ABSTRACT
@# Objective To investigate the relationship between interleukin 10 (IL-10) -592 (rs1800872) and -819 (rs1800871) promoter genetic polymorphisms and the susceptibility of antituberculosis drug-induced liver injury (ADLI). Methods A case-control study was conducted. Epidemiology survey data and peripheral blood samples were obtained from the patients. Two IL-10 gene polymorphisms (-592 A/C and 819 C/T) were genotyped with PCR-RFLP (polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism) in Chinese Han ADLI subjects (n=180) and sex matched by frequency matching in control subjects (n=180). Results No significant differences in genotypes of IL-10 -592 site and IL-10 -819 site between ADLI group and that of the control group were noticed (all P>0.05). The mutant alleles -592 C of IL-10 gene polymorphism was significantly higher in ADLI subjects compared to controls, and in dominant model, the frequency of CC+AC genotype was 1.62 higher among the cases than controls (all P<0.05). Significant difference in allele -819 C/T between the ADLI group and the control group were not found (P=0.190). The polymorphisms at -819 C/T and -592 A/C variants of IL-10 gene were found to be good linkage disequilibrium. The CC haplotype represent genetic risk factor (OR=1.37, 95% CI: 1.02-1.85) and CA haplotype represent genetic protect factor (OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.34-0.70) for ADLI in the subjects. Conclusions The polymorphisms in IL-10 gene -592 A/C and -819 C/T are associated with ADLI.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship between methylation of CpG island in glutathione S-transferase P1(GSTP1) promoter region and injury induced by isoniazid in HL-7702 cells.Methods HL-7702 cells were divided into the control group and three isoniazid groups(200,400,800 mg/L).Colorimetric method was used to detect the activity level of lactate dehydrogenase in the medium of HL-7702 cells;the mRNA expression of GSTP1,DNA methyltransferases 1(DNMT1),DNMT3a and DNMT3b were de?tected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR;the protein expression levels of DNMT1,DNMT3a and DNMT3b were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay;the methylation of the CpG island in the GSTP1 promoter region was determined by the bisulfite sequencing PCR.Results The activity level of lactate dehydrogenase in supernatants of the HL-7702 cells in isoniazid group(400, 800 mg/L)was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the mRNA expression of DNMT 1、3a、3b and GSTP1 were elevated in 400 and 800 mg/L isoniazid groups(P<0.05,P<0.01).The proteins expression of DNMT1 and 3a in the 400 and 800 mg/L isoniazid groups were higher than that in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the protein expression of DNMT 3b in the 800 mg/L isoniazid groups were higher than that in the control group(P<0.01).The methylation level of CpG is?land in GSTP1 promoter region of three isoniazid groups were decreased.Conclusion The CpG island in the promoter of GSTP1 has hypomethylation in hepatocyte cells damaged by isoniazid.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of automotive paint volatile on the learning and memory ability and its influence mechanism of the amino acid neurotransmitters in the brain tissue of mice. METHODS: Thirty specific pathogen free healthy male Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group,primer group and topcoat group,10 mice in each group. By static inhalation intoxication method,the primer group and topcoat group were exposed to corresponding paint volatile 600 and 580 mg / m3 respectively every day for 4 weeks,6 days per week,one time a day,2 hours each time.The mice of the control group were kept in the exposure cabinet without any paint volatile. After the exposure,the neuroethology examination was carried out by Morris water maze test. The amino acid levels of glutamic acid( GLU),aspartic acid( ASP),γ-aminobutyric acid( GABA) and glycine( GLY) in brain tissue of mice were detected by high performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS: Compared with the control group,the escape latency and the first crossing platform time were longer( P < 0. 05),target quadrant staying time and platform crossing times were decreased( P <0. 05),and the levels of GLU,ASP,GABA and GLY in brain tissues were decreased in the primer group and the topcoat group( P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference between the primer group and the topcoat group in the above indexes( P > 0. 05). CONCLUSION: Automotive paint volatiles exposure may lower the learning and memory abilities of mice,and could reduce the secretion of amino acid neurotransmitters in the brain tissue of mice.
