  • Abstract:

    Objective

    We conducted a genome-wide association study of blood pressure in an open-label study of the methylphenidate transdermal system (MTS) for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

    Method

    Genotyping was conducted with the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0. Multivariate association analyses were conducted using the software package PLINK. After data cleaning and quality control we tested 316,934 SNPs in 140 children with ADHD.

    Results

    We observed no genome-wide statistically significant findings, but a SNP in a K+-dependent Na+/Ca2+ exchanger expressed in vascular smooth muscle (SLC24A3) was included in our top associations at p < 1E-04. Genetic enrichment analyses of genes with ≥ 1 SNP significant at p < 0.01, implicated several functional categories (FERM domain, p = 5.0E-07; immunoglobulin domain, p = 8.1E-06; the transmembrane region, p = 4.4E-05; channel activity, p = 2.0E-04; and type-III fibronectins, p = 2.7E-05) harboring genes previously associated with related cardiovascular phenotypes.

    Conclusions

    The hypothesis generating results from this study suggests that polymorphisms in several genes consistently associated with cardiovascular diseases may impact changes in blood pressure observed with methylphenidate pharmacotherapy in children with ADHD.
