Association of toll-like receptors polymorphisms with COPD risk in Chinese population.

ABSTRACT: Background: Previous studies have reported that the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are related with the progress of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We aimed to explore the association of TLRs single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and COPD risk. Methods: 170 COPD patients and 181 healthy controls were enrolled in this case-control study. MassARRAY platform was used for genotyping seven tagging SNPs (TLR2: rs3804100, rs4696480, rs3804099; TLR3: rs3775290, rs3775291, rs5743305; TLR9: rs352140) of TLRs. The correlations between the SNPs and COPD risk were determined using logistic regression. Results: We found that the rs3775291 of TLR3 significant decreased the risk of COPD (TT versus CC: non-adjusted OR = 0.329, 95% CI = 0.123-0.879, p = 0.027). In the genetic models analysis, the rs3775291 was associated with a decreased effect of COPD based on the recessive model (TT versus CC/CT: non-adjusted OR = 0.377, 95% CI = 0.144-0.988 p = 0.047). The rs4696480 of TLR2 gene was associated with a decreased risk of COPD after adjustment by age and gender (TA versus AA: adjusted OR = 0.606, 95% CI = 0.376-0.975, p = 0.039). Conclusion: Our study showed that genetic variants in TLRs were associated with risk of COPD. The rs3775291 and rs4696480 may act as a potential biomarker for predicting the risk of COPD in Chinese population.

Project description:BackgroundInflammation may be involved in the pathogenesis of acute aortic dissection (AAD). Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is known to play a critical role in regulating the immune and inflammatory processes. To date, the relationship between genetic variation of TLR4 and AAD is far from clear. The purpose of our study was to illustrate the relevance of TLR4 polymorphisms with the susceptibility to AAD.MethodsA total of 222 AAD patients and 222 controls were enrolled in this study. Frequency distributions of TLR4 polymorphisms (rs10759932 in the promoter and rs11536889 in the 3'-untranslated region) were determined by the KASP method. Clinical parameters were acquired from subjects' medical records, and serum TLR4 levels were collected from our previously published data.ResultsWe found that rs10759932 polymorphism was associated with a reduced risk of AAD in the overall population (CC vs. TT: OR = 0.393, 95%CI = 0.164-0.939, P = 0.036; recessive model: OR = 0.439, 95%CI = 0.196-0.984, P = 0.045) and subgroup analyses stratified by sex. The GC genotype and dominant model of rs11536889 conferred a significantly higher risk of AAD compared with GG genotype in female subjects (GC vs. GG: OR = 3.382, 95%CI = 1.051-10.885, P = 0.041; dominant model: OR = 3.043, 95%CI = 1.041-8.900, P = 0.042). In addition, a significant interaction between the rs11536889 recessive model and dyslipidemia was observed for an increased risk of AAD (P interaction = 0.038, OR = 15.229) after the adjustment for potential clinical covariates. We also used the false-positive report probability (FPRP) analysis to validate the significant results. Furthermore, rs11536889 polymorphism could affect the maximal aortic diameters of AAD (P = 0.037), while AAD patients carrying CC genotype of rs10759932 showed lower serum TLR4 levels than TT genotype carriers (P = 0.043).ConclusionsOur findings provide evidence for the association between TLR4 polymorphisms and AAD susceptibility in a Chinese Han population, which may have some implications for understanding the role of TLR4 in the pathophysiology of AAD.

Project description:BackgroundStroke is a common cerebrovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to explore the association between LIPC single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the risk of stroke in the Chinese population.MethodsThis study recruited 710 stroke patients and 701 healthy controls. The four SNPs (rs690, rs6083, rs3829461, and rs6074) in LIPC were genotyped by the Agena MassARRAY. The correlation between LIPC polymorphisms and stroke risk was measured by odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). In addition, multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis was used to evaluate the impact of SNP-SNP interaction on stroke risk.ResultsOverall analysis showed that rs690 was associated with an increased risk of stroke (T vs. G: OR = 1.19, 95% CI: 1.01-1.40, p = 0.041; additive: OR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.01-1.42, p = 0.036). The stratified analysis revealed that rs690 was associated with an increased risk of stroke in subjects aged ≤ 64 years, male patients, and smokers, and rs6074 was associated with an increased risk of stroke in subjects aged > 64 years, male patients, drinkers, and non-smokers (p < 0.05). The results of the MDR analysis suggested the four-locus model as the most favorable model for assessing the risk of stroke. The analysis of clinical parameters of stroke patients showed that rs690 was correlated with platelet distribution width (PDW) (p = 0.014) and hematocrit levels (p = 0.004), and rs6074 was correlated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level (p = 0.033). Furthermore, bioinformatics analysis results demonstrated that the expression levels of LIPC and its related genes (APOB, CETP, PNPLA2, and LMF1) were significantly different between the control and stroke groups (p < 0.05), and LIPC-related proteins were mainly related to lipid metabolism.ConclusionThis study indicated that rs690 and rs6074 in LIPC were significantly associated with increased risk of stroke in the Chinese population, possibly by regulating the levels of PDW, HCT, and LDL-C.
