Effect of ORM1 genetic polymorphism on time-course of muscle relaxation induced by rocuronium / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of ORM1 genetic polymorphism on the time-course of muscle relaxation induced by rocuronium.Methods Seventy American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status [or Ⅱ patients,aged 25-55 yr,scheduled for elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery,with body mass index of 20-25 kg/m2,were enrolled in this study.Anesthesia was induced with iv midazolam and fentanyl and target-controlled infusion of propofol.After the patients lost consciousness,neuromuscular block was assessed with TOF Watch-SX using single stimulation of the ulnar nerve.When the maximal twitch depression was achieved,tracheal intubation was facilitated with rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg.The patients were mechanically ventilated.End-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure was maintained at 35-45 mmHg.The onset time,nonresponse time,clinical duration,75％ recovery time and recovery index of rocuronium were recorded.Peripheral venous blood samples were collected before surgery for determination of concentrations of plasma alpha1 acid glycoprotein,C-reactive protein (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay)and albumin (by biochemical method).ORM1 genotypes were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the ORM1 genotypeswild homozygote (ORM1*F1/*F1) group (AA group),mutation heterozygote (ORM1'F1/*S)group (AG group) and mutation homozygote (ORM1*S/*S) group (GG group).Results There were 40 cases in group AA,25 cases in group AG,and 5 cases in group GG.There were no significant differences in plasma alphal acid glycoprotein,albumin and C-reactive protein concentrations between the three groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group AA,the clinical duration,75％ recovery time and recovery index of rocuronium were significantly prolonged (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the onset time and nonresponse time in AG and GG groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion ORM1 genetic polymorphism is one of the genetic factors which affect the time-course of muscle relaxation induced by rocuronium.
