Prediction of the CYP2D6 enzymatic activity based on investigating of the CYP2D6 genotypes around the vivax malaria patients in Yunnan Province, China

Abstract Background In recent years, the incidence rate of vivax malaria recurrence still had 3.1% in Yunnan Province population after eradication therapy using primaquine (PQ). In order to understand the specific failure reasons for preventing vivax malaria relapses, a preliminary exploration on th...

Description
Summary:Abstract Background In recent years, the incidence rate of vivax malaria recurrence still had 3.1% in Yunnan Province population after eradication therapy using primaquine (PQ). In order to understand the specific failure reasons for preventing vivax malaria relapses, a preliminary exploration on the CYP2D6 enzyme activity was carried out in the vivax malaria patients in Yunnan Province population by analysing mutational polymorphism in the coding region of CYP2D6 gene. Methods Blood samples were collected from vivax malaria patients with suspected relapse (SR) and non-relapsed (NR) malaria in Yunnan Province. The DNA fragments containing 9 exons regions of human CYP2D6 gene were amplified by performing PCR and sequenced. The sequencing results were aligned by using DNAStar 11.0 to obtain the coding DNA sequence (CDS) of CYP2D6 gene. DnaSP 6.11.01 software was used to identify mutant polymorphisms and haplotypes of the CDS chain. The waterfall function of GenVisR package in R was utilized to visualize the mutational landscape. The alleles of CYP2D6 gene were identified according to the criteria prescribed by Human Cytochrome P450 (CYP) Allele Nomenclature Committee Database and the CYP2D6 enzyme activity was predicted based on diploid genotype. Results A total of 320 maternal CDS chains, including 63 from SR group and 257 from NR group, were obtained. Twelve mutant loci, including c.31 (rs769259), c.100 (rs1065852), c.271 (rs28371703), c.281 (rs28371704), c.294 (rs28371705), c.297 (rs200269944), c.336 (rs1081003), c.408 (rs1058164), c.505 (rs5030865), c.801 (rs28371718), c.886 (rs16947), and c.1,457 (rs1135840) were observed on the 640 CDS chains (including 320 maternal and 320 paternal chains). The high-frequency mutation at rs1135840 (0.703) and low-frequency mutation, such as rs28371703, were detected only in the SR group. The frequency of mutant rs1058164 and rs1135840 were significantly increased in the SR group ( $${x}^{2}$$ x 2 = 4.468, 5.889, P < 0.05), as opposed to the NR group. Of the 23 haplotypes ...
