Interaction of Alcohol Consumption and ABCG2 rs2231142 Variant Contributes to Hyperuricemia in a Taiwanese Population.

ABSTRACT: ABCG2 rs2231142 is an important genetic factor that contributes to the development of gout and hyperuricemia (HUA). Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that lifestyle risk factors of HUA (e.g., alcohol consumption) and genetic predisposition (e.g., ABCG2 gene) together, contribute to enhanced serum uric acid levels. However, the interaction between ABCG2 rs2231142, alcohol consumption, and HUA in the Taiwanese population is still unclear. Therefore, this study investigated whether the risk of HUA is associated with ABCG2 rs2231142 variants and how this is affected by alcohol consumption. study subjects were selected from the participants of the Taiwan Biobank database. Overall, 114,540 participants aged 30 to 70 years were enrolled in this study. The interaction between ABCG2 rs2231142, alcohol consumption, and serum uric acid (sUA) levels was analyzed by multiple logistic regression models. the prevalence of HUA was 32.7% and 4.4 % in the male and female populations, respectively. In the whole study population, the minor T allele of ABCG2 rs2231142 was significantly associated with HUA risk, and the occurrence of HUA was high in TT genotype and TG genotype. The risk of HUA was significantly increased by the combined association of ABCG2 rs2231142 and alcohol consumption for TG/TT genotype compared to the GG genotype (wild-type genotype), especially among women. the ABCG2 rs2231142 is a crucial genetic locus for sUA levels in the Taiwanese population and our findings revealed that alcohol consumption combined with the ABCG2 rs2231142 risk allele contributes to increased HUA risk.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The ABCG2 rs2231142 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is one of the most significant genetic variants associated with hyperuricemia (HUA) in Asian populations. However, the risk of ABCG2 rs2231142 variants for HUA could interact with other important HUA risk variants and cardiovascular factors. This study investigated the effects of the combined association among ABCG2 rs2231142 and multiple HUA genetic variants or cardiovascular risk factors on HUA risk and serum uric acid (sUA) levels in an elderly Chinese population. METHODS:A total of 1206 participants over 65?years old were enrolled in this study. Physical and laboratory examinations were performed for all participants. The ABCG2 rs2231142, SLC2A9 rs3733591, and SLC22A12 rs893006 SNPs were assayed using a standardized protocol. Logistic regression analysis and liner regression were adjusted respectively to account for the association between ABCG2 rs2231142 and other genetic variants, as well as between cardiovascular risk factors and HUA risk and sUA levels. RESULTS:The prevalence of HUA was 14.71% in the elderly community-dwelling population. The ABCG2 rs2231142 risk T allele was associated with HUA risk (odds ratio (OR)?=?1.63, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.27-2.11; p?=?1.65?×?10-?4) and with increased sUA levels (Beta?=?0.16, p?=?6.75?×?10-?9) in the whole study population. Linear regression analysis showed that the mean sUA level increased linearly with the number of risk alleles of the three candidate genetic variants (Beta?=?0.18, p?=?1.94?×?10-?12) The joint effect of the ABCG2 rs2231142 T allele and cardiovascular risk factors (obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia) was also associated with increased HUA risk and sUA levels. Each copy of the risk T allele was significantly associated with enhanced HUA risk in patients with hypertriglyceridemia (OR?=?2.52, 95% CI: 1.33-4.60; p?=?0.003) compared to controls. CONCLUSION:Our findings reinforce the importance of the ABCG2 rs2231143 variant as a crucial genetic locus for HUA in Chinese populations and demonstrated the combined effects of multiple genetic risk variants and cardiovascular risk exposures on HUA risk and increased sUA level.

Project description:Objectives: Genetic variants and obesity are risk factors for hyperuricemia (HUA). Recent genome-wide association studies have identified ABCG2 rs2231142 as one of the most prominent genetic variants for HUA in an East Asian population. Nevertheless, no large-scale studies have demonstrated any interactive effects between this variant and obesity on serum urate level in Asians. This study aimed to determine the interaction of ABCG2 rs2231142 variant and body mass index (BMI) and its effect on risk of HUA in an East Asian population. Methods: The study was conducted using the Taiwan Biobank database, a population-based biomedical research database of patients with Taiwanese Han Chinese ancestry aged 30-70years between September 2014 and May 2017. Detailed physical information on participants were collected by questionnaires and genotyping using Affymetrix TWB 650K SNP chip. The primary outcome was HUA, defined as a serum uric acid level>7.0mg/dl. Odds ratio (OR) of HUA was analyzed using logistic regression models and the effects of interaction between ABCG2 rs2231142 variants and BMI on serum uric acid level were explored. Results: We identified 25,245 subjects, 4,228 (16.75%) of whom had HUA. The prevalence of HUA was 30% in men and 3.8% in women. The risk of HUA was significantly associated with ABCG2 rs2231142 risk T allele, with more HUA in TT genotype (OR: 2.40, 95% CI: 2.11-2.72, p<0.001) and TG genotype (OR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.51-1.78, p<0.001) in men, and TT genotype (OR: 2.42, 95% CI: 1.83-3.20, p<0.001) and TG genotype (OR: 1.82, 95% CI: 1.46-2.23, p<0.001) in women, compared with their counterparts. Moreover, we found a strong genetic-environmental interaction associated with the risk of HUA. There was increased risk of HUA by the interaction of ABCG2 rs2231142 variant and BMI for TT genotype (OR: 7.42, 95% CI: 2.54-21.7, p<0.001) and TG genotype (OR: 4.25, 95% CI: 2.13-8.47, p<0.001) in men compared with the GG genotype in men, and for TT genotype (OR: 25.43, 95% CI: 3.75-172.41, p<0.001) and TG genotype (OR: 3.05, 95% CI: 0.79-11.71, p=0.011) in women compared with the GG genotype in women. Conclusion: The risk of HUA was markedly increased by the interaction of ABCG2 rs2231142 variant and BMI, both in men and in women. Body weight control and reduction in BMI are recommended in high-risk patients with the ABCG2 rs2231142 risk T allele.

Project description:Most disease single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are regulatory and approximately half of heritability is occupied by the top 1% of genes, with the gene-level structure varying with the number of variants associated with the most common alleles. Cancer occurrence and progression are significantly affected by Claspin (CLSPN) gene polymorphism present in the population, which alters the expression, function, and regulation of the gene. CLSPN genotypes are associated with oral cancer, but the literature on this association is limited. As a result, the goal of this study is to investigate the correlation between CLSPN genotypes and oral cancers' development. This study will explore the presence of four CLSPN SNPs including rs12058760, rs16822339, rs535638 and rs7520495 gene polymorphisms, and analyze the expression of these genes in 304 cancer-free controls and 402 oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cases. Attempts have been made to obtain insight into the role of CLSPN gene polymorphisms in oral cancer through the analysis of this study. We demonstrated that the OSCC risk of individuals with four CLSPN SNPs relative to the wild type did not differ significantly from that of the wild type when the polymorphisms are analyzed according to individual habits. We further studied the mechanism by which CLSPN polymorphisms affect the progression of clinicopathological features in OSCC patients. The results of the degree of cell differentiation showed that compared with patients of rs7520495 SNP carrying the CC genotype, the incidence of poor cell differentiation in patients carrying the CC + GG genotype was higher (AOR: 1.998-fold; 95% CI, 1.127-3.545; p = 0.018). In particular, patients with the G genotype of rs7520495 had increased poor cell differentiation compared with patients with the C genotype (AOR: 4.736-fold; 95% CI, 1.306-17.178; p = 0.018), especially in the drinking group. On the basis of our analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas dataset, we found that higher CLSPN levels were associated with poorer cell differentiation in oral cancers. In this study, we provide the first evidence showing that CLSPN SNPs contribute to oral cancer. Whether or not rs7520495 can be used as a confirmatory factor in the future is uncertain, but it seems likely that it can be used as an important factor in predicting recurrence, response to treatment and medication toxicity to patients with oral cancer.
