Effect of AMPK Subunit Alpha 2 Polymorphisms on Postherpetic Pain Susceptibility in Southwestern Han Chinese.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) can influence energy metabolism. Energy metabolism imbalance is closely associated with the occurrence of neuropathic pain (NeP). Rs10789038 and rs2796498 are genetic polymorphisms of PRKAA2, the gene encoding AMPK, which is closely related to energy metabolism imbalance. This study aimed to explore the relationship between PRKAA2 and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) in the southwestern Chinese Han population.

Methods

This study enrolled 132 PHN patients and 118 healthy subjects. The rs10789038 and rs2796498 PRKAA2 genotypes were identified in all participants. The association between these single nucleotide polymorphisms and PHN susceptibility was evaluated in the dominant and recessive models. Haplotype analysis of patients with PHN and healthy controls was performed.

Results

The PHN patients were older than the healthy subjects (P < 0.05); however, the other clinical characteristics between two groups were not significantly different (all P >0.05). Genotypes and allele frequencies differed significantly between PHN patients and healthy subjects in the rs10789038 polymorphism (P < 0.05), but not in rs2796498 (P > 0.05). In addition, the GG haplotype of rs10789038-rs2796498 correlated negatively with PHN occurrence in haplotype analysis (P < 0.05).

Conclusion

PHN occurrence may be related to the PRKAA2 rs10789038 A>G genetic polymorphism in the southwestern Chinese Han population.

Project description:BackgroundThe tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) gene plays an important role in the host immune response, which will influence the development and clearance of cancer. Polymorphism of the TNF-α promoter region is considered to influence its transcription and be a risk factor for tumorigenesis. In the current study, we evaluated the role of TNF-α promoter region polymorphisms in susceptibility to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer (CC).MethodsA total of 2732 subjects, including 1173 healthy controls, 579 patients with CIN and 980 patients with CC in a Chinese Han population, were selected for the current study. Five SNPs in the TNF-α promoter, rs1799964 (-1031 C>T), rs1800630 (-863 A>C), rs1799724 (-857 C>T), rs1800629 (-308 A>G) and rs361525 (-238 A>G), were selected and genotyped using TaqMan Assays. The association of these SNPs with CIN and cervical cancer was evaluated among healthy controls, CIN and CC patients.ResultsThe frequency distribution of rs1800629 and rs361525 alleles was significantly different between the CC group and the control group (P=0.009 and P=0.002). The rs1800629 A allele was found to be a protective factor for CC (OR=0.72; 95% CI=0.56-0.92). The rs361525 A allele was found to be a risk factor for CC (OR=1.69; 95% CI=1.21-2.38). After pathological subtyping of CC, the allele distribution of rs1800629 and rs361525 were both significantly different between the cervical squamous cell carcinoma and control groups (P=0.002 and P<0.001). The rs1800629 A allele was protective factor for cervical squamous cell carcinoma (OR=0.66; 95% CI=0.50-0.86). The rs361525 A allele was a risk factor for cervical squamous cell carcinoma (OR=1.87; 95% CI=1.32-2.65). Moreover, the genotypic frequency of rs361525 was significantly different between cervical cancer stage I and stage II (P=0.003).ConclusionThe rs1800629 and rs361525 in the TNF-α promoter are associated with susceptibility to CC in the Chinese Han population.
