Associations of IL-12, IL12R polymorphisms and serum IL-12 levels with high-risk human papillomavirus susceptibility in rural women from Luohe, Henan, China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Interleukin 12 (IL-12) and interleukin 12 receptor (IL12R), key inflammatory cytokines in the immune system, participate in bridging the innate immunity and adaptive immunity. No previous work has reported the role of IL-12 and IL12R in high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) susceptibility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of IL-12, IL12R polymorphisms, and serum IL-12 levels with hrHPV susceptibility in rural women from Luohe, Henan, China.

Methods

Two hundred sixty cases with hrHPV infection and 260 healthy controls were selected. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to detect the serum IL-12 levels, and the polymorphisms of IL12B rs3212227, IL12RB1 rs393548, and IL12RB1 rs436857 were determined using DNA sequencing.

Results

The serum IL-12 levels were significantly lower in cases with hrHPV infection compared with those in healthy controls (P < .01).There was no significant difference in IL12 rs3212227, IL12RB1rs436857, and IL12RB1rs393548 genotype and allele frequencies between cases and controls (P > .05). Furthermore, with respect to the IL12 rs3212227 polymorphism with serum IL-12 levels, although serum IL-12 levels were lower in cases than in controls, we did not find any differences between serum IL-12 levels and genotypes in cases(P > .05).

Conclusions

Our data demonstrates that low serum IL-12 levels may be associated with hrHPV susceptibility but are not associated with IL-12 gene polymorphisms; furthermore, IL-12 and IL12R gene polymorphisms may not contribute susceptibility to hrHPV in rural women from Luohe, Henan, China.

Project description:BackgroundThe epidemiological evidence on relationships between long-term exposure to particulate matter and hypertension and blood pressure has been inconclusive. Limited evidence was available for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter???1??m (PM1) in rural areas of developing countries.ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the associations between long-term exposure to PM1 and hypertension and blood pressure among rural Chinese population.MethodsThis study included 39,259 participants who had completed the baseline survey from Henan Rural Cohort. Participants' exposure to PM1 was assessed by a satellite-based spatiotemporal model. The binary logistic regression model was used to examine the association between long-term PM1 exposure and hypertension, and multivariable linear regression model was used to investigate the associations between long-term PM1 exposure and systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and pulse pressure (PP). Moreover, we examined potential effect modifications by demographic, lifestyle and diet factors.ResultsThe mean concentration of PM1 for all participants during the 3-year before baseline survey was 59.98??g/m3. Each 1??g/m3 increase in PM1 concentration was significantly associated with an increase of 4.3% [Odds ratio(OR)?=?1.043, 95% confidence interval(CI): 1.033, 1.053] in odds for hypertension, an increase of 0.401?mm?Hg (95% CI, 0.335, 0.467), 0.328?mm?Hg (95% CI, 0.288, 0.369), 0.353?mm?Hg (95% CI, 0.307, 0.399) and 0.073?mm?Hg (95% CI, 0.030, 0.116) in SBP, DBP, MAP and PP, respectively. Further stratified analyses showed that the effect of PM1 on hypertension and blood pressure could be modified by sex, lifestyle and diet.ConclusionsThis study suggests that long-term exposure to ambient PM1 increases the risk of hypertension and is associated with elevations in blood pressure in rural Chinese adults, especially in male and those with unhealthy habits.
