Association of the IL-6R gene polymorphic variant rs2228145(C>A) with IL-6 gene polymorphisms in a healthy cohort of Turkish population.

ABSTRACT: The main aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of the carriership of rs2228145 allelic variations of IL-6R with two other allelic variations in IL-6 gene at rs1800795 and rs1800796 loci and with the laboratory data of a healthy cohort of the Turkish population. The data of 121 healthy Turkish subjects (aged 12-84 years) including the past diseases, comorbidities were collected. The laboratory parameters were compared by the frequency of alleles of rs2228145 (C>A). The possible association of polymorphism at rs2228145 locus with the age, gender, and body mass index (BMI) and the frequencies of alleles of rs1800795 and rs1800796 polymorphisms were evaluated. The majority of the subjects had allele A at rs2228145 locus and allele G at rs1800796 locus. The number of white blood cells, platelets, neutrophils and monocytes were significantly higher in the subjects with allele C than those with allele A at rs2228145 locus (P < 0.05). The concentrations of total and direct bilirubin, iron, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) and folic acid of the subjects with allele C were significantly lower than those with allele A (P < 0.05). The uric acid and fasting insulin levels were higher in the subjects with allele C compared with those allele A (P = 0.04). The diversities of the hematological parameters, laboratory findings of liver function tests and renal panel and hormone levels may be explained by the variants of rs2228145 locus at IL-6R gene among healthy Turkish individuals.

A common variant of the interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6r) gene increases IL-6r and IL-6 levels, without other inflammatory effects.

Project description:Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a key inflammatory cytokine, signalling to most tissues by binding to a soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6r), making a complex with gp130. We used 1273 subjects (mean age 68 years) from the InCHIANTI Italian cohort to study common variation in the IL-6r locus and associations with interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6r), IL-6, gp130 and a battery of inflammatory markers. The rs4537545 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) tags the functional non-synonymous Asp358Ala variant (rs8192284) in IL-6r (r(2)=0.89, n=343). Individuals homozygous for the rs4537545 SNP minor allele (frequency 40%) had a doubling of IL-6r levels (132.48 pg/ml, 95% CI 125.13-140.27) compared to the common allele homozygous group (68.31 pg/ml, 95% CI 65.35-71.41): in per allele regression models, the rs4537545 SNP accounted for 20% of the variance in sIL-6r, with P=5.1 x 10(-62). The minor allele of rs4537545 was also associated with higher circulating IL-6 levels (P=1.9 x 10(-4)). There was no association of this variant with serum levels of gp130 or with any of the studied pro- and anti-inflammatory markers. A common variant of the IL-6r gene results in major changes in IL-6r and IL-6 serum levels, but with no apparent effect on gp130 levels or on inflammatory status in the general population.

Evaluation of gene-gene interaction between the interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-2RA gene polymorphisms in schizophrenia patients in the Turkish Population.

Project description:ObjectivesTo evaluate the genetic polymorphisms in IL-2 and IL-2RA genes in schizophrenia (SCZ) patients by comparing them with healthy controls.MethodsA sample of 127 patients with SCZ and 100 healthy volunteers were included in the case-control study. These individuals were consecutively selected from the Malazgirt State Hospital Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic in Mus, Turkey, over the three months from October 2020 to December 2020. The Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Disorders, Clinician Version (SCID-5-CV) was used to confirm the diagnosis according to the DSM-5 criteria. In addition, polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to determine gene polymorphisms from DNA material.ResultsOur findings indicated significant differences in the IL-2 genotype and allele frequencies between SCZ patients and the healthy control group. Specifically, the frequency of the homozygous GG genotype was notably higher in SCZ patients compared to the control group. Conversely, when comparing the IL-2RA genotype and allele frequencies of SCZ patients with the control group, no statistically significant differences were observed between the 2 groups. When compared to individuals with other genotypes, interaction analysis indicated that carriers of the GG/AG (IL-2/IL-2RA) genotype demonstrated a significantly increased risk of SCZ.ConclusionIn light of the analyses, our study indicates that while the IL-2 genotype polymorphism may be considered a risk factor for developing SCZ, the IL-2RA variant was not associated with SCZ among Turkish patients.

Association of the TNF-?, IL-2, and IL-2RB gene variants with susceptibility to psoriasis in a Turkish cohort.

Project description:Aim of the study:The aim of this study was to investigate the role TNF-?, IL-2, and IL-2RB variants in psoriasis (Ps) and to evaluate the association between these variants and clinical features. Material and methods:A total of 74 psoriatic patients and 74 healthy individuals were genotyped for these variants by PCR and/or RFLP. Results:The AA genotype of TNF-? (-308) was significantly more common in the patients (p = 0.013). TNF-? (-238) AA genotype was significantly increased in the patients (p = 0.028), while the GG genotype was decreased in the patient group, compared to the controls (p = 0.016). IL-2 (-330) variant GG and TT genotype was more common in the patients (p = 0.037, p = 0.009, respectively), while IL-2 (-330) GT genotype was increased in the control subjects (p = 0.001). IL-2 (-330) GG genotype frequency was significantly decreased (p = 0.021) and the TT genotype frequency was significantly increased among patients with psoriatic arthritis in comparison with Ps patients (p = 0.014). IL-2RB TC genotype frequency was significantly decreased and TT genotype frequency was significantly increased in the patients with positive family history of Ps compared to those who had a negative family history (p = 0.017, p = 0.014, respectively). Also, IL-2RB CC genotype was significantly increased among the patients with late-onset Ps in comparison with the early onset Ps group (p = 0.009). The frequency of IL-2 (-330) TT genotype was significantly higher in mild Ps patients than moderate-severe patients (p = 0.043). Conclusions:Our data suggest a potential role of these genes as candidate genes for susceptibility to Ps in a Turkish cohort.

Association between interleukin-6/6R gene polymorphisms and coronary artery disease in Russian population: influence of interleukin-6/6R gene polymorphisms on inflammatory markers.

Project description:This study determined the genotype effects of interleukin (IL)-6/IL-6R single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on circulating levels of different cytokines in healthy and coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with different allele frequencies. In the control patients, rs1800795 showed significant differences in IL-18 concentrations between CC and CG and CC and GG genotypes (P=0.003 and 0.004, respectively). Furthermore, circulatory IL-1β was significantly different between GC and GG genotypes from the same SNP (P=0.038). In the diseased patients, significance was determined only for IL-2 (P=0.021) between the C and G homozygote allele carriers of rs1800795. The diseased GC and GG genotype carriers were statistically different for IL-2 (P=0.049) from the rs1800796 and for IL-4 (P=0.049) from the rs2228044. IL-4 was also statistically significant between the GC and CC genotypes from the rs2228043 of the IL-6R gene (P=0.025). The last combination of genotypes in the same gene for the same SNP was statistically significant for IL-10 (P=0.036). According to the logistic regression, only gender (odds ratio [OR] =2.43) and triglycerides (OR =1.98) could be taken as determinants of CAD, while examined SNPs genotypes were not identified as risk factors for CAD. In general, the IL-6 polymorphism genotypes were mainly associated with inflammatory cytokines, while the IL-6R polymorphism genotypes were associated with anti-inflammatory cytokines.

A Common Variant of IL-6R is Associated with Elevated IL-6 Pathway Activity in Alzheimer's Disease Brains.

Project description:The common p.D358A variant (rs2228145) in IL-6R is associated with risk for multiple diseases and with increased levels of soluble IL-6R in the periphery and central nervous system (CNS). Here, we show that the p.D358A allele leads to increased proteolysis of membrane bound IL-6R and demonstrate that IL-6R peptides with A358 are more susceptible to cleavage by ADAM10 and ADAM17. IL-6 responsive genes were identified in primary astrocytes and microglia and an IL-6 gene signature was increased in the CNS of late onset Alzheimer's disease subjects in an IL6R allele dependent manner. We conducted a screen to identify variants associated with the age of onset of Alzheimer's disease in APOE ɛ4 carriers. Across five datasets, p.D358A had a meta P = 3 ×10-4 and an odds ratio = 1.3, 95% confidence interval 1.12 -1.48. Our study suggests that a common coding region variant of the IL-6 receptor results in neuroinflammatory changes that may influence the age of onset of Alzheimer's disease in APOE ɛ4 carriers.

Investigation of CYP2D6 Gene Polymorphisms in Turkish Population.

Project description:Pharmacogenetics is interested in the variable response to drugs depending on the genetic constitution of an individual. Depending on the genetic variation in individuals known as polymorphism; leads to differences in the types of proteins, enzymes or receptors that play a role in the elimination of drugs. Investigation of the correlation between the genotype with phenotype changes in drug metabolism is among the most important topics of today. CYP2D6 gene polymorphisms show clinical efficiency in the use of especially antidepressants, neuroleptics, antiarrhythmic, antihypertensive, beta blocker, and morphine derivatives. Poor metabolizers have been shown to demonstrate adverse drug reactions to these drugs. The plasma concentrations tend to increase inducing side effects after using a standard dose in poor metabolizers. The ratio of poor metabolizers in Caucasians is 5-10%, whereas 3.4-3.8% of the Turkish population. The allele frequencies of CYP2D6 *2, *3, *4 and *10 were found in 35%, 6%, 10% and 26% respectively in 200 healthy controls. The ratio of poor metabolizers in our population revealed as 1%. Genotyping of CYP2D6 is very important for determining a better genotype-phenotype relation.

Lack of Association between the <i>IL6R</i> Gene Asp358Ala Variant (rs2228145), IL-6 Plasma Levels, and Treatment Resistance in Chilean Schizophrenic Patients Treated with Clozapine.

Project description:Alterations in neuroinflammatory processes have been suggested to contribute to the development of Schizophrenia (SZ); one component of the inflammatory system that has been linked to this disorder is interleukin-6 (IL-6). The minor allele of rs2228145, a functional polymorphism in the IL-6 receptor gene, has been associated to elevated IL-6 plasma levels and increased inflammatory activity, making it an interesting candidate to study as a possible factor underlying clinical heterogeneity in SZ. We studied a sample of 100 patients undergoing treatment with clozapine. Their symptoms were quantified by Brief Psychotic Rating Scale; those with the lowest scores ("remitted") were compared with the highest ("clozapine treatment resistant"). We determined allelic frequencies for rs2228145 and IL-6 plasma levels. Our results do not support a role of IL-6 in response to treatment with clozapine. Further studies accounting for potential confounding factors are necessary.

Determination of High-Resolution HLA-DQB1 Suballeles and IL-17 Polymorphisms in Turkish Pediatric Patients.

Project description:Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune enteropathy in the small intestine caused by gluten intolerance of the patients. The most important genetic disease-related factor is human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQ polymorphism. Association between interleukin (IL)-17A expression of CD4 + T cells and various autoimmune diseases has been reported. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism (rs2275913) IL-17A and HLA-DQ polymorphisms in Turkish pediatric celiac patients. Study group included 125 pediatric celiac patients with CD and 100 healthy pediatric controls. Deoxyribonucleic acid was isolated from peripheral blood samples. IL-17A polymorphism (rs2275913) was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment polymorphism method. IL-17A polymorphism and low-/high-resolution HLA-DQ results of patients were evaluated. GG and GA genotype frequencies of IL-17A (rs2275913) polymorphism were significantly higher ( p < 0.05) in the CD patients than the control group. HLA-DQB1*02 and HLA-DQA1*05 alleles were detected in patients, while HLA-DQB1*03 and HLA-DQA1*01 alleles in the control group. Also, when we compared the patient and control groups in terms of HLA-DQ-DR haplotypes, HLA-DQB1*02-DQA1*05-DRB1*03 was found with the relative risk of 42.5 ( p < 0.05). As a result of high-resolution HLA-DQB1 typing, DQB1*02:01 and DQB1*03:02 were at high frequency ( p < 0.05; in 25 patient group). IL-17A (rs2275913) polymorphism genotype frequency was found to be significant in the patient group compared with the control group. The most common HLA-DQB1 suballele was observed as DQB1*02:01.

Associations between cytokine gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis in Turkish population.

Project description:ObjectiveVarious cytokine polymorphisms have been associated with genetic risk factors predisposing to Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) in different populations. To predict the clinical outcome as well as response to therapy in RA, studies aimed to describe genetic markers. The present study aims to search for polymorphisms of 13 cytokine coding genes in the Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkey.MethodsDNAs of 49 patients and 96 healthy bone marrow and kidney donors were isolated from peripheral blood samples. Genotyping was performed using the Heidelberg Cytokine Typing Tray kit. PCR products were visualized on an agarose gel, and results were analyzed using the interpretation scheme provided with the kit. Arlequin 3.5 software was used for statistical analysis.ResultsNo positive association was found between allele frequencies and the disease. However, a negative association was found for the IL-A -889 C allele (p=0.02, OR=0.533, Wald's 95% CI=0.318-0.893). IL-12 -1188 CC (p=0.01, OR=3.667, Wald's 95% CI=1.246-10.786), IL-4 -1098 GT (p=0.02, OR=2.405, Wald's 95% CI=1.129-5.125) genotypes were found positively associated with the RA, while IL-4 -590 CT (p=0.02, OR=0.422, Wald's 95% CI=0.201-0.886) was found negatively associated with the disease. In addition, IL-6 GG haplotype was found positively associated with the RA (p=0.02, OR=1.880, Wald's 95% CI=1.086-3.254).ConclusionOur findings suggest that some polymorphisms of the IL-1A, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-12 could be responsible for the susceptibility or protective to RA in our study population. Multi-centered and large numbers of subjects containing studies that search for cytokine polymorphisms will gather more information regarding the susceptibility to RA of Turkish patients.

FAS/FASL gene polymorphisms in Turkish patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorders.

Project description:IntroductionChronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD) are chronic myeloid hematological disorders, characterized by increased myeloid cell proliferation and fibrosis. Impaired apoptotic mechanisms, increased cell proliferation, uncontrolled hematopoietic cell proliferation and myeloaccumulation may contribute to the pathogenesis of CMPD. The aim of our study was to show the possible role of FAS/FASL gene polymorphisms in CMPD pathogenesis and investigate the association with clinical parameters and susceptibility to disease.Material and methodsWe included 101 (34 polycythemia vera (PV), 23 primary myelofibrosis (PMF), 44 essential thrombocythemia (ET)) CMPD patients diagnosed according to the WHO classification criteria and 95 healthy controls in this study. All the patients and the controls were investigated for FAS/FASL gene expression, allele frequencies and phenotype features, and also FAS mRNA levels were analyzed.ResultsChronic myeloproliferative disorders patients showed increased FAS-670AG + GG genotype distribution compared with the control group (p < 0.05). While the A allele was more frequent in both groups, AG genotype was more frequent in CMPD patients. There was no association between FAS-670A>G gene polymorphism and some clinical parameters such as splenomegaly and thrombosis (p > 0.05). No statistically significant difference in FASL+843C>T genotype or allele frequency was found between groups (p > 0.05). Moreover, no statistically significant difference was detected in FASL and JAK2V617F mutations (p > 0.05). FAS mRNA expression was 1.5-fold reduced in patients compared to healthy subjects.ConclusionsAccording to our findings, FAS/FASL gene expression may contribute to the molecular and immunological pathogenesis of CMPD. More investigations are needed to support these data.
