Project description:BackgroundIt is well known that axonal degeneration plays a role in disability in patients with multiple sclerosis, and synaptopathy has recently become an important issue.AimsTo investigate the possible roles of selected synaptic and presynaptic membrane protein genetic polymorphisms (VAMP2, SNAP-25, synaptotagmin, and syntaxin 1A) in patients with multiple sclerosis.Study designCase-control study.MethodsA total of 123 patients with multiple sclerosis and 192 healthy controls were included. The functional polymorphisms of specific SNARE complex proteins (VAMP2, synaptotagmin XI, syntaxin 1A, and SNAP-25) were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction.ResultsSignificant differences were detected in the genotype and allele distribution of 26-bp Ins/Del polymorphisms of VAMP2 between patients with multiple sclerosis and control subjects; Del/Del genotype and Del allele of VAMP2 were more frequent in patients with multiple sclerosis (p=0.011 and p=0.004, respectively). Similarly, Ddel polymorphism of SNAP-25 gene C/C genotype (p=0.059), syntaxin 1A T/C and C/C genotypes (p=0.005), and synaptotagmin XI gene C allele (p=0.001) were observed more frequently in patients with multiple sclerosis. CC, syntaxin rs1569061 1A gene for 33-bp promoter region TC haplotypes, and synaptotagmin XI gene were found to be associated with an increased risk for multiple sclerosis (p=0.012). Similarly, GC haplotype for rs3746544 of SNAP-25 gene and rs1051312 of SNAP-25 gene were associated with an increased risk for multiple sclerosis (p=0.022).ConclusionGenetic polymorphisms of SNARE complex proteins, which have critical roles in synaptic structure and communication, may play a role in the development of multiple sclerosis.

Project description:Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex incurable neurodegenerative disease featuring demyelination of neurons, resulting in impairment of neuron impulses. Recently, an association of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) (rs2104286 and rs12722489) in interleukin 2 receptor subunit alpha (IL2RA) gene was found to be a risk factor of MS in white European population. Therefore, we performed a study to investigate the contribution of these two intronic variations in Iranian patients with MS. Methods: We determined the genotypes of rs2104286 and rs12722489 in patients with MS (n = 100) and in the control group (n = 111). The SNPs were genotyped using tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (T-ARMS-PCR) for both of SNPs. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS software. Also, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Results: Logistic regression revealed that various genotypes of rs12722489, regarding sex-adjusted effect, yielded meaningful association with MS risk in Iranian patients (OR = 2.67, 95% CI: 1.03-6.90). However, no association was obtained for rs2104286 and rs12722489 with MS. Conclusion: The results confirmed partially the reports in white European population performed recently. However, further investigation in larger scale is necessary to validate our study.

Project description:BackgroundThere is no consensus regarding the association between polymorphisms in the myosin IXB (MYO9B) gene and celiac disease (CD) risk. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate genetic variants in MYO9B with CD.MethodsFour MYO9B polymorphisms (rs1545620, rs1457092, rs2305767 and rs2305764) were assessed. A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases until June 2015. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to investigate the strength of the association under dominant, recessive, homozygote and allelic comparison models.ResultsSeven case-control studies with a total of 1965 CD patients and 4894 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that rs1545620 was associated with CD risk in Europeans in dominant (OR=1.31, 95% CI: 1.10-1.58, Pz =0.003), recessive (OR=1.36, 95% CI: 1.08-1.72, Pz =0.009), homozygote (OR=1.55, 95% CI: 1.20-2.01, Pz =0.001), and allelic comparison models (OR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.10-1.40, Pz =0.001), whereas in a Latin American group there were significant associations of CD with rs1457092 in dominant (OR=15.30, 95% CI: 3.51-66.67, Pz <0.001), homozygote (OR=16.55, 95% CI: 3.62-75.65, Pz <0.001), and allelic comparison models (OR=1.95, 95% CI: 1.31-2.91, Pz =0.001), and rs2305767 in dominant (OR=5.35, 95% CI: 2.42-11.86, Pz <0.001) and allelic comparison models (OR=1.65, 95% CI: 1.11-2.45, Pz =0.013). There was no association between rs2305764 and CD risk in either Europeans or the Latin American group.Conclusionrs1545620 is associated with CD risk in Europeans, whereas rs1457092 and rs2305767 are associated with CD risk in a Latin American group.

Project description:Myosin IXB (MYO9B) gene polymorphisms have been extensively investigated in terms of their associations with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with contradictory results. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate associations between MY09B gene polymorphisms and the risk of IBD, Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Eligible studies from PubMed, Embase, and CNKI databases were identified. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated. Ten studies published in eight papers reporting 8,975 cases and 9,482 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Five MY09B gene polymorphisms were evaluated: rs1545620, rs962917, rs1457092, rs2305764, and rs2305767. Our data suggested that the rs1545620 polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of IBD. A similar result was found for rs2305767 and UC. The rs962917 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) increased the risk of IBD, CD and UC. Moreover, rs1457092 increased the risk of IBD and UC. Rs2305764 was also associated with an increased risk of IBD. Furthermore, stratification analyses indicated that rs1545620 decreased the risk of IBD, while rs962917 increased the risk of IBD, CD and UC in Caucasian populations. To sum up, our data indicate that these five SNPs in MY09B are significantly associated with the risk of IBD.

Project description:AimTo explore the association of MYO9B gene polymorphisms with clinical phenotypes and intestinal permeability of individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in China.MethodsA total of 442 IBD patients and 402 healthy volunteers were genotyped for two single nucleotides (rs962917 and rs1545620) using the ligase detection reaction and polymerase chain reaction. Allelic and genotype frequency analyses were performed for the two groups. Intestinal permeability was evaluated using lactulose (L) and mannitol (M) excretion. The association of MYO9B gene polymorphisms with intestinal permeability between the normal and high intestinal permeability groups was analyzed.ResultsOverall, there was no significant difference in the genotypic and allelic frequencies of MYO9B between IBD patients and controls. Although no association was found with ulcerative colitis in the comparison between the subgroups, the frequencies of rs962917 and rs1545620 were different in the Crohn's disease (CD) subgroup with ileocolitis (CC vs CT and TT, P = 0.014; and AA vs AC and CC, P = 0.022, respectively). rs1545620 variants appear to be the genetic susceptibility factor for perianal disease in CD patients (AA vs AC CC, P = 0.029). In addition, the L/M ratio was significantly higher in IBD patients than in controls (0.065 ± 0.013 vs 0.020 ± 0.002, P = 0.02), but no association was found between the MYO9B gene and the L/M ratio in IBD patients.ConclusionMYO9B gene polymorphisms may influence the sub-phenotypic expression of CD in China. No association between these MYO9B polymorphisms and intestinal permeability in IBD patients was found.

Project description:BackgroundRegulatory T cells (Tregs) alterations have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Recently, a crucial role of the X-Linked Forkhead Box P3 (FoxP3) for the development and the stability of Tregs has emerged, and FOXP3 gene polymorphisms have been associated with the susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The expression of Foxp3 in Tregs is regulated by the transcription factor GATA binding-protein 3 (GATA3) and vitamin D3. The aim of this retrospective case-control study was to investigate the potential association between FOXP3 and GATA3 genetic variants, Vitamin D3, and MS risk.MethodsWe analyzed two polymorphisms in the FOXP3 gene (rs3761547 and rs3761548) and a polymorphism in the GATA3 gene (rs3824662) in 106 MS patients and 113 healthy controls. Serum 25(OH)D3 was also measured in all participants.ResultsNo statistically significant genotypic and allelic differences were found in the distribution of FOXP3 rs3761547 and rs3761548, or GATA3 rs3824662 in the MS patients, compared with controls. Patients that were homozygous for rs3761547 had lower 25(OH)D3 levels.ConclusionsOur findings did not show any association among FOXP3 and GATA3 SNPs, vitamin D3, and MS susceptibility.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple Sclerosis (MS) is a multifactorial disease whose pathogenesis is the result of interaction among genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. Among these, a role for vitamin D hypovitaminosis has emerged in recent decades. Vitamin D levels are influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes codifying for molecules involved in vitamin D metabolism have been associated with an increased risk of developing MS. However, few studies assessed the association of such SNPs with the severity of the disease. The aim of this observational study was to evaluate the potential association among vitamin D status, MS severity, and vitamin D-related SNPs, alone or in combination.MethodsIn a cohort of 100 MS patients, we genotyped 18 SNPs in the following genes: NAD synthetase 1, CYP2R1, vitamin D binding protein, vitamin D receptor, Retinoid X Receptor-α, KLOTHO, CYP24A1, and CYP27A1. Serum 25(OH)D3 levels were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Genotyping was performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction or PCR-RFLP.ResultsWe did not find any association between SNPs, alone or in combination, and MS severity.ConclusionIn this study, we make an initial evaluation of the possible influence of several SNPs in vitamin D-related genes on MS severity.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disorder with neurodegenerative aspects, is more common among young adults, particularly women.MethodsThis molecular study was designed to investigate the IL-7R α chain gene in Iranian MS patients. We studied 60 MS patients, diagnosed based on 2005 R-McDonald criteria and 60 apparently healthy individuals as the control group. DNA was extracted from whole blood cells using MBST/IRAN Extraction kit and all samples were screened for possible sequence variation in three regions including promoter, exon 2 and exon 4 with single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP).ResultsThe alterations were confirmed with direct sequencing by ABI 3730XL. Although no mutation was detected in the studied regions, eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) consisting of rs71617734 in promoter; rs35967524, rs11567704, rs1494558, rs11567705 and rs969128 in exon 2 as well as rs1494555 and rs2228141 in exon 4 were observed. The rs1494558 in exon 2 and rs1494555 in exon 4 were missense variations. Our results also showed the substitution of isoleucine with threonine in rs1494558 (P.I66T) with this accession number, FR863587 submitted in EMBL bank. The study of exon4 areas revealed two SNPs and two sequence variations, where [p.V138I] Valine substituted with isoleucine (FR863588), as well as a silent nucleotide substitution [P. H165H] in the absence of amino acid alteration. The analysis of the SNP genotype in the controls and the patients, using χ(2) showed no significant association with multiple sclerosis in this group.ConclusionOur study demonstrated the effects of some SNPs on the IL-7R α protein in MS. Further studies are required to reveal the effects of these SNPs on the IL-7R α protein in multiple sclerosis.
