Resumen : Background: Host genetic factors may be associated with COVID-19 unfavourable outcomes. The first genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted in individuals with respiratory failure due to COVID-19 revealed susceptibility loci close to six genes (SLC6A20, LZTFL1, CCR9, FYCO1, CXCR6 and XCR1) and the ABO blood-group gene. We aimed to investigate how polymorphisms in those genes could relate to lung function and severe asthma in a Brazilian population. Methods: DNA samples of 784 individuals following the ProAR (Programa para Controle da Asma e Rinite Al´ergica da Bahia) were genotyped by the Multi-Ethnic Global Array panel with ~2 million polymorphisms (Illumina). Polymorphisms in SLC6A20, LZTFL1, CCR9, FYCO1, CXCR6, XCR1 and the ABO blood-group gene were evaluated. Logistic regression for severe asthma, airway obstruction and lack of FEV1 reversibility was performed using PLINK software 1.9, in the additive model and was adjusted for sex, age and PCA-1. Pairwise Linkage disequilibrium analyses were performed using Haploview 4.2. The haplotypes and gene score analyses were performed in the SNPstat tool. In silico functions of polymorphisms were analysed using rSNPbase and RegulomeDB plataforms. Results: We identified the rs8176733 (G allele) and rs8176725 (A allele) in the ABO blood-group gene as risk factors for severe asthma, lower pulmonary obstruction and lack of FEV1 reversibility. Polymorphisms in CCR9 are risk factors for both severe asthma (A allele of rs34338823) and airway obstruction (A allele of rs6806802). The markers rs13079478 (A allele) and rs75817942 (A allele) in FYCO1 are related to more severe asthma and a lack of FEV1 reversibility, respectively. We identified the A allele of both rs35731912 and rs34338823 in LZTFL1 as risk factors for severe asthma. The marker rs6806802 (C allele) was associated with airway obstruction and rs7614952 (A allele), rs7625839 (G allele) and rs112509260 (A allele) are related to a lack of FEV1 reversibility. The A allele of rs2531747 in the SLC6A20 gene is also associated with severe asthma. Conversely, polymorphisms in XCR1 play a protective role in relation to severe asthma (A allele of rs2036295) and airway obstruction (A allele of rs2036295). Additionally, we found that individuals with a higher number of risk alleles have a greater risk of severe asthma, airway obstruction and FEV1 reversibility. Conclusion: Our study suggests that polymorphisms in genes associated with respiratory failure in SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals are associated with greater susceptibility to severe asthma and reduced lung function in subjects with asthma.
