Interleukin-6 (IL-6)-597 A/G (rs1800797) & -174 G/C (rs1800795) gene polymorphisms in type 2 diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Background & objectives

Diabetes is a metabolic pro-inflammatory disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia and increased levels of circulating cytokines suggesting a causal role for inflammation in its aetiology. In order to decipher the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) we analyzed two promoter polymorphisms -597 A/G (rs1800797) and -174 G/C (rs1800795) in T2DM cases from north India, and in healthy controls.

Methods

DNA was isolated from venous blood samples of T2DM patients (n=213) and normal healthy controls (n=145). Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was performed after biochemical analysis. The genotypic and allelic frequency distributions were analyzed.

Results

The clinical/biochemical parameters of T2DM cases when compared to controls showed a significant difference. No significant association was observed with -597A/G polymorphism while, -174 G/C showed a highly significant association (P<0.001). In haplotypic analysis, combination of -597GFNx01/-174CFNx01 showed significant association (P=0.010).

Interpretation & conclusions

Our data suggest that IL-6 gene polymorphisms play a prominent role in T2DM disease susceptibility in population from north India.

Project description:PurposeThe success of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is compromised by complications such as infection, relapse, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The investigation of non-HLA immunogenetics, particularly of cytokines, could identify predictors of an unfavorable outcome after allogeneic HSCT. In this study, we examined the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the promoter region of interleukin 6 (IL6) on the development of GVHD after pediatric allogeneic HSCT.MethodsIn this retrospective analysis, we included 320 pediatric patients with a median age of 10 years who underwent an allogeneic HSCT and their respective donors. We used TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction to analyze the SNPs IL6-174 (G/C) and IL6-597 (G/A). The IL6-174 polymorphism was examined in 300 recipients and 295 donors. The IL6-597 polymorphism was analyzed in 299 recipients and 296 donors. We investigated the influence of the IL6-174 and IL6-597 polymorphisms on overall survival, event-free survival, relapse incidence, transplant-related mortality, and the occurrence of GVHD.ResultsG polymorphism at position 174 of the recipient IL6 gene was associated with a higher incidence of acute GVHD (GG vs. GC/CC; P = 0.024). Patients with IL6-597 GG genotype developed acute GVHD more frequently than individuals with an A allele (GG vs. GA vs. AA; P = 0.013). IL6-174 GG homozygous recipients had a more frequent occurrence of chronic GVHD (GG vs. GC/CC; P = 0.049). We observed a significant increased risk of chronic GVHD in recipients with IL6-597 GG genotype (GG vs. GA vs. AA; P = 0.043). Polymorphisms of donors did not affect the incidence of acute GVHD and chronic GVHD. In multivariate analysis, the IL6-174 and IL6-597 SNPs were independent significant risk factors for acute GVHD (P = 0.030; P = 0.007, respectively) as well as for chronic GVHD (P = 0.045; P = 0.015, respectively). In addition, older age at time of transplantation turned out to be a significant risk factor for chronic GVHD (P = 0.003).ConclusionOur study identified the IL6-174 and IL6-597 GG genotypes of pediatric allogeneic HSCT recipients as genetic risk factors for the development of acute GVHD and chronic GVHD. After evaluations in further studies, these findings could implicate the adjustment of prophylactic measures to reduce the occurrence of acute GVHD and chronic GVHD.

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.
