Association between the IL1B (-511), IL1B (+3954), IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms and Graves' disease risk: a meta-analysis of 11 case-control studies.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Data on the association between the interleukin-1 (IL-1) gene polymorphisms and Graves' disease (GD) risk were conflicting. A meta-analysis was undertaken to assess this association. METHODS: We searched for case-control studies investigating the association between the IL1B (-511), IL1B (+3954), IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms and GD risk. We extracted data using standardized forms and calculated odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: A total of 11 case-control studies were included in this meta-analysis. Available data indicated that the IL1B (-511) polymorphism was associated with GD risk in the overall populations (Caucasians and Asians) in homozygote model (TT vs. CC, OR?=?0.86, 95% CI: 0.76-0.97, Pz ?=?0.015), but not in dominant and recessive models (TT+TC vs. CC: OR?=?0.95, 95% CI: 0.81-1.12, Pz ?=? 0.553 and TT vs. TC+CC: OR?=?0.82, 95% CI: 0.60-1.12, Pz ?=? 0.205, respectively). No association between the IL1B (+3954), IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms and GD risk was found in the overall populations in any of the genetic models. In subgroup analyses according to ethnicity, the IL1B (-511) polymorphism was associated with GD risk in Asians in recessive and homozygote models (TT vs. TC+CC: OR?=? 0.68, 95% CI: 0.55-0.84, Pz < 0.001 and TT vs. CC: OR?=?0.81, 95% CI: 0.70-0.93, Pz ?= ?0.003, respectively), but not in dominant model (TT+TC vs. CC: OR?= ?0.92, 95% CI: 0.77-1.11, Pz ?=? 0.389). No association between the IL1B (+3954), IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms and GD risk was indicated in Asians, and we found no association between the IL1B (-511), IL1B (+3954), IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms and GD risk in Caucasians in any of the genetic models. CONCLUSION: The IL1B (-511) polymorphism, but not the IL1B (+3954) and IL1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms was associated with GD risk in Asians. There was no association between these polymorphisms and GD risk in Caucasians.

Project description:PURPOSE: To investigate the genetic association between unrelated Korean keratoconus patients and interleukin 1 alpha (IL1A), interleukin 1 beta (IL1B), and IL1 receptor antagonist (IL1RN) gene polymorphisms. METHODS: We investigated the association between IL1A (rs1800587, rs2071376, and rs17561), IL1B (rs1143627, rs16944, rs1143634, and rs1143633), and IL1RN (rs419598, rs423904, rs424078, and rs315952, variable number tandem repeat [VNTR]) polymorphisms in 100 unrelated Korean keratoconus patients. One hundred control individuals without any corneal disease were selected from the general population. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) - restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis and direct sequencing were used to screen for genetic variations in the IL1 gene cluster. Haplotypes for the IL1 gene cluster were constructed using Haploview version 4.0. RESULTS: We analyzed a total of 12 polymorphic sites in the IL1 gene cluster. Among them, the -511 (rs16944) and -31 (rs1143627) positions in the promoter region of IL1B were significantly different between patient and control groups. The C allele of rs16944 (-511C>T, p=0.022, odds ratio of risk [OR]=1.46, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 0.94<2.27) and the T allele of rs1143627 (-31T>C, p=0.025, OR=1.43, 95% CI 0.92<2.22) were associated with a significantly increased risk of keratoconus in Korean patients. Linkage of the two alleles, -31*C and -511*T, was associated with an increased risk for keratoconus with OR=2.38 (p=0.012, 95% CI=1.116-5.046). The *C/*A genotype of rs2071376 in IL1A intron 6 was significantly different between the keratoconus patients and control subjects (p=0.034, OR=0.59, 95% CI 0.32<1.11). Other polymorphisms did not show an association with keratoconus risk. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first report of IL1 gene cluster mutation screening in Korean keratoconus patients. Significant differences in allelic frequency of IL1B between keratoconus patients and the control group suggest that IL1B polymorphisms may play a role in the susceptibility of unrelated Koreans to develop keratoconus.

Project description:Interleukin-1 (IL-1) plays an essential role in the immune pro-inflammatory process, which is regarded as one of many factors in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Several case-control studies have illustrated the association of the IL-1B (-511) (rs16944, Chr 2:112,837,290, C/T Intragenic, Transition Substitution) and IL-1RN (VNTR) (gene for IL-1 receptor antagonist, IL-1RA, 86 bp tandem repeats in intron 2) polymorphisms with T2DM risk. However, the results were inconsistent and inconclusive. We performed a meta-analysis (registry number: CRD42021268494) to assess the association of the IL-1B (-511) and IL-1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms with T2DM risk. Random-effects models were applied to calculate the pooled ORs (odds ratios) and 95% CIs (confidence intervals) to test the strength of the association in the overall group and subgroups stratified by ethnicity, respectively. Between-study heterogeneity and publication bias were evaluated by the Q-test, I2 statistic, Harbord test, and Peters test accordingly. Sensitivity analyses were also performed. A total of 12 publications evaluating the association of IL-1B (-511) and IL-1RN (VNTR) polymorphisms with the risk of T2DM development were included. The meta-analysis showed that IL-1RN (VNTR) was related to the increasing development of T2DM risk in the recessive model (OR = 1.62, 95% CI [1.09-2.42], Phet = 0.377, Pz = 0.018) and in the homozygous model (OR = 2.02, 95% CI [1.07-3.83], Phet = 0.085, Pz = 0.031), and the IL-1RN 2* allele was found a significant association with evaluated T2DM risk in all ethnicities (OR = 2.08, 95% CI [1.43-3.02], Phet < 0.001, Pz < 0.001) and in EA (OR = 2.01, 95% CI [1.53-2.66], Phet = 0.541, Pz < 0.001). Moreover, stratification by ethnicity revealed that IL-1B (-511) was associated with a decreased risk of T2DM in the dominant model (OR=0.76, 95% CI [0.59-0.97], Phet = 0.218, P z = 0.027) and codominant model (OR = 0.73, 95% CI [0.54-0.99], Phet = 0.141, Pz = 0.040) in the East Asian (EA) subgroup. Our results suggest that the IL-1RN 2* allele and 2*2* homozygous polymorphism are strongly associated with increasing T2DM risk and that the IL-1B (-511) T allele polymorphism is associated with decreasing T2DM risk in the EA subgroup.
