Length Polymorphisms in Heme Oxygenase-1 and AKI after Cardiac Surgery
Open accessAbstract
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) catalyzes the degradation of heme, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of AKI. Length polymorphisms in the number of GT dinucleotide repeats in the HO-1 gene ( HMOX1 ) promoter inversely associate with HMOX1 mRNA expression. We analyzed the association between allelic frequencies of GT repeats in the HMOX1 gene promoter and postoperative AKI in 2377 white patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. We categorized patients as having the short allele (S; <27 GT repeats) or long allele (L; ≥27 GT repeats), and defined AKI as an increase in serum creatinine ≥0.3 mg/dl within 48 hours or ≥50% within 5 days, or the need for RRT. Compared with patients with the SS genotype, patients with the LL genotype had 1.58-fold (95% confidence interval, 1.06 to 2.34; P =0.02) higher odds of AKI. After adjusting for baseline and operative characteristics, the odds ratio for AKI per L allele was 1.26 (95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 1.50; P =0.01). In conclusion, longer GT repeats in the HMOX1 gene promoter associate with increased risk of AKI after cardiac surgery, consistent with heme toxicity as a pathogenic feature of cardiac surgery-associated AKI, and with HO-1 as a potential therapeutic target.

Shorter HO-1 (GT)n alleles improve acute kidney injury and outcome after kidney transplantation in mouse models, at least partly due to increased HO-1 promoter activity.
“Shorter HO-1 (GT)n alleles have been found to improve acute kidney injury and outcome after kidney transplantation in mouse models (Leaf et al. 2016), at least partly due to the increase in HO-1 promoter activity (Gill et al. 2018).”

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.
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.
