Abstract

Previous studies suggested that genetic factors exerted huge influence in susceptibility to Tuberculosis. Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-a), which is encoded by the TNF gene, play a role on pulmonary macrophage function in isolating and controlling Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Polymorphisms on the promoter region of the TNF gene have been predicted to affect its transcriptional activity. Therefore, these polymorphisms are an excellent candidate to further study the role of TNF-a in susceptibility to Tuberculosis. 100 pulmonary tuberculosis patients (case) and 100 healthy individuals (controls) were recruited for this pilot study. DNA samples from cases and controls were genotyped for the TNF -238G A SNP (rs361525) using LightSNip genotyping assay. Our results showed no significant difference in the distribution of TNF -238 genotypes in case and control subjects (P = 0.4335). Further investigation on TNF -238 allele frequencies between case and control studies also yields no significant difference (P=1.000; OR=1.000; %95CI [0.246597 ? 4.055200]) which may suggest that there are no association with predisposition to Tuberculosis infection. In conclusion, this pilot study showed that the TNF -238G A SNP is not associated with susceptibility to Tuberculosis.

Abstract

Background: Asthma is a multifactorial disease that encompasses a multitude of genetic and environmental factors. One such factor is the disintegrin and metalloprotein-33 (ADAM33) gene, which is correlated with asthma and bronchial hyperresponsiveness. Previous studies conducted on Asian populations have reported a significant association between rs2787094 polymorphism in the ADAM33 gene and asthma. Methods: Our study involved 153 Indonesian participants. TaqMan genotyping assay was used to analyze rs2787094 polymorphism in the ADAM33 gene. Results: No significant association was detected between the allele and genotype frequencies of rs2787094 and asthma in the case and control subjects (p = 1.00). The distribution of rs2787094 genotypes in healthy controls was CC (12.1%), CG (42.1%), and GG (45.8%). The genotype distribution in Indonesians was similar to East Asians in 1,000 genomes dataset. Conclusions: This is the first study to investigate the association between rs2787094 polymorphism in the ADAM33 gene and asthma in the Indonesian population and concluded that it is not associated. Future studies with larger sample sizes and more single nucleotide polymorphisms in the ADAM33 gene are needed to validate these results.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains Indonesia's leading infectious disease. Hepatotoxicity is the most common side effect of TB first-line medication therapy in TB patients. GSTM1 and GSTT1 are glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes involved in the detoxification of various toxic compounds such as drugs. The development of fast and simple methods for null genotyping of GSTM1/GSTT1 could facilitate large pharmacogenetic studies and the clinical application of personalized drug dose adjustment according to the patient's genetic profile. The aim of this research was to develop a multiple PCR method for simultaneous amplification of GSTM1/GSTT1 genes for molecular analysis. A total of 25 samples of TB patients were used to validate the method consisting of TB patients with hepatotoxicity and without hepatotoxicity. Our result showed the genotype frequency of the GSTM1 null genotype was 90% in TB patients with hepatotoxicity and 100% in TB patients without hepatotoxicity. The frequency of the GSTT1 null genotype in TB patients with hepatotoxicity was 90%, whereas in TB patients without hepatotoxicity was 80%. The sequencing results on the positive samples showed a similarity of 99% to the GenBank NCBI. Our study was successful in detecting GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes using the multiplex PCR method in TB patients. Further study needs to be done with larger sample of TB patients.
