SNPs in NRXN1 and CHRNA5 are Associated to Smoking and Regulation of Gabaergic and Glutamatergic Pathways

Abstract: In a Mexican Mestizo population, greater consumption of cigarettes was influenced by polymorphisms in the NRXN1 and CHRNA5 genes. We proposed new hypotheses regarding the putative roles of miRNAs that influence the GABAergic and glutamatergic pathways in smoking addiction.

“…Smokers recruited from the Smoking Cessation Support Clinic of the Department of Investigation in Tobacco Consumption and COPD at the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias Ismael Cosío Villegas (INER) in Mexico City, with the following criteria: individuals who started smoking in adolescence (<18 years) were defined as early smokers (ES) or those who started smoking in adulthood (≥18 years) defined as late smokers (LS); these subjects have been recruited previously in our research group [2] , [3] .…”

“…Smokers recruited from the Smoking Cessation Support Clinic of the Department of Investigation in Tobacco Consumption and COPD at the Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Respiratorias Ismael Cosío Villegas (INER) in Mexico City, with the following criteria: had 10≥years smoking were classified according their smoking pattern in cigarette smoking per day (cpd) into light smokers (LS≤10 cpd) and heavy smokers (HS≥20 cpd), these subjects has been recruited previously in our research group [2] , [3] . A reference group of never-smokers healthy volunteers was selected with the same demographic characteristics.…”

“…Subsequently, rs1882296 in NRXN1 was associated with smoking risk in a Mexican population when comparing smokers to non-smokers. Using an in silico analysis, the presence of the risk allele (C) was observed to generate a miRNA capable of silencing genes that encode different receptors of the GA-BAergic and glutamatergic pathways compared to the presence of the common allele (T) 29 .…”

“…In a Russian population that included patients with COPD and clinically healthy individuals (26% non-smokers), it was found that the haplotype formed by alleles AAG in CHRNA3/A5 (rs16969968-rs1051730-r6495309) was present at a higher frequency in patients with COPD than in the control group 182 . In Mestizo Mexican populations, we have identified, using multi-stage association studies, polymorphisms in CHRNA5 (rs16969968 and rs17408276) that are associated with cigarette smoking 29 . A later analysis, including smokers with and without COPD, showed that patients with COPD and of Caucasian descent had a haplotype formed by 12 SNPs in CHRNA5/A3 (AGGAAGAGGGCA) that includes rs16969968 and rs17408276.…”
