Purpose Sulfotransferase 1A1 is a member of sulfotransferase family that plays an important role in the biotransformation of numerous carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds through sulfation. The present study has investigated the association between SULT1A1 polymorphism and primary brain tumor incidence. Methods SULT1A1 genotypes were successfully detected using the PCR-RFLP assay in 60 primary brain tumor patients and 156 hospital-based healthy control individuals with no history of cancer or precancerous disorder. Results There was a significant difference in genotypes distribution (GG vs. GA + AA) between brain tumor patients (GG genotype frequency = 48.3%) and control population (GG genotype frequency = 65.4%; OR = 2.019, 95% CI = 1.103–3.695; P = 0.022). In order to determine the association between SULT1A1 polymorphism and specific types of brain tumors, the patients were classified according to the type of brain tumors they suffer from: glial and non-glial. Results of the statistical analyses of each group of patients in comparison with the control individuals showed a significant difference only between SULT1A1 polymorphism and non-glial brain tumors (OR = 2.615; 95% CI = 1.192–5.739; P = 0.014) but glial tumors (OR = 1.535; 95% CI = 0.688–3.425; P = 0.293). When non-glial tumors were classified as meningiomal and others (pituitary adenoma, craniopharyngioma, acoustic neuroma and hemangioblastoma), statistical analysis showed that this significance is only due to the meningiomal tumors (OR = 3.238; CI = 1.205–8.704; P = 0.015). We also estimated a reduced risk of brain tumor in non-smokers (OR = 1.700; CI = 0.800–3.615) in comparison to smokers (OR = 2.773; CI = 0.993–7.749), but this was not statistically significant. Conclusion Our findings have suggested that there was a significant association between brain tumor and SULT1A1*2 allele (A allele that is also known as His allele) and this allele is an important risk factor in the development of meningiomal brain tumors.  相似文献

Abstract:  Administration of melatonin to rodents decreases the incidence of tumorigenesis initiated by benzo[ a ]pyrene or 7,12-dimethylbenz[ a ]anthracene, which requires bioactivation by cytochrome P450 enzymes, such as CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP1B1, to produce carcinogenic metabolites. The present study tested the hypothesis that melatonin is a modulator of human CYP1 catalytic activity and gene expression. As a comparison, we also investigated the effect of melatonin on the catalytic activity of CYP2A6, which is also a procarcinogen-bioactivating enzyme. Melatonin (3–300 μ m ) decreased 7-ethoxyresorufin O -dealkylation catalyzed by human hepatic microsomes and recombinant CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP1B1, whereas it did not affect coumarin 7-hydroxylation catalyzed by hepatic microsomes or recombinant CYP2A6. Melatonin inhibited CYP1 enzymes by mixed inhibition, with apparent K i values (mean ± S.E.M.) of 59 ± 1 (CYP1A1), 12 ± 1 (CYP1A2), 14 ± 2 (CYP1B1) and 46 ± 8 μ m (hepatic microsomes). Additional experiments indicated that melatonin decreased benzo[ a ]pyrene hydroxylation catalyzed by hepatic microsomes and CYP1A2 but not by CYP1A1 or CYP1B1. Treatment of MCF-10A human mammary epithelial cells with melatonin (up to 300 μ m ) did not affect basal or benzo[ a ]pyrene-inducible CYP1A1 or CYP1B1 gene expression. Consistent with this finding, melatonin did not influence reporter activity in aryl hydrocarbon receptor-dependent pGudluc6.1-transfected MCF-10A cells treated with or without benzo[ a ]pyrene, as assessed in an in vitro cell-based luciferase reporter gene assay. Overall, melatonin is an in vitro inhibitor of human CYP1 catalytic activity, and it may be useful to develop potent analogues of melatonin as potential cancer chemopreventive agents that block CYP1-mediated chemical carcinogenesis.  相似文献

Our meta-analysis was aimed to evaluate the association of CYP1A1 and glutathione-S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) polymorphisms with oral cancer susceptibility.The related articles were searched in PubMed, Embase, and CNKI databases. Fifty eligible studies were included in our meta-analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the relationship of CYP1A1 (rs4646903 and rs1048943) and GSTM1 polymorphisms with oral cancer risk. A random-effects model or fixed-effects model was employed depending on the heterogeneity.In overall analysis, CYP1A1 rs4646903 polymorphism was associated with the risk of oral cancer (CC vs TT: OR 1.65, 95% CI 1.33–2.05; CC vs TC+TT: OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.48–2.11; C vs T: OR 1.17, 95% CI 1.07–1.28), whereas rs1048943 showed no obvious association with oral cancer susceptibility. Moreover, subgroup analysis by ethnicity demonstrated that rs4646903 and rs1048943 both related with increased risk of oral cancer in Asians. Moreover, the analysis based on source of control suggested that rs4646903 could increase the risk for oral cancer in both population- and hospital-based populations, whereas no remarkable relationship of rs1048943 with oral cancer susceptibility was observed. For GSTM1 gene, null genotype appeared to be a risk factor for oral cancer (null vs present: OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.12–1.34), which was also proved in the subgroup analysis.The results demonstrated that CYP1A1 rs4646903 and null genotype of GSTM1 polymorphisms might serve as risk factors for oral cancer.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms in the uridine-diphosphoglucurono-syltransferase (UGT) UGT1A7 and UGT1A1 genes and patients suffering from colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS: A case-control study was designed in order to investigate the genotypes of the UGT1A7 and UGT1A1 genes, which were identified by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method, for 268 CRC patients and 441 healthy controls. RESULTS: The results of simple logistical regressions revealed odds ratios (ORs) of 1.97 (P<0.001),1.91 (P<0.001),and 2.03 (P<0.001) for patients who carried the UGT1A7*1/*3 genotype,UGT1A7*3 allele,and variant-211 UGT1A1 allele.The interaction of UGT1A7*3 allele and variant-211 UGT1A1 allele produced an additive effect on the risk for the development of CRC [observed OR (2.34) greater than expected OR (1.59)]. For the 268 patients, the results of simple logistical regressions indicated that the OR of developing metastases was 4.90 (P<0.001) and 4.89 (P<0.001) for the individuals possessing UGT1A7*3 allele and variant-211 UGT1A1 allele, respectively. The results of multivariate logistical regressions confirmed these findings (OR = 2.51, P= 0.01; and OR=2.71,P=0.01,respectively).The interaction of these two variants resulted in an additive effect on the risk for metastases amongst patients [observed OR (6.83) greater than expected OR (4.56)]. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, carriage of the UGT1A7*3 allele, as well as variant-211 UGT1A1 allele represents a risk factor for the development of, and a determinant for, metastases associated with CRC patients.  相似文献

Many studies have demonstrated the impact of UGT1A1 on toxicity of irinotecan. In particular, patients bear-ing UGT1A1*28 (TA 7/7) have a higher risk of severe neutropenia and diarrhea. Based on this, prescribers of irinotecan are advised that patients with UGT1A1*28 (TA 7/7) should start with a reduced dose of irinotecan, although a particular dose is not specified. Research in Asian countries has shown a lower incidence of UG-T1A1*28 (TA 7/7), while UGT1A1*6 (A/A) is more often found and is associated with severe irinotecan-related neutropenia. We report here a case of a metastatic colorectal cancer patient who is heterozygous for the UGT1A1*28 polymorphism (TA 6/7) as well as the UG-T1A1*6 polymorphism (G/A). The patient was treated with FOLFIRI for 9 cycles and underwent two irinote-can dose reductions according to pharmacokinetic data regarding exposure to the active metabolite, SN-38. Simultaneous heterozygous UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A1*6 polymorphisms may produce higher exposure to SN-38 and a higher risk of adverse effects related to irinote-can. Additional studies will be necessary to determine the optimal starting dose of irinotecan for patients with both UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A1*6 polymorphisms.  相似文献

Amodiaquine (AQ) is a 4‐aminoquinoline widely used in the treatment of malaria as part of the artemisinin combination therapy (ACT). AQ is metabolised towards its main metabolite desethylamodiaquine mainly by cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8). CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 play a minor role in the metabolism but they seem to be significantly involved in the formation of the short‐lived quinine‐imine. To complete the genetic variation picture of the main genes involved in AQ metabolism in the Zanzibar population, previously characterised for CYP2C8, we analysed in this study CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 main genetic polymorphisms. The results obtained show a low frequency of the CYP1A1*2B/C allele (2.4%) and a high frequency of CYP1B1*6 (approximately 42%) followed by CYP1B1*2 (approximately 27%) in Zanzibar islands. Genotype data for CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 show a low incidence of fast metabolisers, revealing a relatively safe genetic background in Zanzibar’s population regarding the appearance of adverse effects.  相似文献

BACKGROUND/AIMS: UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are important enzymes involved in glucuronidation of various exogenous and endogenous compounds. Studies were undertaken on the variability of three UGT enzyme activities in human livers. Enzyme activities were associated with genetic polymorphisms in UGT1A1 (UGT1A1*28) and UGT1A6 (UGT1A6*2). UGT1A1*28 is associated with Gilbert's syndrome, a deficiency in glucuronidation of bilirubin leading to mild hyperbilirubinemia, whereas UGT1A6*2 may result in low glucuronidation rates of several drugs. METHODS: Enzyme activities and genetic polymorphisms were assessed in 39 human liver samples, and polymorphisms were also assessed in blood of 253 healthy controls. RESULTS: Associations were found between UGT enzyme activities of bilirubin (B) and 4-nitrophenol (NP; r=0.47, P=0.0024), B and 4-methylumbelliferone (MUB; r=0.54, P=0.0003), and NP and MUB (r=0.89, P<0.0001). In addition to the association between B-UGT enzyme activity and UGT1A1*28 (r=0.45, P=0.0034) as reported earlier, an association between B-UGT and UGT1A6*2 (r=0.43, P=0.007) was found. In 253 Dutch Caucasian controls, co-occurrence of UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A6*2 was found (r=0.9, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Most patients with Gilbert's syndrome, in addition to their reduced B-UGT enzyme activity, may have abnormalities in the glucuronidation of aspirin or coumarin- and dopamine-derivatives, due to this combination of UGT1A1*28 and UGT1A6*2 genotypes.  相似文献

Objectives

HIV‐infected adults are considered to be at higher risk for influenza A H1N1 complications but data supporting this belief are lacking. We aimed to compare epidemiological data, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of influenza A H1N1 infection between HIV‐infected and ‐uninfected adults.

Methods

From 26 April to 6 December 2009, each adult presenting with acute respiratory illness at the emergency department of our institution was considered for an influenza A H1N1 diagnosis by specific multiplex real‐time polymerase chain reaction. For every HIV‐infected adult diagnosed, three consecutive adults not known to be HIV‐infected diagnosed in the same calendar week were randomly chosen as controls.

Results

Among 2106 adults tested, 623 (30%) had influenza A H1N1 infection confirmed. Fifty‐six (9%) were HIV‐positive and were compared with 168 HIV‐negative controls. Relative to HIV‐negative controls, HIV‐positive patients were older, more frequently male, and more frequently smokers (P≤0.02). In the HIV‐positive group, prior or current AIDS‐defining events were reported for 30% of patients, 9% and 30% had CD4 counts of <200 and 200–500 cells/μL, respectively, and 95% had HIV‐1 RNA <50 copies/mL. Pneumonia (9%vs. 25%, respectively, in the HIV‐positive and HIV‐negative groups; P=0.01) and respiratory failure (9%vs. 21%, respectively; P=0.04) were less common in the HIV‐positive group. Oseltamivir (95%vs. 71% in the HIV‐positive and HIV‐negative groups, respectively; P=0.003) was administered more often in HIV‐positive patients. Three patients (all HIV‐negative) died. In the HIV‐positive group, CD4 cell count and plasma HIV‐1 RNA did not differ before and 4–6 weeks after influenza A H1N1 diagnosis (P>0.05).

Conclusions

HIV infection did not increase the severity of influenza A H1N1 infection, and influenza A H1N1 infection did not have a major effect on HIV infection.  相似文献

UDP-glucuronosyltransferase1A1 (UGT1A1) catalyses glucuronidation of bilirubin (the final break down product of heme which is produced mainly in the spleen and liver) and is located on the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To identify partner UGTs that form hetero-oligomers with UGT1A1, or other proteins that bind directly to UGT1A1, yeast two-hybrid screening was performed using UGT1A1 as bait. From these studies, cDNA clones specific for human serum albumin (HSA) were unexpectedly isolated. The direct interaction between UGT1A1 and albumin was confirmed in vitro by a pull-down assay. FITC-albumin uptake into HepG2 and Huh7 cells was observed only when bilirubin are present in the culture medium. Furthermore, the endocytosis inhibitor phenylarsine oxide (PAO) prevented albumin uptake into the cells, suggesting that the albumin/bilirubin complex is internalized through receptor-mediated endocytosis. From these studies, it would appear that production of large amounts of toxic bilirubin might use different uptake pathways for entry into hepatocytes.  相似文献

A simple microchromatographic homemade column was devised for the measurement of glycosylated minor hemoglobin fractions. The mean and one standard deviation of hemoglobins A1a + b, A1c and A1a + b + c determined by the homemade column in 150 nondiabetic controls and 56 juvenile onset insulin-dependent diabetics were 2.6 +/- 0.5%, 6.0 +/- 1.0%, 8.6 +/- 1.1%, 3.3 +/- 0.9%, 13.7 +/- 2.2% and 16.9 +/- 2.8% respectively. A twofold increase in hemoglobins A1c and A1a + b + c levels was observed in the diabetics as compared to the non-diabetic controls suggesting that the homemade column is valid for the measurement of all three glycosylated hemoglobin fractions and assessment of blood glucose control in diabetic patients. The homemade column procedure yields accurate and reproducible results, is simple to perform, inexpensive, relatively rapid and may be used in the routine clinical laboratory. Hemoglobin A1a + b + c levels measured by a commercial column in 35 non-diabetic controls and in 56 diabetics showed good correlation (R = 0.91) with hemoglobin A1a + b + c levels determined by the homemade column. The commercial column is valid for the measurement of the combined glycosylated hemoglobin A1a + b + c fraction and may be used in the routine clinical laboratory to assess diabetic control.  相似文献
