81 patients with confirmed HCV-infection and 48 healthy volunteers were examined. In healthy Caucasian participants living in Siberian region significant predominance of C/T genotype in promoter region C-590T of interleukin-4 (IL-4) gene and Q/Q and Ile/Val genotypes in points -50 and -576 of IL-4RA gene that codes alpha-chains of IL-4 receptor were revealed. In patients with HCV-infection predominance of C/T genotype in C-590T region in IL-4 gene (OR = 1.86), R/R genotype in Q-576R region of IL-4RA gene (OR=7.86), and Val/Val genotype in point Ile-50Val (OR = 2.6) of the same gene. Summary predictive coefficient of hepatitis C development in carriers of these genotypes approached to 95%. During analysis of role of allelic polymorphism of IL-4 genes in predisposition to hepatitis C development it is necessary to consider not only presence of allelic variants of promoter regions of the IL-4 genes, but also the polymorphism of genes coding molecules binding with this cytokine on target cells membranes and in its soluble form. 相似文献

Neuroinflammation has been implicated in the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Many studies have suggested that C(-889)
T promoter polymorphism in one of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) encoding gene IL-1A may be associated
with AD pathogenesis. To determine whether the polymorphism contributes to the risk for late-onset AD (LOAD) in Chinese, we
carried out our investigation in 344 sporadic LOAD patients and 224 healthy controls. No statistical significant association
was obtained between IL-1A C(-889) T polymorphism and LOAD and no statistical difference was found between cases and controls
after stratification for apolipoprotein E allele 4 (APOE ε4) status. The results reveal that it is not likely that the IL-1A
C(-889) T polymorphism is involved in AD pathogenesis in the Chinese population. Further studies of the associations between
other IL-1A genetic polymorphisms and AD should be performed in a larger population and biologic functional analysis of IL-1A
gene is required to verify the underlying roles of IL-IA in LOAD. 相似文献

Genetic polymorphism of interleukin-8 (IL-8) is associated with Helicobacter pylori-induced duodenal ulcer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Helicobacter pylori infection almost invariably causes chronic gastritis, but only a proportion of the infected subjects develop peptic ulcers. The local inflammation associated with H. pylori infection is characterized by an increased production of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1-B, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-alpha. Since such cytokine production is often determined by the genetic polymorphism of regions regulating cytokine gene expression, we investigated the relationship between TNF-alpha and IL-8 polymorphisms and the development of duodenal ulcer disease. We also sought a correlation between the promoter polymorphism of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor CD14 and the formation of peptic ulcer, because CD14 plays a crucial role in the initiation of the cytokine cascade. METHODS: Genomic DNA extracted from the peripheral blood of 69 patients with H. pylori-positive duodenal ulcer disease and 47 H. pylori-positive healthy controls was analyzed for TNF-alpha -308 promoter polymorphism by RFLP, and for IL-8 -251 polymorphism by ARMS. Genetic polymorphism within the promoter of the CD14 gene was identified using the LightCycler instrument via melting point analysis. RESULTS: No significant correlation could be revealed between the TNF-alpha and CD14 promoter polymorphisms and the clinical outcome of H. pylori infection. The IL-8 A/T heterozygote mutant variant was detected with a significantly higher frequency (65.22%) among the ulcer patients than among the healthy, H. pylori-positive blood donors (36.17%), while the frequency of the normal allelic genotype (TT) was significantly higher in the control group (44.6% vs 15.9%). CONCLUSION: Analysis of the genetic predisposition to enhanced cytokine production revealed a significant association only for the IL-8 polymorphism. This observation draws attention to the possible importance of IL-8 polymorphism as a genetic predisposing factor in the pathomechanism of H. pylori-induced duodenal ulcer disease, and to the relative protection from duodenal ulcer disease that is associated with the TT genotype. 相似文献

CONTEXT:
CD14 functions as a multifunctional receptor for bacterial cell wall components including endotoxin and lipopolysaccharide and is likely to influence the cytokine profile and subsequent immunoglobulin E production in response to antigen/allergen contact in allergic phenotypes.AIMS:
The present study was to investigate genetic polymorphism in CD14 gene - 159C/T, which may be one of the risk factor for increased prevalence of Chronic Lung Diseases in the Central India.SETTINGS AND DESIGN:
Survivors of Methyl isocyanates toxicity in Bhopal still suffering from various respiratory ailments were examined.MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was performed to determine the polymorphism of C-159T.RESULTS:
The genotype and allelic frequencies were in Hardy-Weinberg’s equilibrium. Prevalence of CC, CT, and TT were 5.5%, 22.2% and 9.25% respectively in asthmatics; 16.6%, 20.3% and 5.5% respectively in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and 5.5%, 14.8% and 1.85 respectively among interstitial lung disorder (ILD) patients; whereas the control cohort with no methyl isocyanate exposure displayed (CC, CT, and TT) cytosine, thymine as 2%, 1.6% and 2% respectively. Increased risk of Asthma among those carrying TT genotype and T allele (odds ratio [OR] =2.61 and 2.02 respectively).CONCLUSION:
COPD risk significantly found among those with CC genotype and C allele (OR = 2.81 and 1.50 respectively), whereas ILD risk found significantly among CT genotype and C allele (OR = 1.75 and 1.40 respectively). Therefore, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) C-159T polymorphism in CD14 gene might be a risk factor for development of CLD in this population. 相似文献10.

T4 DNA ligase-based mismatch detection methods have been proposed as useful strategies for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analyses. However, there is a critical problem for cytosine/thymine (C/T) SNP analyses: guanine:thymine (G:T) mismatch is not distinguished from guanine:cytosine (G:C). Here we employed chemically modified nucleobases, such as oxanine and hypoxanthine, at the end of a ligation fragment and analyzed their influence on the ligation efficiency between G:C and G:T. Successful ligation for G:C and no ligation for G:T were observed when oxanine was employed adjacent to guanine in the ligation junction. This ligation method using an oxanine-containing fragment has strong potentials for the accurate analysis of C/T SNPs. 相似文献

Reversal of phorbol ester-mediated reduction of cloned T lymphocyte cytolysis by interleukin 2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
C G Orosz J W Scott S Gillis J H Finke 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1985,134(1):324-329
During previous studies on the regulation of cloned T lymphocyte function, we observed that murine cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) clones progressively lose the ability to lyse appropriate target cells during prolonged (24 to 48 hr) incubation with the tumor promoter phorbol myristic acetate (PMA). We further observed that the cytolytic function of PMA-treated CTL clones can be restored by incubation with secondary MLC supernatant (2 degrees MLC SN), a potent source of cytokines. We now report our observations on the nature of the cytokine(s) responsible for recovery of CTL activity. Like 2 degrees MLC SN, the lectin-induced SN from a cloned helper T cell and the lectin-induced SN from a T cell hybridoma can restore cytolytic activity to cloned CTL treated with PMA. In contrast, supernatants from L929 cells, WEHI-3 cells, and P388D1 cells fail to restore cytolytic activity to similarly treated cloned CTL. These data suggest that IL 2 and/or gamma-IFN, but not CSF-1, CSF-GM, IL 3, or IL 1, can influence expression of cytolysis by cloned CTL. Furthermore, highly purified IL 2 can restore cytolytic activity, even when cytosine arabinoside is present to inhibit clonal expansion. Our studies indicate that cytolysis is a reversible function of cloned CTL, and that cytolysis may not necessarily represent an end-stage feature of CTL maturation. Our studies further show that IL 2 is both necessary and sufficient for resumption of cytolytic function by "deactivated" CTL. As such, these observations suggest that IL 2 can regulate not only T cell proliferation but also the expression of cytolysis by some cytolytic T cell populations. 相似文献

Amyloid beta and amylin fibrils induce increases in proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine production by THP-1 cells and murine microglia 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Activated microglia surrounding amyloid beta-containing senile plaques synthesize interleukin-1, an inflammatory cytokine that has been postulated to contribute to Alzheimer's disease pathology. Studies have demonstrated that amyloid beta treatment causes increased cytokine release in microglia and related cell cultures. The present work evaluates the specificity of this cellular response by comparing the effects of amyloid beta to that of amylin, another amyloidotic peptide. Both lipopolysaccharide-treated THP-1 monocytes and mouse microglia showed significant increases in mature interleukin-1beta release 48 h following amyloid beta or human amylin treatment, whereas nonfibrillar rat amylin had no effect on interleukin-1beta production by THP-1 cells. Lipopolysaccharide-stimulated THP-1 cells treated with amyloid beta or amylin also showed increased release of the proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6, as well as the chemokines interleukin-8 and macrophage inflammatory protein-1alpha and -1beta. THP-1 cells incubated with fibrillar amyloid beta or amylin in the absence of lipopolysaccharide also showed significant increases of both interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha mRNA. Furthermore, treatment of THP-1 cells with amyloid fibrils resulted in an elevated expression of the immediate-early genes c-fos and junB. These studies provide further evidence that fibrillar amyloid peptides can induce signal transduction pathways that initiate an inflammatory response that is likely to contribute to Alzheimer's disease pathology. 相似文献
