This study performed genetic analysis on patients taking therapeutic doses of acetaminophen and found that variants in the SULT1E1 gene were associated with the maximum increase in ALT activity. This association was not driven by a single variant, but rather by the combined effects of multiple variants within the gene. No other genes were found to be associated with maximum ALT increase in this cohort.
Background Several studies have suggested genetic variants associated with acetaminophen induced liver injury (DILI) following overdose. Genetic variation associated with acetaminophen-induced alanine aminotransferase elevation during therapeutic dosing has not been examined. Methods We performed genetic analyses on patients that ingested therapeutic doses of 4 grams of acetaminophen for up to 16 days. We examined 20 genes previously implicated in the metabolism of acetaminophen or the development of immune-mediated DILI using the Illumina Multi-Ethnic Global Array 2. Autosomes were aligned and imputed using TOPMed. A candidate gene region analysis was performed by testing each gene individually using linkage disequilibrium (LD) pruned variants with the adaptive sum of powered scores (aSPU) test from the aSPU R package. The highest measured ALT during therapy, the maximum ALT, was used as the outcome. Results 192 subjects taking therapeutic APAP were included in the genetic analysis. 136 (70.8%) were female, 133 (69.2%) were Caucasian race, and the median age was 34 years (IQR: 26, 46). Age > 50 years was the only clinical factor associated with maximum ALT increase. Variants in SULT1E1, the gene responsible for Sulfotransferase Family 1E Member 1 enzyme production, were associated with maximum ALT. No single variant drove this association, but rather the association was due to the additive effects of numerous variants within the gene. No other genes were associated with maximum ALT increase in this cohort. Conclusion Acetaminophen induced ALT elevation at therapeutic doses was not associated with variation in most genes associated with acetaminophen metabolism or immune-induced DILI in this cohort. The role of SULT1E1 polymorphism in acetaminophen-induced elevated ALT needs further examination.
