Lack of Association between Interleukin 23R (IL-23R) rs10889677 Polymorphism and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Susceptibility In an Iranian Population.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), which include ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are inflammatory disorders that affect the gastrointestinal tract. A combination of inflammatory cytokines has an important role in IBD development. Genome-wide association studies have shown that polymorphisms in the interleukin-23R gene (IL-23R) increase susceptibility to IBD. The aim of this study was to investigate the IL-23R 3' UTR SNP to determine a potential association between genotype distribution and IBD.

Methods

The case group included 102 IBD patients and the control group included 107 healthy individuals. IL-23R polymorphisms rs10889677 were genotyped using PCR-RFLP analysis. RFLP results were confirmed by direct sequencing.

Results

The allele and genotype frequencies in patients and controls were evaluated and compared, and no significant association between this functional rs10889677 polymorphism and risk of IBD was observed (P=0.587; adjusted OR: 0.89; 95% CI: 0.597-1.339). We also found no significant association between CD (14.71%) and UC (85.29%) patients in allele or genotype levels (P>0.05).

Conclusion

Our results suggest that the rs10889677 A>C polymorphism is not a potential prognostic marker in Iranian patients with IBD.
