BACKGROUND: Leishmaniasis is an infectious disease caused by parasites. A Th1 immune response is necessary in the acute phase to control the pathogen. The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1 is a potent amplifier of inflammation. Our aim is to identify whether the variant rs2234237 A/T (Thr25Ser) is associated with the disease development of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in -infected individuals. The effects of the rs2234237 genotypes on plasma cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, MCP-1 and TNF-α are also investigated. METHODS: 838 patients with CL and 818 healthy controls (HCs) living in the same endemic areas were genotyped by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. Plasma cytokines were assayed in 400 patients with CL and 400 HCs using the BioPlex assay. RESULTS: The genotypes' and alleles' frequencies were similar in both patients with CL (AA = 618, 74%; AT = 202, 24%; TT = 18, 2%) and in HCs (AA = 580, 71%; AT = 220, 27%; TT = 18, 2%). Rs2234237 showed a modest effect on plasma IL-10 that disappeared when correction of the -value was applied. Plasma IL-10 by rs2234237 genotypes were (mean ± SEM; AA = 2.91 pg/mL ± 0.14; AT = 2.35 pg/mL ± 0.12; TT = 3.14 pg/mL ± 0.56; = 0.05). CONCLUSION: The rs2234237 (Thr25Ser) seems to have no influence on the susceptibility or resistance to infections.
背景:利什曼病是一种由寄生虫引起的传染病。急性期需要Th1免疫反应来控制病原体。髓系细胞触发受体(TREM)-1是炎症的强效放大器。我们的目的是确定rs2234237 A/T(Thr25Ser)变体是否与皮肤利什曼病(CL)感染个体的疾病发展相关。还研究了rs2234237基因型对血浆细胞因子白细胞介素(IL)-1β、IL-6、IL-8、IL-10、单核细胞趋化蛋白-1(MCP-1)和肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)的影响。 方法:采用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性方法对838例居住在同一流行地区的CL患者和818例健康对照(HC)进行基因分型。使用BioPlex检测法对400例CL患者和400例HC的血浆细胞因子进行检测。 结果:CL患者(AA = 618,74%;AT = 202,24%;TT = 18,2%)和HC(AA = 580,71%;AT = 220,27%;TT = 18,2%)的基因型和等位基因频率相似。rs2234237对血浆IL-10有适度影响,在校正P值后这种影响消失。rs2234237基因型的血浆IL-10水平为(平均值±标准误;AA = 2.91 pg/mL±0.14;AT = 2.35 pg/mL±0.12;TT = 3.14 pg/mL±0.56;P = 0.05)。 结论:rs2234237(Thr25Ser)似乎对感染的易感性或抵抗力没有影响。
