    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Anti-tuberculosis (anti-TB) drug-induced liver injury (ADLI) is one of the most common adverse effects associated with TB treatment. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1 and glutathione S-transferase (GST) P1 are important phase I/II metabolizing enzymes involved in drug metabolism and detoxification. Genetic polymorphism and CpG island methylation have been reported as factors influencing the expression of CYP1A1 and GSTP1. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the potential relationships of CYP1A1 and GSTP1 polymorphisms and CpG island methylation with ADLI risk. DESIGN: This was a population-based one-to-one matched case-control study. SETTING: The subjects were patients with TB receiving treatment in China from December 2010 to June 2013. PATIENTS: In total, 127 patients with TB and ADLI (case group) and 127 patients with TB but without liver injury (control group) were included in this study. Subjects were matched in terms of sex, age, and therapeutic regimen. METHODS: The general condition of each patient was assessed using questionnaires. The CYP1A1 MspI and GSTP1 Ile105Val polymorphisms as well as methylation status were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and the methylation-specific PCR method. RESULTS: We found no significant difference in GSTP1 and CYP1A1 genotypes between the two groups, probably because the sample size was not large enough; however, patients with ADLI had significantly higher GSTP1 and CYP1A1 promoter methylation rates than control subjects [odds ratio (OR) = 2.467 and 2.000, respectively]. After adjusting for drinking, which significantly differed between the groups as per univariate analysis, we found that hypermethylation of GSTP1 and CYP1A1 promoters was associated with ADLI (OR = 2.645 and 2.090, respectively). CONCLUSION: Hypermethylation of CpG islands of GSTP1 and CYP1A1 promoters may thus play important roles in the development of ADLI and provide evidence of being used as novel markers for ADLI risk prediction.
