Lack of association between mutation in IL36RN and palmoplantar pustular psoriasis in Chinese patients.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Palmoplantar pustulosis is considered to be a localized pustular psoriasis confined to the palms and soles. Mutation of the IL36RN gene, encoding interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra), is associated with generalized pustular psoriasis, but IL36RN mutations in Chinese palmoplantar pustulosis patients have not previously been investigated. OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to evaluate the mutation of IL36RN in Chinese patients with palmoplantar pustulosis. METHODS:Fifty-one Han Chinese patients with palmoplantar pustulosis were recruited. All exons and exon-intron boundary sequences of IL36RN were amplified in polymerase chain reactions, and Sanger sequencing of the amplicons was performed. RESULTS:Among the 51 palmoplantar pustulosis patients, four different single-base substitutions were identified in nine patients. The mutations were c.140A>G/p.Asn47Ser in five patients, c.258G>A/p.Met86IIe in two patients, and c.115+6T>C and c.169G>A/p.Val57IIe in one patient each. All mutations were heterozygous. Comparison with the human genome database and reported literature suggested that these variants may not be pathogenic mutations causing palmoplantar pustulosis. Furthermore, there was no difference in disease severity, onset age, or disease duration between patients with these heterozygous IL36RN variants and those without (p>0.1). STUDY LIMITATION:Lack of the further evaluation of IL36Ra protein in palmoplantar pustulosis lesions. CONCLUSIONS:The four variants of IL36RN identified did not appear to be associated with the specific phenotypes of palmoplantar pustulosis.

Project description:BackgroundGeneralized pustular psoriasis (GPP) is a systemic inflammatory disease with poor outcomes, and several studies have suggested that the mutation of the interleukin 36 receptor antagonist gene (IL36RN) is related to GPP, where the polymorphism c.115+6T>C is reported to be the most common mutation of IL36RN. This study was performed to clarify and comprehensively evaluate the relationship between IL36RN gene polymorphism and the susceptibility of GPP subtypes.MethodsTo conduct a thorough literature review, studies were obtained using databases such as Pubmed, EMBASE, Cochrane, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and the Wanfang database. Only studies published up to December 2019 were included. The quality of the research studies was estimated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. The total odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were pooled and analysed using STATA 14. The publication bias was evaluated through the Egger test, performed using the aforementioned software. Five common gene models were built and analysed to assess the association between the polymorphism c.115+6T>C and subtypes of GPP.ResultsA total of 10 studies were selected, including 683 cases of GPP patients. Meta-analyses showed that there was a significant statistical correlation of IL36RN mutation between GPP with or without psoriasis vulgaris (OR = 3.82, 95%CI 2.63-5.56) and between adult GPP and paediatric GPP (OR = 0.42, 95%CI 0.23-0.77). No obvious discrepancy between European patients (OR = 4.03, 95%CI 2.23-7.26) and Asian patients was found. The gene models showed clear associations between the polymorphism c.115+6T>C and GPP through the dominant model (CC+ TC vs TT, OR 2.74, 95%CI 2.06-3.64), recessive model (CC vs CT + TT, OR 4.33, 95%CI 2.84-6.60), homozygote model (CC vs TT, OR 4.37, 95%CI 2.88-6.62), heterozygote model (CT vs TT, OR 2.26, 95%CI 1.32-3.85) and allelic model (C vs T, OR 3.35, 95%CI 2.63-4.27).ConclusionThe IL36RN mutation is strongly related to GPP without psoriasis vulgaris and the early onset of GPP. Furthermore, the single-nucleotide polymorphism c.115+6T>C of the IL36RN gene plays a significant role in GPP vulnerability, especially in homozygous mutation. GPP could be a different inflammatory disease, independent of psoriasis.
