Abstract:
Objective The study aims to investigate the associationbetweencholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) gene polymorphism and different clinical outcomes after Hepatitis B virus (HBV)infection in Fujian Han population and lay a foundation for understanding the mechanisms of genesis anddevelopment of HBV-related diseases.Methods Case-control study was conducted.586 patients of HBVpersistent infection without antiviral therapy and 225 HBV rehabilitation patients (35-55 years old) werecollected from May 2015 to June 2016 in the Liverish Center of First Clinical College of Fujian MedicalUniversity.The group of HBV persistent infection without antiviral therapy included 246 patients with chronichepatitis B, 177 patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis, and 163 patients with hepatitis B-related liver cancer.The rs3824260, rs4738687and rs8192871 loci of CYP7A1 gene were detected by improved multipleligase detection reaction (iMLDR).Logistic regression analysis and chi-square test were used to analyze thegenotyping results.Results Three SNPs ( single nucleotide polymorphisms ) of CYP7A1 gene wereselected and compared between HBV persistent infection group and HBV rehabilitation group and betweenchronic hepatitis B subgroup, liver cirrhosis subgroup and liver cancer subgroup.After adjustment for factorsincluding age andgender, there was no significant difference in the distribution of rs3824260 genotype amongthe groups(χ2 =1.565,P =0.459), however,the frequency of allele C in HBV rehabilitation group wassignificantly higher than in HBV persistent in fectiongroup for men (χ2 =4.365,P =0.037), whereas thefrequency of rs3824260 CC and CT was more likely to be observed in liver cancer group than in non -livercancer group (chronic hepatitis B subgroup and liver cirrhosis subgroup ) for women (χ2 =5.768,P =0.012;χ2 =10.130,P =0.001).The frequency of rs4738687 GG genotype was more likely to be observed innon-liver cancer group than in liver cancer group (χ2 =4.403,P =0.041;χ2 =6.940,P =0.009).Theresults of gender stratification showed that there were significant differences in the distribution of rs 4738687among the HBV persistent infection groups for men (χ2 =10.697,P =0.030), however, there was nosignificant difference in the distribution of rs4738687 among the HBV persistent infection groups for women(χ2 =4.627,P =0.329), and there was no significant difference in the distribution of genotype frequencyand allele frequency among all groups(χ2 =0.489,P =0.792).There was no significant difference after sexstratification either (χ2 =1.282, P =0.526;χ2 =1.565,P =0.465) .Conclusions These findingssuggested that CYP7A1 gene polymorphism was related todifferent clinical outcomes in Fujian Hanpopulation.The rs3824260 mutation had a certain gender preference and the mutation allele was detected ina higher proportion in male patients.Male HBV patients with rs3824260 C allele had more chance ofswitching to rehabilitation.The rs4738687 was likely to be related to the occurrence of liver cancer in FujianHan population, and GG genotype may delay the occurrence and development of liver cancer especially in themale group.The rs8192871 was not found to be related to the different clinical outcomes of HBV infection.
