Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen 4 polymorphisms and asthma risk: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A number of studies assessed the association of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene polymorphisms with asthma in different populations. However, the results were contradictory. We performed a meta-analysis to examine the association between CTLA-4 polymorphisms and asthma susceptibility.

Methods

Pubmed, EMBASE, HuGE Navigator, and Wanfang Database were searched. Data were extracted independently by two reviewers. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of associations.

Results

Seventeen studies involving 6378 cases and 8674 controls were included. Significant association between +49 A/G polymorphism and asthma was observed for AA vs. AG+GG (OR?=?1.18, 95% CI 1.01-1.37, P?=?0.04). There were no significant associations between -318 C/T, -1147 C/T, CT60 A/G, -1722 C/T, or rs926169 polymorphisms and asthma risk.

Conclusions

This meta-analysis suggested that the +49 A/G polymorphism in CTLA-4 was a risk factor for asthma.

Genetic Polymorphisms of Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4 in Primary Biliary Cholangitis: A Meta-Analysis.

Project description:Background and aimThe connection between gene polymorphisms of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4) and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is still vague and blurred. The purpose of this study is to precisely estimate the association of the polymorphisms of CTLA4 with the risk of PBC by using a meta-analysis.MethodsPubMed and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database were used to search correlative literatures, and the documents which were about the relationships between the polymorphisms of CTLA4 (rs231775, rs231725, rs3087243, and rs5742909) and PBC were collected as of June 2016. The strength of correlation based on odds ratios (ORs) and its 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) was computed by STATA.ResultsGenerally, in rs231775, a significant risk was found in G allele, the value of OR was 1.32, and its 95%CI was 1.19 to 1.47. The same situation was found in A allele of rs231725, the value of OR was 1.33, and its 95%CI was 1.22 to 1.45. As genotypic level, different genotypic models were also found to have obvious relevance with PBC in rs231775 and rs231725. No obvious connections were found in other SNPs.ConclusionThis study indicated that the polymorphisms of rs231775 and rs231725 would be the risk factors of PBC.

Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 gene polymorphisms and autoimmune thyroid diseases: an updated systematic review and cumulative meta-analysis.

Project description:The association of the cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene and susceptibility to autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs) has been studied extensively. However, the results were not the same in different ethnic groups. We updated the meta-analysis of association of CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms with AITDs and summarized the results in specific ethnicity. The associations of A49G gene polymorphism with GD, A49G gene polymorphism with HT, CT60 gene polymorphism with GD, and CT60 gene polymorphism with HT were summarized based on the literatures published up to October 30, 2014, in English or Chinese languages. The participants involved in the studies of A49G with GD, A49G with HT, CT60 with GD, and CT60HT were 39004 subjects (in 51 studies), 13102 subjects (in 22 studies), 31446 subjects (in 22 studies), and 6948 subjects (in 8 studies), respectively. The pooled ORs of CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms with AITDs were larger than 1.00, and the 95% CIs of ORs were statistically significant among whole population analyses. However, the subgroup analysis demonstrated that pooled ORs of A49G polymorphisms with GD among Africans or Americans are less than 1.00. The accumulated evidence suggests that the G allele mutant of A49G and CT60 increased the risks of HT and GD.

Associations between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 gene polymorphisms and diabetes mellitus: a meta-analysis of 76 case-control studies.

Project description:Background: Several genetic association studies already investigated potential roles of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene polymorphisms in diabetes mellitus (DM), with inconsistent results. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to better assess the relationship between CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms and DM in a larger pooled population.Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI were systematically searched for eligible studies. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the strength of associations between CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms and DM in all possible genetic models.Results: A total of 76 studies were finally included in our analyses. Significant associations with susceptibility to type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) were detected for rs231775 (dominant model: P=0.008, OR = 0.83, 95%CI 0.73-0.95; recessive model: P=0.003, OR = 1.27, 95%CI 1.09-1.50; allele model: P=0.004, OR = 0.85, 95%CI 0.77-0.95) and rs5742909 (recessive model: P=0.02, OR = 1.50, 95%CI 1.05-2.13) polymorphisms in overall population. Further subgroup analyses revealed that rs231775 polymorphism was significantly associated with susceptibility to T1DM in Caucasians and South Asians, and rs5742909 polymorphism was significantly associated with susceptibility to T1DM in South Asians. Moreover, rs231775 polymorphism was also found to be significantly associated with susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in East Asians and South Asians.Conclusions: Our findings indicated that rs231775 and rs5742909 polymorphisms may serve as genetic biomarkers of T1DM, and rs231775 polymorphism may also serve as a genetic biomarker of T2DM.

Effect of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4, TNF-alpha polymorphisms on osteosarcoma: evidences from a meta-analysis.

Project description:ObjectivePrevious studies have investigated the role of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in carcinogenesis of osteosarcoma, but their results were inconsistent. We aimed to clarify the associations between CTLA-4, TNF-α polymorphism and osteosarcoma risk by using meta-analysis.MethodsWe searched relevant studies without language restriction in PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar databases, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and conference literature in humans published prior to March 2013. The strengths of the associations between genetic variants and osteosarcoma risk were estimated by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI).ResultsA total of seven studies with 1,198 osteosarcoma patients and 1,493 controls were selected. Four studies were eligible for CTLA-4 (1,003 osteosarcoma and 1,162 controls), and three studies for TNF-α (195 osteosarcoma and 331 controls). Pooled results showed that rs231775 polymorphism of CTLA-4 was associated with osteosarcoma risk (GG vs. AA: OR=1.63, 95% CI=1.24-2.13; GG + GA vs. AA: OR=1.56, 95% CI=1.21-2.01; AA + GA vs. GG: OR=0.83, 95% CI=0.71-0.97; G vs. A: OR=1.21, 95% CI=1.08-1.36). No significant heterogeneity was observed across the studies. No signiﬁcant associations were found between rs5742909 polymorphism of CTLA-4 or rs1800629 polymorphism of TNF-α and osteosarcoma risk.ConclusionsThese results suggest that the rs231775 polymorphism of CTLA-4 may play an important role in carcinogenesis of osteosarcoma.

Association between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 +49A/G polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk: a meta-analysis.

Project description:The Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene has been implicated in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the results are inconsistent. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the associations between the CTLA-4 +49A/G polymorphism and risk of CRC. Relevant studies were identified using PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and WanFang databases up to November 10, 2014. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the association using the fixed or random effect model. A total of 8 case-control studies, including 1180 cases and 2110 controls, were included. Overall, a significant association between the CTLA-4 +49A/G polymorphism and CRC risk was found (dominant model: OR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.09-2.43; AG vs. AA: OR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.15-2.48). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, we observed a significant association in Asian descent (dominant model: OR=2.42, 95% CI: 1.40-4.16; AG vs. AA: OR=2.39, 95% CI: 1.52-3.76), but not among Europeans; when stratified by source of control, no significant association was detected in both population-based and hospital-based populations. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the CTLA-4 +49A/G polymorphism significantly increases the risk of CRC, especially for Asians.

Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 gene polymorphisms and biliary atresia susceptibility in Chinese children.

Project description:Biliary atresia (BA) is a devastating liver disease of complex pathogenesis in neonates, characterized by an inflammatory and fibrosing obstruction of extrahepatic bile ducts. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA4) is expressed on the surface of a subset of regulatory T cells (Treg) and down regulates the human immune response. To investigate the possible association between CTLA4 gene polymorphisms and BA susceptibility, we conducted a case-control study in the Chinese children. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CLTA4 gene (rs231725, rs231775 and rs3087243) were genotyped in 113 BA patients and 133 healthy controls. The statistical analysis revealed no significant difference between BA patients and healthy controls in allele or genotype frequencies (rs231725, P = 0.2718, OR = 0.814, 95% CI = 0.564-1.175; rs231775, P = 0.1599, OR = 1.316, 95% CI = 0.897-1.931; rs3087243, P = 0.0572, OR = 1.582, 95% CI = 0.984-2.543), neither in the distribution of haplotypes of these CTLA4 gene SNPs. The result of our study is the first one to provide the evidence that there is no significant association between CLTA4 gene polymorphisms and BA susceptibility in Chinese children.

Distribution of Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte-Associated Antigen-4 Promoter Polymorphisms in Taiwanese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with chronic inflammation, suggesting the metabolic abnormalities are originated from or exacerbated by cytokine overproduction. Cytokines and counter-regulatory molecules are crucial in keeping the balance of immune responses and, therefore, are potential candidates involved in T2DM etiology, development and complications. Our previous reports identify several significant associations between the genotypes of cytokine genes and T2DM and/or the clinical lipid parameters, which strongly suggest the participation of immune-regulatory molecules in lipid metabolism. The aim of this study is to determine the distribution of gene encoding cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4), a T-cell negative regulator, in T2DM patients and health subjects. Genomic DNA was extracted from 287 Taiwanese T2DM patients and 278 ethnic- and age- matched healthy subjects, and two CTLA-4 polymorphisms (-318 C/T and +49 A/G) were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Intriguingly, CTLA-4 -318 genotype was associated with circulatory triglycerides in T2DM subjects (P=0.019) although no significant association between CTLA-4 -318 (P=0.119) and +49 (P=0.2) genotypes with T2DM was identified. In addition, CTLA-4 +49 genotype was significantly associated with the ratio between total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (P=0.004) in control subjects. Our results suggest that CTLA-4 may be involved in lipid metabolism and affect T2DM disease progression and/or the development of diabetic complications although this gene does not represent a major risk factor for T2DM.

Impact of the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen-4 rs231775 A/G polymorphism on cancer risk.

Project description:BackgroundCytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is an immunosuppressive checkpoint that is involved in the development and metastasis of cancers. Several studies revealed that CTLA-4 rs231775A/G polymorphism may be associated with the risk of cancer in some populations, but the conclusions of these studies are not consistent.MethodsWe conducted a pooled analysis with eligible studies to explore the association between the CTLA-4 rs231775 variant and cancer risk. Additionally, we used in silico tools to evaluated the expression of CTLA-4 on urinary system cancer. Moreover, we adopted the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to investigate the effects of CTLA-4 on bladder cancer (BLCA).ResultsIn total, 92 case-control studies involving 29,987 patients with cancer and 36,484 healthy individuals (controls) were included in the pooled analysis. In the stratified analysis based on cancer type, the rs231775 A/G polymorphism was associated with increased bladder cancer risk in the heterozygote contrast model (OR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.01-1.51, P = 0.040). The race-stratified analysis revealed that East Asians with the GG genotype had a 12% lower risk of developing cancer than those with the GA + AA genotype (95% CI = 0.81-0.95, P = 0.001). The in silico analysis showed that CTLA-4 expression was augmented in patients with BLCA. The ELISA results revealed that CTLA-4 expression was reduced in patients with BLCA carrying the AA genotype. Several signaling pathways, including cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions and T-cell receptor signaling, were associated with CTLA-4 expression.ConclusionThe CTLA-4 rs231775 A/G polymorphism is associated with cancer risk in East Asian population. This polymorphism is especially associated with BLCA.

Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene polymorphisms in a cohort of Egyptian patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

Project description:BackgroundImmune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is characterized by immune response dysregulations. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) plays a central role in immune checkpoint pathways and preventing autoimmune diseases by regulating immune tolerance. We aimed to explore the potential association between CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms and ITP as well as study their impact on the response to therapy.MethodsWe investigated two CTLA-4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs: 231775 and rs: 3087243) using real-time PCR as well as the plasma levels of CTLA-4 by ELISA in 88 patients with ITP and 44 healthy participants (HC).ResultsCTLA-4 (rs: 3087243) A > G polymorphism analysis showed most HC had the homozygous AA genotype, which was statistically significant compared to patients with ITP. Plasma levels of CTLA4 were statistically lower in patients with acute ITP. There was no correlation between CTLA-4 (rs: 231775 and rs: 3087243) A/G SNPs were not correlated to the response to all lines of therapy assessed (corticosteroids, thrombopoietin receptor agonists, splenectomy, and rituximab).ConclusionCTLA-4 CT 60 A/G may affect the susceptibility of ITP, but both CTLA-4 + 49 A/G and CT60 A/G did not impact the response of patients with ITP to different lines of therapy.

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 +49A/G polymorphisms contribute to the risk of type 1 diabetes in children: An updated systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis.

Project description:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a heritable disease associated with multiple genetic variants. This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed the correlation between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(CTLA-4) +49A/G polymorphisms and the risk of T1D in children. The random effects model was used to estimate the related odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was used to determine whether the currently available evidence was sufficient and conclusive. Our results indicated that CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms significantly increased the risk of childhood T1D in an allelic model (G vs. A: OR=1.33, 95%CI=1.19-1.48; I2=44.0% and P=0.001for heterogeneity) and a codominant model (GG vs. AA: OR=1.75, 95%CI=1.37-2.24; I2=57.5% and P=0.001for heterogeneity; GA vs. AA: OR=1.26, 95%CI=1.09-1.46; I2=40.4% and P=0.036for heterogeneity). Subgroup analysis results indicated that the ORs were higher in the Asian population (ORallelic model=1.60, ORGG vs. AA=2.46 and ORGA vs. AA=1.58) than the Caucasian population (ORallelic model==1.24, ORGG vs. AA=1.55 and ORGA vs. AA=1.19). The TSA results indicated that the evidence of the effect was sufficient. In conclusion, CTLA4 +49A/G polymorphisms increased the risk of T1D in children, and CTLA4 +49A/G can be considered to be a genetic marker for T1D in children.
