RESUMO
The study of genetic and environmental factors on the risk of acute alcoholic-alimentary pancreatitis (AÐAÐ ) is especially relevant to interpret individual links of pathogenesis, to reduce the incidence by eliminating the impact of harmful factors and improve the quality of life of the population through the introduction of optimal nutrition, and a healthy lifestyle, which is especially important for carriers of risk genotypes. The aim of the research was to study the influence of environmental factors and polymorphic loci rs6580502 of the SPINK1 gene, rs10273639 of the PRSS1 gene, rs213950 of the CFTR gene on the risk of ÐAÐ . Material and methods. Blood DNA samples obtained from 547 patients with AÐAÐ and 573 healthy individuals were used as the material for the study. The groups were comparable by sex and age. All participants were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively for risk factors, smoking and alcohol consumption, the frequency, quantity and regularity of intake of various types of foods, as well as the size and number of portions eaten. Genomic DNA was isolated by the standard phenol-chloroform extraction method, multiplex genotyping of SNPs was performed on a MALDI-TOF MassARRAY-4 genetic analyzer. Results. It was found that the T/T genotype (p=0.0012) of the rs6580502 SPINK1 was associated with an increased risk of AAAP, and the T allele (p=0.0001) and C/T and T/T genotypes (p=0.0001) of the rs10273639 PRSS1, A allele (p=0.01) and A/G and A/A genotypes (p=0.0006) of the rs213950 CFTR were associated with an decreased risk of the disease. The revealed effects of polymorphic loci of candidate genes were enhanced by the effect of alcohol consumption. The risk of AAAP was reduced by fat intake of less than 89 g per day in carriers of the A/G-A/A CFTR genotypes (rs213950), consumption of fresh vegetables and fruits of more than 27 g per day in carriers of the T/C-T/T PRSS1 genotypes (rs10273639), protein intake of more 84 g per day in carriers of T/C-T/T PRSS1 rs10273639 and A/G-A/A CFTR rs213950. The most significant models of gene-environment interactions included risk factors: deficiency in the diet of protein, fresh vegetables and fruits, smoking, and polymorphic variants of the PRSS1 (rs10273639) and SPINK (rs6580502) genes. Conclusion. In order to prevent the development of AAAP, carriers of risk genotypes of candidate genes need not only to exclude or significantly reduce alcohol consumption (in terms of volume, frequency and duration); but also carriers of the A/G-A/A CFTR genotypes (rs213950) need to balance the diet by reducing fat intake to less than 89 g per day and increasing protein intake to more than 84 g per day; carriers of the T/C-T/T PRSS1 (rs10273639) genotypes should increase their intake of fresh vegetables and fruits over 27 g/day and protein over 84 g/day.
