Association between gene polymorphisms in TIM1, TSLP, IL18R1 and childhood asthma in Turkish population.

ABSTRACT: UNLABELLED:Many immunologic and inflammatory mechanisms play a role in asthma etiology. The aim of this study was to investigate the susceptibility of asthma patients in the Turkish population with demonstrating genes for polymorphisms in TIM1, TSLP and IL18R1. All of the genomic DNA samples were isolated from blood samples according to a standard salting-out protocol. DNA samples were stored at -20°C until the genotype analysis was performed. rs3806933 (TSLP -847 C > T) and TIM1 -416G > C were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The rs3806933 (TSLP -847 C > T) was genotyped by PCR using our new primers and HphI restriction enzyme digestion. rs2287033 (IL18R1 c. 1270+150 A > G), rs3213733 (IL18R1 c. 626-196 G > T), and rs3771166 (IL18R1- c. 302+1694 C > T) were genotyped using SYBR green dye based real time PCR assay. RESULTS:The allele frequencies of 5 SNPs in TSLP, TIM-1, and IL18R1 genes were determined in 139 asthmatic patients and 126 healthy controls of in Turkish population. The investigated SNPs are as follows; rs3806933 (TSLP -847 C > T), TIM1 -416G > C, rs2287033 (IL18R1 c. 1270+150 A > G), rs3213733 (IL18R1 c. 626-196 G > T), and rs3771166 (IL18R1- c. 302+1694 C > T). Results suggest that IL18R1 c. 626-196 G > T (rs3213733) and TIM1 -416G > C are significantly associated with asthma in patients in Turkish population. Patients with AA genotypes of rs2287033 (IL18R1 c. 1270+150 A > G), have significantly less total serum IgE levels when compared with patients having GG or GA genotypes (p < 0.012; 381.77±239.46 vs 557.52±549.96, respectively). CONCLUSION:This study showed that IL18R1 c. 626 -196 G > T (rs3213733) and TIM1 -416G > C are significantly associated with asthma patients in Turkish population.

Project description:ObjectivesTo study the association of β2-drenergic receptor (ADRB2) regulatory region single nucleotides polymorphism (SNP)/haplotypes at rs11168070, rs17108803, rs2053044, rs12654778, rs11959427, and rs2895795 loci with childhood asthma.MethodsA total of 143 children with asthma who attended the hospital from October 2016 to October 2020 were enrolled as the asthma group, among whom 61 children had mild symptoms (mild group) and 82 children had moderate-to-severe symptoms (moderate-to-severe group). A total of 137 healthy children were enrolled as the control group. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected from the two groups. The SNaPshot SNP technique was used to analyze the SNP and haplotypes of the ADRB2 regulatory region at rs11168070, rs17108803, rs2053044, rs12654778, rs11959427, and rs2895795 loci in all children. The asthma group and the control group were compared in terms of the association of ADRB2 regulatory region SNP and haplotypes at the above six loci with susceptibility to asthma and severity of asthma.ResultsPolymorphisms were observed in the ADRB2 regulation region at the above six loci in both the asthma group and the control group, with significant differences between the two groups in the distribution of genotype and allele frequencies at rs2895795 (-1429T /A), rs2053044(-1023G/A), and rs12654778 (-654G/A) loci (P<0.05). Linkage disequilibrium of SNP was observed at the six loci of the ADRB2 regulatory region.The haplotypes of TATGCT, TATGGC, and AGTGCT were associated with susceptibility to childhood asthma, among which TATGCT and TATGGC were risk factors for childhood asthma (OR=1.792 and 1.946 respectively, P<0.05), while AGTGCT was a protective factor (OR=0.523, P<0.05).ConclusionsSNP/haplotype of the ADRB2 regulatory region is associated with the susceptibility to childhood asthma. The haplotypes of TATGCT and TATGGC formed by such SNP/haplotype are risk factors for childhood asthma, while AGTGCT is a protective factor.
