Resum

Analysis of the genotype that predicts the phenotypic characteristics of a cohort of glaucoma and ocular hypertension patients, and the correlation with their personal pharmacological response to beta-blockers (BB) and prostaglandin analogues (PGA). Prospective study that included 139 eyes from 72 patients under BB and/or PGA treatment, and in some cases other types of ocular hypotensive treatments. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped by real-time PCR assays: prostaglandin-F2a. receptor (rs3766355, rs3753380); cytochrome-P450 2D6 (rs16947, rs769258); and beta-2-adrenergic receptor (rs1042714). Other studied variables were mean deviation (MD) of visual field, previous ocular interventions, medical treatment, baseline (bIOP), and treated intraocular pressure (tIOP). From a total of 139 eyes, 71 (51.1%) were left eyes. The main diagnosis was primary open angle glaucoma (66.2%). A total of 57 (41%) eyes were under three or more medications (PGA + BB + other) and, additionally, 57 eyes (41%) had had some kind of glaucoma surgery. The mean bIOP and tIOP were 26.55 +/- 8.19 and 21.01 +/- 5.54 mmHg, respectively. Significant differences in tIOP were found between heterozygous (HT) (21.07 +/- 0.607 mmHg) and homozygous (HM) (20.98 +/- 0.639 mmHg) rs3766355 with respect to wildtype individuals (16 +/- 1.08 mmHg) (p = 0.031). The MD values presented significant differences between wildtype rs3766355 (-2 +/- 2.2 dB), HT (-3.87 +/- 4 dB), and HM carriers (-9.37 +/- 9.51 dB) (p = 0.009). Significant differences were also observed between the MD in wildtype rs3753380 (-6.1 +/- 8.67 dB), HT (-9.02 +/- 8.63 dB), and HM carriers (-9.51 +/- 7.44 dB) (p = 0.017). Patients carrying the variant rs3766355 in HM or HT presented clinically-significantly higher tIOP than wildtype patients. Additionally, some differences in MD were found in rs3766355 and rs3753380 carriers, and the more alleles that were affected, the worse the MD value, meaning greater severity of the glaucoma. Poor response to treatment and more visual field damage may be associated with being a carrier of these mutated alleles.
