No Association of AS3MT Gene Polymorphisms with Susceptibility to Hepatotoxicity and in APL Patients Treated with AS2O3: A Single Center Study
Background: Arsenic three oxide (As2O3) is the treatment choice for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Little is known about possible risk factors with predictive value for toxicity caused by As2O3. Biomethylation is considered to be a major pathway of detoxification for inorganic arsenics (iAs). Arsenic Methyltransferase (AS3MT) is one of the key enzymes involved in the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to trivalent arsenical and plays a critical role in arsenic detoxification. Polymorphisms in hAS3MT lead to a change in the catalytic activity of the enzyme and may increase the risk of arsenic-related toxicity. In this study, we investigated the association of the AS3MT polymorphisms (rs11191439, rs3740390, and rs3740393) genes with hepatotoxicity in APL patients treated with As2O3.
Materials and Methods: Genotyping was performed in 140 adult patients with APL treated with As2O3 using PCR-RFLP for rs11191439 and tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for rs3740390 and rs3740393. The results of PCR-RFLP and ARMS-PCR were confirmed by direct sequencing of 10 % of DNA samples. The results were analyzed using SNPStats, SPSS, and FinchTV. Hepatotoxicity was graded according to the National Cancer Institute's Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC).

The association between the three polymorphisms and hepatotoxicity was evaluated using five genetic models and none of the three studied polymorphisms were significantly associated with hepatotoxicity.
Discussion: The results of our study showed that AS3MT rs11191439, rs3740390, and rs3740393 polymorphisms are not associated with hepatotoxicity in APL patients. Genetic polymorphisms in enzymes which are involved in arsenic metabolism have been shown to have ethnicity and race-related differences.
