Variations in the Frequencies of Polymorphisms in the CYP450s Genes in Eight Major Ethnicities of Iran: A Review of the Human Data.

ABSTRACT: Genetic polymorphisms in cytochrome P450 genes can cause variation in metabolism. Thus, single nucleotide variants significantly impact drug pharmacokinetics, toxicity factors, and efficacy and safety of medicines. The distribution of CYP450 alleles varies drastically across ethnicities, with significant implications for personalized medicine and the healthcare system. We combined whole-genome and exome sequencing data to provide a review of CYP450 allele polymorphisms with clinical importance. Data were collected from 800 unrelated Iranians (100 subjects from 8 major ethnicities of Iran), more than 32,000 unrelated Europeans (other than Caucasian), and four Middle Eastern countries. We analyzed the frequencies and similarities of 17 CYP450 frequent alleles related to nine important CYP450 isoenzymes and homozygous and heterozygous genotypes based on these alleles in eight major Iranian ethnics by integrating these data with population-specific linkage information and compared these datasets with mentioned populations.

Project description:The contribution of human genes to the variability of disease outcomes has been shown to be important across infectious diseases. Studies have shown mutations within specific human genes are associated with variable COVID-19 outcomes. We focused on the SARS-CoV-2 receptors/co-receptors to identify the role of specific polymorphisms within ACE2, TMPRSS2, NRP1 and CD147. Polymorphisms within ACE2 (rs2285666), TMPRSS2 (rs12329760), CD147 (rs8259) and NRP1 (rs10080) have been shown to associate with COVID-19 severity. Using cryopreserved samples from COVID-19-positive African, European and South Asian individuals within South Africa, we determined genotype frequencies. The genetic variant rs2285666 was associated with COVID-19 severity with an ethnic bias. African individuals with a CC genotype demonstrate more severe COVID-19 outcomes (OR = 7.5; 95% CI 1.164-80.89; p = 0.024) compared with those with a TT genotype. The expressions of ACE2 and SARS-CoV-2 viral load were measured using droplet digital PCR. Our results demonstrate rs2285666 and rs10080 were significantly associated with increased SARS-CoV-2 viral load and worse outcomes in certain ethnicities. This study demonstrates two important findings. Firstly, SARS-CoV-2 viral load is significantly lower in Africans compared with individuals of European and South Asian descent (p = 0.0002 and p < 0.0001). Secondly, SARS-CoV-2 viral load associates with specific SARS-CoV-2 receptor variants. A limited number of studies have examined the receptor/co-receptor genes within Africa. This study investigated genetic variants within the SARS-CoV-2 receptor/co-receptor genes and their association with COVID-19 severity and SARS-CoV-2 viral load across different ethnicities. We provide a genetic basis for differences in COVID-19 severity across ethnic groups in South Africa, further highlighting the importance of further investigation to determine potential therapeutic targets and to guide vaccination strategies that may prioritize specific genotypes.
