CYP1B1 (4326C > G), CYP2F1 (c.14_15insC), CYP2J2 (?76G > T), and CYP2S1 (13106C > T and 13255A > G) polymorphisms and genetic predisposition to chronic respiratory diseases induced by smoking and occupational factors

The contribution of the polymorphic markers of cytochrome P450 genes to respiratory diseases caused by smoking and occupational factors has been assessed. For this purpose, PCR-RFLP analysis of the CYP1B1 (rs1056836, 4326C > G), CYP2F1 (rs11399890, c.14_15insC), CYP2J2 (rs890293, -76G > T), and CYP2S1 (rs34971233, 13106C > T and rs338583, 13255A > G) gene polymorphisms has been performed. The analysis has shown that CYP1B1 (rs1056836, 4326C > G) and CYP2F1 (rs11399890, c.14_15insC) polymorphisms may contribute to the development of occupational chronic bronchitis. The proportion of CYP1B1*1*3 heterozygotes in the group of patients with occupational chronic bronchitis is considerably greater than in the group of healthy workers (69.16% versus 53.29%; χ² = 5.94, p = 0.02, p _cur = 0.04, OR = 1.97, the 95% CI is 1.13–3.42). Patients with occupational chronic bronchitis and healthy workers significantly differed from each other in the CYP2F1 genotypes frequency distribution (rs11399890, c.14_15insC) (χ² = 6.18, d.f. = 2, p = 0.05). CYP2F1 wild type/ins heterozygous genotype frequency is higher in healthy workers (36.08%) than in patients (22.22%) (χ² = 5.48, p = 0.02, p _cur = 0.04, OR = 0.51, the 95% CI is 0.28–0.90). No association has been found between the CYP2J2 (rs890293, −76G > T) or CYP2S1 (rs34971233, 13106C > T, and rs338583, 13255A > G) gene polymorphisms and respiratory diseases.
