Aims: To determine genetic susceptibility markers for carbamazepine (CBZ) and allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) in Vietnamese. Methods: A case control study was performed involving 122 patients with CBZ or allopurinol induced SCARs and 120 drug tolerant controls. Results: HLA-B*58:01 was strongly associated with allopurinol-induced SCARs and strongly correlated with SNP rs9263726. HLA-B*15:02 was associated with CBZ-induced Stevens–Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis but not with drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. No association was found between HLA-A*31:01 and CBZ-induced SCARs. HLA-B*58:01 and rs3909184 allele A with renal insufficiency were shown to increase the risk of allopurinol-induced SCARs. Conclusion: HLA-B*58:01 and HLA-B*15:02 confer susceptibility to allopurinol-induced SCARs and CBZ-induced SJS/TEN in Vietnamese. Single nucleotide polymorphism rs9263726 can be used as a surrogate marker in identifying HLA-B*58:01.

Although the incidence of severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) to medications is very low, SCARs can result in disability or even death if they are not diagnosed and treated properly. As the rapid recognition of SCARs is essential, it is necessary to develop diagnostic markers for them that can also be used to assess severity and predict outcomes in the early phase. In addition, it is important to identify novel therapeutic targets for SCARs. Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that control the migratory patterns and locations of immune cells and usually exhibit markedly specific associations with certain human diseases. In Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), the Th1-associated chemokines chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 9 (CXCL9) and CXCL10 predominate, while in drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS)/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), the levels of the Th2-associated chemokines chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 17 (CCL17) and CCL22 are markedly elevated. We suggest that the distinct chemokine profiles of SJS/TEN and DIHS/DRESS can be used to aid their differential diagnosis. CXCL10 has also been reported to be associated with the development of long-term sequelae in DIHS/DRESS. This review focuses on the chemokines involved in the pathogenesis and adjuvant diagnosis of SCARs, particularly SJS/TEN and DIHS/DRESS, but also provides a brief overview of SCARs and the chemokine superfamily. As it is being increasingly recognized that an association exists between human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and DIHS/DRESS, the possible roles of the chemokine/chemokine receptor homologs encoded by HHV-6 in the pathogenesis of DIHS/DRESS are also discussed.
