RESUMEN
Antecedentes. La Tiopurina S-Metiltransferasa (
TPMT)
cataliza la S-metilación de tiopurinas como la 6-mercaptopurina,
6-tioguanina y azatioprina, llevando a su inactivación.
Los individuos que heredan alelos variantes del gen
TPMT tienen
mayor probabilidad de presentar toxicidad grave que puede
poner en riesgo la vida cuando estos fármacos se
administran a dosis estándar. El fenotipo silvestre
TPMT*1
tiene alta actividad catalítica, mientras que todas las variantes
muestran disminución de la actividad enzimática. Se han encontrado
diferencias en la distribución de las variantes alélicas
del gen
TPMT relacionadas con el origen étnico. En México la
información es limitada y hasta ahora se han publicado sólo
dos estudios que muestran claras diferencias entre sí.
Material
y métodos. Se determinaron las variantes alélicas y genotipos
del gen
TPMT en 240 niños mexicanos con leucemias
y tumores sólidos empleando ADN extraído de sangre periférica.
Los polimorfismos G460A y A719G se identificaron por
PCR-RFLP y el G238C por PCR alelo específica. Las variantes
de la enzima fueron identificadas por discriminación alélica.
Resultados. El genotipo homocigoto silvestre
TPMT*1/
TPMT*1 se encontró en 173 pacientes (72.1%); 67 casos
(27.9%) fueron heterocigotos: 18 con genotipo
TPMT*1/
TPMT*3B (7.5%), 17
TPMT*1/TPMT*3C (7.1%), 16
TPMT*1/TMPT*2 (6.7%), 14
TPMT*1/
TPMT*3A (5.8%) y
dos (0.8%) eran homocigotos para dos variantes:
TPMT*2/
TPMT*3B ambos. Las frecuencias por alelo fueron
TPMT*1
en 411 (85.62%), TPMT*3B en 20 (4.1%), TPMT*2 en 18
(3.75%), TPMT*3C en 17 (3.55%) y TPMT*3A en 14 (2.9%).
Conclusiones. En esta serie se encontró alta frecuencia y diversidad
de genotipos variantes de
TPMT, con predominio del
alelo
TPMT*3B.
