Genetic Variants of MicroRNA and DROSHA Genes in Association With the Risk of Tuberculosis in the Amazon Population.

ABSTRACT: Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) with high incidence and mortality. Studies reported that host genetic variants might be associated with the risk of tuberculosis. The aim of this study was to perform an association study between 26 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and tuberculosis and evaluate whether these SNPs may confer risk factors to tuberculosis in the Amazon population. There were 52 males and 126 females, with total of 178 healthy controls. Genotyping was performed using TaqMan Open Array Genotyping. Ancestry-informative markers were used to estimate the ancestral proportions of the individuals in the case and control groups. The results indicated that the SNPs rs10035440 (DROSHA), rs7372209 (miR26-a1), rs1834306 (miR100), rs4919510 (miR608), and rs10739971 (pri-let-7a-1) were significantly associated with high risk and rs3746444 (miR499) and rs6505162 (miR423), with low risk of developing tuberculosis in the Amazon population. Our study concluded that seven miRNA polymorphisms were associated with tuberculosis. Our study contributes to a better understanding of TB pathogenesis and may promote the development of new diagnostic tools against M. tuberculosis infection.

Project description:BackgroundMicroRNA (miRNA) processing machinery gene variant was associated with several diseases. We aimed to explore for the first time the association of machinery gene (DROSHA rs10719A/G; DICER1 rs3742330A/G; RAN rs14035C/T; and XPO5 rs11077T/G) variants with the susceptibility and phenotype of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).MethodA total of 281 participants (98 ESRD patients and 183 healthy volunteers) were enrolled. Real-Time TaqMan allelic discrimination assay was applied for the genotyping of the specified variants. Multiple logistic regression models, univariate, multivariate, and principal component analyses were carried out.ResultsCarrying one DICER1 rs3742330*G allele conferred protection against developing ESRD [heterozygote comparison: OR = 0.30, 95% CI = 0.15-0.62, dominant model: OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.17-0.70]. Similarly, for XPO5 rs11077T/G, homozygote and heterozygote carriers of G variant were less likely to develop ESRD [homozygote comparison: adjusted OR = 0.23, 95% CI = 0.11-0.50, and heterozygote comparison: OR = 0.50, 95% CI = 0.22-0.92, and allelic model: OR = 0.46, 95% CI = 0.34-0.70]. RAN rs14035*TT subjects were 5 times more likely to develop ESRD while being heterozygote (CT) have twice the risk [homozygote comparison: 5.18, 95% CI = 2.28-11.8, heterozygote comparison: OR = 2.12, 95% CI = 1.10-409]. Subgroup analysis also detected DICER1 rs3742330*A, XPO5 rs11077*T, and RAN rs14035*T as genetic risk determinants for ESRD development in both sex and age categories. Two genotype combinations of DROSHA/DICER1/XPO5/RAN were associated with increased susceptibility to ESRD [A-A-T-T: OR = 9.49, 95%CI = 2.48-36.31 (P = .001) and G-A-T-T: OR = 5.92, 95%CI = 1.77-19.83 (P = .004), respectively].ConclusionVariants and combined genotypes of DICER1 rs3742330, XPO5 rs11077, and RAN rs14035 might be associated with ESRD development in the study population. Integrating molecular analysis in ESRD risk stratification is warranted.
