TPMT*2 was detected using an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. TPMT*3C and NAT2 variants (*5,*6 and *7) were detected using an allele-specific real-time PCR assay. Detection of GSTM1 and GSTT1 null alleles was performed simultaneously using a multiplex PCR assay. Finally, a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay was applied for the determination of TPMT*3A (*3B), SULT1A1*2 and MDR-1 (3435T) variants.ResultsGenotyping of TPMT revealed frequencies of 0.003 and 0.013 for TPMT*3A and TPMT*3C, respectively. No TPMT*2 or *3B was detected in the analysed samples. The frequencies of specific NAT2 alleles were 0.215, 0.497, 0.260 and 0.028 for *4 (wild-type), *5 (341C), *6 (590A) and *7 (857A), respectively. GSTM1 and GSTT1 null alleles were detected in 55.5% and 29.5% of the subjects, respectively. SULT1A1*2 was detected at a frequency of 0.135. Finally, the frequencies of the wild-type allele (3435C) and the 3435T variant in the MDR-1 gene were found to be 0.6 and 0.4, respectively.ConclusionsWe found that Egyptians resemble other Caucasians with regard to allelic frequencies of the tested variants of NAT2, GST and MDR-1. By contrast, this Egyptian population more closely resemble Africans with respect to the TPMT*3C allele, and shows a distinctly different frequency with regard to the SULT1A1*2 variant. The predominance of the slow acetylator genotype in the present study (60.50%) could not confirm a previously reported higher frequency of the slow acetylator phenotype in Egyptians (92.00%), indicating the possibility of the presence of other mutations not detectable as T341C, G590A and G857A. The purpose of our future studies is to investigate for new polymorphisms, which could be relatively unique to the Egyptian population."xsd:string |
