Impact of IL-10 (-1082) promoter-single nucleotide polymorphism on the outcome of hepatitis C virus genotype 4 infection.

ABSTRACT:

Unlabelled

Immunoregulatory cytokines may influence the hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection outcome. This study aimed to determine the genotypic and allelic frequencies of the interleukin (IL)-10 (-1082) G/A polymorphism, and its association with chronicity or resolution of HCV genotype 4 infection in Egypt. The frequencies of different dimorphic polymorphisms based on single nucleotide substitution in chronic HCV patients (50) and resolved HCV patients (50) were: IL-10 (-1082) G/G 22 (44%) and 18 (36%), G/A 19 (38%) and 24 (48%), and A/A 9 (18%), and 8 (16%), respectively. In the sustained virologic response (SVR) (36) and spontaneously resolved subjects (14) groups, the frequencies were: IL-10 (-1082) G/G 11 (30.6%) and 7 (50%) G/A 18 (50%) and 6 (42.9%), A/A 7 (19.4%) and 1 (7.1%), respectively. An association between male gender and chronic hepatitis C outcome (P value 0.041) was found. However, no significant gender difference was found when we compared females versus males with elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) levels in the chronic HCV patient group (P value = 1).

Conclusion

No significant difference in the frequency of IL-10 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position 1082 was found between chronic and resolved HCV subjects.

Project description:Background and Purpose- The E3 ubiquitin ligase MDM2 (murine double minute 2) is the main negative regulator of the p53 protein-a key player in neuronal apoptosis after ischemia. A functional single-nucleotide polymorphism in the human MDM2 gene promoter (rs2279744) regulates MDM2 protein expression. We investigated whether the MDM2 SNP309, by controlling p53-mediated apoptosis, determines functional outcome after stroke. Methods- Primary cortical neurons were subjected to oxygen and glucose deprivation. Mice were subjected to ischemic (transient middle cerebral artery occlusion) or hemorrhagic (collagenase injection) stroke models. Protein and mRNA levels of MDM2 and p53 were measured in both neuronal and brain extracts. The interaction of MDM2 with p53 was disrupted by neuronal treatment with nutlin-3a. siRNA was used to knockdown MDM2 expression. We analyzed the link between the MDM2 SNP309 and functional outcome, measured by the modified Rankin Scale scores, in 2 independent hospital-based stroke cohorts: ischemic stroke cohort (408 patients) and intracerebral hemorrhage cohort (128 patients). Results- Experimental stroke and oxygen and glucose deprivation induced the expression of MDM2 in the brain and neurons, respectively. Moreover, oxygen and glucose deprivation promoted MDM2 binding with p53 in neurons. Disruption of the MDM2-p53 interaction with nutlin-3a, or MDM2 knockdown by siRNA, triggered p53 accumulation, which increased neuronal susceptibility to oxygen and glucose deprivation-induced apoptosis. Finally, we showed that patients harboring the G allele in the MDM2 promoter had higher MDM2 protein levels and showed better functional outcome after stroke than those harboring the T/T genotype. The T/T genotype was also associated with large infarct volume in ischemic stroke and increased lesion volume in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Conclusions- Our results reveal a novel role for the MDM2-p53 interaction in neuronal apoptosis after ischemia and show that the MDM2 SNP309 determines the functional outcome of patients after stroke.

Project description:BackgroundInterleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 are the most important cytokine with pro and anti-inflammatory activities, respectively. Dysregulation of IL-6 and IL-10 are associated with increased risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Despite this, a fundamental understanding of both cytokine gene polymorphisms with its expression is critical in understanding of cellular mechanism of insulin resistance as well as T2DM intervention. Therefore, this study aimed to assess IL-6 (- 174 G/C) and IL-10 (- 1082 A/G) gene polymorphism, and its association with T2DM, North West Ethiopia.MethodsA comparative cross-sectional study from January to May 2018 was conducted on study participants with T2DM and apparently healthy controls. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extraction and genotyping was carried out by using amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction to detect polymorphism of IL-6 and IL-10 gene at the position - 174 and - 1082, respectively. The logistic regression model was fitted to assess the association of between cytokine gene polymorphisms and T2DM. Odds ratio with 95% CI was determined to assess the presence and strength of association between the explanatory variables and outcome variable. A P-value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.ResultParticipants carrying the GG genotype of IL-6 (- 174) (OR (95% CI) = 4.61 (2.07-10.54) was a high likelihood of having T2DM compared to those carrying the CC and AA genotypes. AA and AG genotypes of IL-10 (- 1082) were at lower odd of developing T2DM compared to those carrying the GG genotype. In addition, individuals carrying the G allele of IL-6 (- 174) have 2.82-fold odds of developing T2DM compared to individuals carrying the C allele (OR (95% CI) =2.81 (1.78-4.50)).ConclusionOur study revealed that genetic polymorphisms of IL-6 (- 174) GG genotype is the potential host genetic risk factors to T2DM. While, IL-10 (- 1082) AA genotype is negatively associated with T2DM. Therefore, IL-6 (- 174) and IL-10 (- 1082) genetic variation may be considered as a biomarker for early screening and diagnosis of T2DM.
