertensive patients.

Br J Clin Pharmacol 2023; 89:853-864. [PMID: 36134646 PMCID: PMC10091789 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 08/31/2022] [Accepted: 09/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Pharmacogenetic variants impact dihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers (dCCBs; e.g., amlodipine) treatment efficacy, yet evidence on clinical outcomes in routine primary care is limited. Reported associations in pharmacogenomics knowledge base PharmGKB have weak supporting evidence. We aimed to estimate associations between reported pharmacogenetic variants and incident adverse events in a community-based cohort prescribed dCCB. METHODS We analysed up to 32 360 UK Biobank participants prescribed dCCB in primary care (from UK general practices, 1990-2017). We investigated 23 genetic variants. Outcomes were incident diagnosis of coronary heart disease, heart failure (HF), chronic kidney disease, oedema and switching antihypertensive medication. RESULTS Participants were aged 40-79 years at first dCCB prescription. Carriers of rs877087 T allele in RYR3 had increased risk of hazard ratio (HF 1.13: 95% confidence interval 1.02 to 1.25, P = .02). Although nonsignificant after multiple testing correction, the association is consistent with prior evidence. We estimated that if rs877087 T allele could experience the same treatment effect as noncarriers, the incidence of HF in patients prescribed dCCB would reduce by 9.2% (95% confidence interval 3.1 to 15.4). In patients with a history of heart disease prior to dCCB (n = 2296), rs877087 homozygotes had increased risk of new coronary heart disease or HF compared to CC variant. rs10898815 in NUMA1 and rs776746 in CYP3A5 increased likelihood of switching to an alternative antihypertensive. The remaining variants were not strongly or consistently associated with studied outcomes. CONCLUSION Patients with common genetic variants in NUMA1, CYP3A5 and RYR3 had increased adverse clinical outcomes. Work is needed to establish whether outcomes of dCCB prescribing could be improved by prior knowledge of pharmacogenetics variants supported by clinical evidence of association with adverse events.

Abstract
Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated 4-like (NEDD4L), a member of the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases, encoded by NEDD4L gene, was found to be involved in in salt sensitivity by regulating sodium reabsorption in salt-sensitive rats. The authors aimed to explore the associations of NEDD4L genetic variants with salt sensitivity, blood pressure (BP) changes and hypertension incidence in Chinese adults. Participants from 124 families in Northern China in the Baoji Salt-Sensitive Study Cohort in 2004, who received the chronic salt intake intervention, including a 7-day low-salt diet (3.0 g/day) and a 7-day high-salt diet (18 g/day), were analyzed. Besides, the development of hypertension over 14 years was evaluated. NEDD4L single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs74408486 was shown to be significantly associated with systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) responses to low-salt diet, while SNPs rs292449 and rs2288775 were significantly associated with pulse pressure (PP) response to high-salt diet. In addition, SNP rs4149605, rs73450471, and rs482805 were significantly associated with the longitudinal changes in SBP, DBP, MAP, or PP at 14 years of follow-up. SNP rs292449 was significantly associated with hypertension incidence over the 14-year follow-up. Finally, this gene-based analysis found that NEDD4L was significantly associated with longitudinal BP changes and the incidence of hypertension over the 14-year follow-up. This study indicated that gene polymorphism in NEDD4L serve an important function in salt sensitivity, longitudinal BP change and development of hypertension in the Chinese population.

TRIB3 promoter 33 bp VNTR is associated with the risk of cerebrovascular disease in type 2 diabetic patients. Front Genet 2022; 13:916281. [PMID: 36105108 PMCID: PMC9464918 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.916281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that TRIB3 is closely related to insulin resistance, metabolic disorders and vascular diseases. Recently, it was reported that a 33 bp variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) located in the TRIB3 promoter could considerably alter its transcriptional activity. Nonetheless, whether the shift of TRIB3 transcriptional activity has the effect of inducing diabetic vascular complications is still unclear. Therefore, in our study, we aimed to explore the relationship between the TRIB3 33bp VNTR and diabetic vascular complications. The TRIB3 33bp VNTR polymorphisms were determined by PCR and Sanger sequencing, a total of 798 eligible Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) were included in our study and then evaluated with clinical data. After adjusting for age, gender, BMI, smoking history, drinking history and duration of diabetes, we found that the high number of 33 bp tandem repeats (repeats>8) was significantly associated with an increase in the risk of cerebrovascular diseases compared with the low number of 33 bp tandem repeats (repeats≤6) in patients with T2DM(OR 2.66, 95% CI 1.29–5.47, p = 0.008). The intermediate number of 33bp tandem repeats (6 < repeat≤8) was markedly associated with a decreased risk of diabetic retinopathy compared with the low number of tandem repeats (OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.46–0.91, p = 0.012). Adjusting for gender, age and BMI, there was a significant difference in DBP levels among patients with the number of different 33 bp tandem repeats (Low vs. Intermediate vs. High, 81.6 ± 12.8 vs. 79.8 ± 12.4 vs. 78.7 ± 12.6 mmHg; p = 0.045). Subgroup analysis found that TRIB3 VNTR was significantly correlated with the difference in systolic blood pressure (SBP) in T2DM patients taking ACEI/ARB drugs (Low vs. Intermediate vs. High, 146.27 ± 18.23 vs. 140.01 ± 19.91 vs. 140.77 ± 18.64 mmHg; p = 0.018). Our results indicated that TRIB3 promoter 33bp VNTR is related to vascular diseases in T2DM patients, and may serve as a new biomarker for individualized prevention and therapy of T2DM.

Yi-Xin-Shu capsule ameliorates cardiac hypertrophy by regulating RB/HDAC1/GATA4 signaling pathway based on proteomic and mass spectrometry image analysis. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 103:154185.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac hypertrophy (CH) forms the main pathological basis of chronic heart failure (CHF). Mitigating and preventing CH is the key strategy for the treatment of ventricular remodeling in CHF. Yi-Xin-Shu capsule (YXS) has been commonly applied in the clinical treatment of CHF in Asian countries for several decades. However, the underlying mechanism of YXS has not been revealed yet. PURPOSE To assess the efficiency of YXS in CH and identify its potential therapeutic targets for the managing of CH. METHOD Ultrasonic cardiogram was used to evaluate the cardiac function of CH rats. Hematein Eosin (HE)-staining, Masson-staining and transmission electron microscope were used to measure the morphological changes, cardiac fibrosis degree and ultrastructure characteristics of cardiomyocytes, respectively. ELISA was used to detect the myocardial injury biomarkers. Then, the potential targets regulated by YXS were screened out via proteomic analysis and mass spectrometry image analysis. Finally, the targets were validated by real-time quantitative (RT-q) PCR, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, and western-blotting methods. RESULTS YXS improved the cardiac function of CH rats and attenuated the injuries in morphology and subcellular structure of cardiomyocytes. A core protein-protein interaction network was established on differentially expressed proteins (DEP) using proteomics analysis. GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4) was identified as the key target regulated by YXS. The results of mass spectrometry image analysis indicated that the expressions of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) and retinoblastoma (RB) could also be regulated by YXS. Further valuative experiments showed that YXS may attenuate CH by regulating the RB/HDAC1/GATA4 signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, this study discloses the precise mechanism investigation of the efficacy of YXS against CH. These data demonstrate that YXS may protect against CH by regulating the RB/HDAC1/GATA4 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Hypertension is a frequent finding in elderly patients. Hypertension in older age can be both associated with frailty and represent a risk factor for frailty. Hypertension is recognized as a main risk factor for cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and stroke and the occurrence of these diseases may provoke a decline in health status and/or worsen the degree of frailty. Blood pressure targets in hypertensive older and frail patients are not completely defined. However, specific evaluations of individual patients and their co-morbidities and assessment of domains and components of frailty, together with weighted consideration of drug use, may help in finding the appropriate therapy.

The immunomodulatory effects of antihypertensive therapy: A review. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 153:113287.

Abstract
Hypertension remains the leading preventable risk factor for stroke and coronary artery disease, significantly contributing to all-cause global mortality and predisposing patients to renal and heart failure, as well as peripheral vascular disease. Due to the widespread usage of antihypertensive drugs, global mean blood pressure has remained unchanged or even slightly decreased over the past four decades. However, considering the broad spectrum of mechanisms involved in the action of antihypertensive drugs and the prevalence of their target receptors on immune cells, possible immunomodulatory effects which may exert beneficial effects of lowering blood pressure but also potentially alter immune function should be considered. In this review, we attempt to assess the consequences to immune system function of administering the five most commonly prescribed groups of antihypertensive drugs and to explain the mechanisms behind those interactions. Finally, we show potential gaps in our understanding of the effects of antihypertensive drugs on patient health. With regard to the widespread use of these drugs in the adult population worldwide, the discussed results may be of vital importance to evidence-based decision-making in daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) plays important roles within the cardiovascular system in physiological states as well as in pathophysiologic and specific cardiovascular (CV) disease states, such as hypertension (HTN), arteriosclerosis, and cerebrovascular accidents. This review discusses the roles of the endothelial NOS (eNOS) and its effect on cardiovascular responses that are induced by nociceptive stimuli. The roles of eNOS enzyme in modulating CV functions while experiencing pain will be discussed. Nociception, otherwise known as the subjective experience of pain through sensory receptors, termed "nociceptors", can be stimulated by various external or internal stimuli. In turn, events of various cascade pathways implicating eNOS contribute to a plethora of pathophysiological responses to the noxious pain stimuli. Nociception pathways involve various regions of the brain and spinal cord, including the dorsolateral periaqueductal gray matter (PAG), rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), caudal ventrolateral medulla, and intermediolateral column of the spinal cord. These pathways can interrelate in nociceptive responses to pain stimuli. The alterations in CV responses that affect GABAergic and glutamatergic pathways will be discussed in relation to mechanical and thermal (heat and cold) stimuli. Overall, this paper will discuss the aggregate recent and past data regarding pain pathways and the CV system.

Association of AGTR1 A1166C and CYP2C9∗3 Gene Polymorphisms with the Antihypertensive Effect of Valsartan. Int J Hypertens 2022; 2022:7677252. [PMID: 35345577 PMCID: PMC8957473 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7677252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 01/27/2022] [Accepted: 02/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The differences in the antihypertensive treatment with angiotensin type II receptor blockers (ARBs) may be attributed to polymorphisms in genes involving drug-targeted receptor and drug metabolism. The present study aimed to investigate whether the antihypertensive effect of the ARB drug valsartan was associated with angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AGTR1) gene polymorphism (A1166 C) and cytochrome P450 enzyme 2C9 (CYP2C9) gene polymorphism (CYP2C9∗3). Methods 281 patients with hypertension who received valsartan monotherapy in the past month were included in this retrospective study. Polymerase chain reaction-melting curve analysis was performed to genotype the AGTR1 and CYP2C9 gene polymorphisms. Based on the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at the time of visit, the patients were divided into well-controlled group (n = 144, SBP/DBP <140/90 mmHg) and poorly controlled group (n = 137, SBP/DBP ≥140/90 mmHg). Results Older age, decreased history of drinking, a higher proportion of mild-to-moderate hypertension, lower alanine aminotransferase levels, and higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were observed in the well-controlled group than the poorly controlled group. Higher frequencies of the C allele and AC + CC genotype of AGTR1 A1166C were detected in the well-controlled than the poorly controlled patients (P = 0.005 and P = 0.006). After adjustment for demographic and environmental factors, the CC + AC genotype of AGTR1 A1166C was markedly linked to better hypertension control with valsartan treatment compared to the AA genotype (odds ratio: 2.836, 95% confidence interval: 1.199–6.705, P = 0.018). No significant difference was observed in the allele or genotype distribution of CYP2C9∗3 polymorphism between well-controlled and poorly controlled patients. Conclusions The current data suggested that the AGTR1 A1166 C polymorphism may be associated with the antihypertensive effect of valsartan, and carriers with AC and CC genotypes may have a better antihypertensive efficacy response to valsartan treatment.

Abstract
Hypertension is a major modifiable risk factor that affects the global health burden. Despite the availability of multiple antihypertensive drugs, blood pressure is often not optimally controlled. The prevalence of true resistant hypertension in treated hypertensive patients is ~2-20%, and these patients are at higher risk for adverse events and poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, an in-depth dissection of the pathophysiological mechanisms of hypertension and resistant hypertension is needed to identify more effective targets for regulating blood pressure. Omics technologies, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and microbiomics, can accurately present the characteristics of organisms at varying molecular levels. Integrative omics can further reveal the network of interactions between molecular levels and provide a complete dynamic view of the organism. In this review, we describe the applications, progress, and challenges of omics technologies in hypertension. Specifically, we discuss the application of omics in resistant hypertension. We believe that omics approaches will produce a better understanding of the pathogenesis of hypertension and resistant hypertension and improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, thus increasing rates of blood pressure control and reducing the public health burden of hypertension.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypertension is one of the most important risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and its control rates remain low worldwide. The most effective strategy is that patients with hypertension should be diagnosed and treated early. Preliminary studies showed that the Bushen Jiangya granule (BSJY) could suppress ventricular hypertrophy and inflammatory responses, lower blood pressure, and protect the target organs of hypertension. We designed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of BSJY in patients with low-to-medium risk hypertension. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This trial is a one-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. A total of 260 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to an experimental group (BSJY plus amlodipine) and a control group (placebo plus amlodipine). The trial cycle will last 8 weeks. The primary outcome is the change in 24-h average systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The secondary outcomes include heart rate variability, pharmacogenomic evaluation, improvement in TCM syndrome, and serum pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokines between the two groups. The safety of medication will also be evaluated. All the data will be recorded in electronic case report forms and analyzed by SPSS V.22.0. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has been approved by the Research Ethics Committee of Guang'anmen Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in Beijing, China (No. 2019-186-KY-01). The participants are volunteers, understand the process of this trial, and sign an informed consent. The results of this study will be disseminated to the public through peer-reviewed journals and academic conferences. DISCUSSION We hypothesize that patients with low-to-medium-risk hypertension will benefit from BSJY. If successful, this study will provide evidence-based recommendations for clinicians. TRIAL REGISTRATION Chinese Clinical Trial Registry ChiMCTR1900002876. Registered in November 2019.

Abstract
Precision medicine exemplifies the emergence of personalized treatment options which may benefit specific patient populations based upon their genetic makeup. Application of pharmacogenomics requires an understanding of how genetic variations impact pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. This particular approach in pharmacotherapy is helpful because it can assist in and improve clinical decisions. Application of pharmacogenomics to cardiovascular pharmacotherapy provides for the ability of the medical provider to gain critical knowledge on a patient's response to various treatment options and risk of side effects.

Abstract
Zou and colleagues are publishing in this issue of The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, result of one of their studies in which they found that human corin genetic polymorphisms is involved in blood pressure control, more specifically in salt sensitivity. It is being published in this journal shortly after a literature review indicated another 18 genes were also involved in salt sensitivity, however corin gene. This dynamism of newly discovered genes shows the complexity of studying the genetic control of arterial hypertension and explains its known preliotropic characteristic. In this commentary, the study by Zou and colleagues is placed in the context of recent evidence on the genetics of high blood pressure and the future perspectives resulting from this and other studies are presented in the context of the clinical application of genetics in the prevention and treatment of high blood pressure.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) rank as one of the top 10 leading causes of death and illness in developed countries. ADRs show differential features depending upon genotype, age, sex, race, pathology, drug category, route of administration, and drug–drug interactions. Pharmacogenomics (PGx) provides the physician effective clues for optimizing drug efficacy and safety in major problems of health such as cardiovascular disease and associated disorders, cancer and brain disorders. Important aspects to be considered are also the impact of immunopharmacogenomics in cutaneous ADRs as well as the influence of genomic factors associated with COVID-19 and vaccination strategies. Major limitations for the routine use of PGx procedures for ADRs prevention are the lack of education and training in physicians and pharmacists, poor characterization of drug-related PGx, unspecific biomarkers of drug efficacy and toxicity, cost-effectiveness, administrative problems in health organizations, and insufficient regulation for the generalized use of PGx in the clinical setting. The implementation of PGx requires: (i) education of physicians and all other parties involved in the use and benefits of PGx; (ii) prospective studies to demonstrate the benefits of PGx genotyping; (iii) standardization of PGx procedures and development of clinical guidelines; (iv) NGS and microarrays to cover genes with high PGx potential; and (v) new regulations for PGx-related drug development and PGx drug labelling.

Abstract
Plateau essential hypertension is a common chronic harmful disease of permanent residents in plateau areas. Studies have shown some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associations with hypertension, but few have been verified in plateau area-lived people. In this paper, we examined some hypertension-related gene loci to analyze the relationship between risk SNPs and plateau essential hypertension in residents in Qinghai-Tibet plateau area. We screened hypertension-related SNPs from the literature, Clinvar database, GHR database, GTR database, and GWAS database, and then selected 101 susceptible SNPs for detection. Illumina MiSeq NGS platform was used to perform DNA sequencing on the blood samples from 185 Tibetan dwellings of Qinghai, and bioinformatic tools were used to make genotyping. Genetic models adjusted by gender and age were used to calculate the risk effects of genotypes. Four known SNPs as well as a new locus were found associated with PHE, which were rs2493134 (AGT), rs9349379 (PHACTR1), rs1371182 (CYP2C56P-PRPS1P1), rs567481079 (CYP2C56P-PRPS1P1), and chr14:61734822 (HIF1A). Among them, genotypes of rs2493134, rs9349379, and rs567481079 were risk factors, genotypes of rs1371182 and chr14:61734822 were protective factors. The rs2493134 in AGT was found associated with an increased risk of the plateau essential hypertension by 3.24-, 3.24-, and 2.06-fold in co-dominant, dominant, and Log-additive models, respectively. The rs9349379 in PHACTR1 is associated with a 2.61-fold increased risk of plateau essential hypertension according to the dominant model. This study reveals that the alleles of AGT, HIF1A, and PHACTR1 are closely related to plateau essential hypertension risk in the plateau Tibetan population.
