A missense variant of the ABCC11 gene is associated with Axillary Osmidrosis susceptibility and clinical phenotypes in the Chinese Han Population

Abstract: Axillary osmidrosis (AO) is a common condition characterized by an offensive odor arising from apocrine gland secretions in the axillae that socially and psychologically impairs affected individuals. The exact aetiology of AO is still not fully understood, but genetic factors have been suggested to play an important role. Recently, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs17822931 in the ABCC11 gene located on human chromosome 16q12.1 has been shown to be associated with AO. In this study, we genotyped rs17822… Show more

“…The production of malodor on the underarm skin is primarily attributed to the action of the resident microbiota on odorless natural secretions from the apocrine gland ( 24 ). Corynebacterium is one of the dominant bacterial groups in the armpit microbiota, which has an important role in malodor generation ( 25 ).…”

“…ABCC11 encodes ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 11, which is a member of the multi-drug resistance protein (MRP) sub-family of the ATP-binding cassette gene family. The missense SNP has previously been associated with dry versus wet earwax types 118 and axillary ozmidrosis (body odor) 119 121 . The current study is the first report that shows that this SNP is also associated with hyperhidrosis.…”

“…categorized by ClinVar as benign or likely benign (Figure 2C, Supplemental Table 1A). These candidates include a substitution in ATP-binding cassette transporter sub-family C member 11 (G180R, rs17822931) that has high allele frequencies within East Asian populations (75%) and is significantly correlated with Axillary Osmidrosis in Chinese Han populations (30) as well as increased risk for breast cancer in Japanese women (31). Further analyses of these 23 putatively deleterious pAIMs revealed they exhibit higher allele frequencies in East Asian versus European and African populations (Figure 2D).…”
