A functional XPNPEP2 promoter haplotype leads to reduced plasma aminopeptidase P and increased risk of ACE inhibitor‐induced angioedema

Open access

Abstract

In a case control study of subjects with a history of ACEi-angioedema, haplotype ATG was significantly associated with ACEi-angioedema (OR 4.87 [1.78–13.35] p = 0.002). The ATG haplotype is functional and contributes to ACEi-angioedema through a reduction in APP.

Claims the paper makes

7 of 24 cited sources checked · 3 supported · 1 flagged · accuracy not yet measured

  • It may state two separate claims as one. 28
  • Probably not a substantial claim. 14
  • The quote only partly states this claim. 1
37 of 37
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The HepG2 cell line is a valid model for XPNPEP2 transcriptional regulation in the tissues relevant to ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema.

    “Constructs were transiently transfected into HepG2 cells using FuGENE6 (Roche).”
    “In trans-activation experiments, HepG2 cells were cotransfected with 0.4 μg reporter construct and 0.1 μg hepatic nuclear factor-4 (HNF4) expression vector”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The Angioedema Study cases and controls are representative of the broader population at risk for ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema.

    “The Angioedema Study: consisted of 34 participants from Canada, Belgium, and the United States who had a history of ACEiangioedema or ACEi-induced anaphylactoid reactions and 127 control samples, matched for gender and country of origin.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The Leeds Family Study sample is representative of healthy individuals for estimating the genetic contribution to plasma APP activity.

    “The Leeds Family Study: consisted of 537 subjects from 89 pedigrees (average of six subjects per family) from 133 households.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Reporter gene activity in HepG2 cells reflects XPNPEP2 promoter activity in vivo.

    “suggesting these regions may be important for transcriptional regulation of XNPEP2 expression in vivo.”
    “demonstrating for the first time that c.-2399C>A and c.-1612G>T are functional polymorphisms.”

Self-check

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • The minimal promoter has two reported boundaries

    Minor

    The results identify the minimal promoter as extending from −338 to −147 bp, but the discussion places its upstream boundary at −388 bp. Those boundaries differ by 50 bp.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
