Abstract
PURPOSE:Early onset preeclampsia (PPE) contributes to life-threatening maternal complications and fetal demise. Pharmacogenomics is a precision medicine, and metabolizing enzymes responsive to antihypertensive remains understudied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the associations of polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with PPE and the relationship among CYP2D6, CYP2C9 polymorphisms and response to labetalol therapy. METHODS:Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with PPE (case) and 103 healthy gravidas (control) were recruited between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures (BP) with PPE. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose and effectively controlled the BP, it would be considered to be valid (n = 75). Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686, and rs3892097) were analyzed by TaqMan PCR. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between case-control groups, and the responsive and nonresponsive to labetalol in PPE. RESULTS: Out of six variants, only CC and CT genotypes of the CYP2D6 variants (rs28371725) in PPE were significantly higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103); 56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2 = 6.707]. However, there were no differences in maternal age, diastolic pressure, BMI, BW, serum triglyceride, and creatinine were observed among women with CC, CT, or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group (all P > 0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5 ± 2.1) vs (29.5 ± 1.8) and (29.8 ± 2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2 ± 9.3) vs (20.3 ± 10.4) and (22.5 ± 7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 h urine protein (LSD test, all P < 0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 nonresponsive to labetalol group was higher than that in responsive labetalol group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2 = 8.351, P = 0.004]. CONCLUSIONS: The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with PPE, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of PPE.
