Association of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) polymorphism with antituberculosis drug induced hepatotoxicity among patients in Malaysia / Nur Farhana Mohamed Noor

Antituberculosis drug induced hepatotoxicity (ATDIH) is a serious adverse drug reaction. Factors that affect drug responses or increase the risks of adverse drug reactions include both endogenous and exogenous variables. Genetic variants of N acetyltransferase-2 (NAT2) have been associated with incr...

Then, a case-control study was conducted. Thirty-three (33) TB patients with ATDIH and 100 TB patients without ATDIH were recruited from tertiary hospitals in Klang Valley, Malaysia. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the NAT2 gene were determined through polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. The distribution of the genotypes and alleles frequencies between the two groups were compared and analysed using chi-square test. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI was used to evaluate the strength of the association between NAT2 gene polymorphism and ATDIH. Risk factors associated with ATDIH were analysed using multiple regression analysis. A total of 12 studies, involving 580 cases and 3129 controls, were included in the meta-analysis. NAT2 polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of ATDIH with an odd ratio (OR) of 2.76 (1.86 – 4.10, 95% CI).

As for our case control study, the T allele of NAT2*13A (rs1041983), A allele of NAT2*6B (rs1799930) and NAT2 slow acetylators (SA) were significantly associated with ATDIH with odd ratios (OR (95% CI) = 2.28 (1.25-4.16), 2.20 (1.25-3.86) and 3.39 (1.43-8.04), respectively.

In conclusion, the meta-analysis show that NAT2 polymorphism is associated with ATDIH. The significant role of NAT2 polymorphism is further confirmed by present case-control study.
