BACKGROUND: The effect of immune cells on autoimmune diseases (ADs) complicated by non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) has been widely recognized, but a causal relationship between regulatory T cell (Treg) immune traits and ADs complicated by NHL remains debated. METHODS: Aggregate data for 84 Treg-related immune traits were downloaded from the Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) catalog, and GWAS data for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL; n=315243), follicular lymphoma (FL; n=325831), sjögren's syndrome (SS; n=402090), rheumatoid arthritis (RA; n=276465), dermatopolymyositis (DM; n=311640), psoriasis (n=407876), atopic dermatitis (AD; n=382254), ulcerative colitis (UC; n=411317), crohn's disease(CD; n=411973) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE; n=307587) were downloaded from the FinnGen database. The inverse variance weighting (IVW) method was mainly used to infer any causal association between Treg-related immune traits and DLBCL, FL, SS, DM, RA, Psoriasis, AD, UC, CD and SLE, supplemented by MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode. Moreover, we performed sensitivity analyses to assess the validity of the causal relationships. RESULTS: There was a potential genetic predisposition association identified between CD39+ CD8br AC, CD39+ CD8br % T cell, and the risk of DLBCL (OR=1.51, p<0.001; OR=1.25, p=0.001) (adjusted FDR<0.1). Genetic prediction revealed potential associations between CD25++ CD8br AC, CD28- CD25++ CD8br % T cell, CD39+ CD8br % CD8br, and the risk of FL (OR=1.13, p=0.022; OR=1.28, p=0.042; OR=0.90, p=0.016) (adjusted FDR>0.1). Furthermore, SLE and CD exhibited a genetically predicted potential association with the CD39+ CD8+ Tregs subset. SS and DM were possibly associated with an increase in the quantity of the CD4+ Tregs subset; RA may have reduced the quantity of the CD39+ CD8+ Tregs subset, although no causal relationship was identified. Sensitivity analyses supported the robustness of our findings. CONCLUSIONS: There existed a genetically predicted potential association between the CD39+ CD8+ Tregs subset and the risk of DLBCL, while SLE and CD were genetically predicted to be potentially associated with the CD39+ CD8+ Tregs subset. The CD39+ CD8+ Tregs subset potentially aided in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of SLE or CD complicated by DLBCL.
背景:免疫细胞对伴有非霍奇金淋巴瘤(NHL)的自身免疫疾病(AD)的影响已得到广泛认可,但调节性 T 细胞(Treg)免疫特征与伴有 NHL 的 AD 之间的因果关系仍存在争议。
方法:从全基因组关联研究(GWAS)目录中下载了 84 个与 Treg 相关的免疫特征的汇总数据,并从 FinnGen 数据库中下载了弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤(DLBCL;n=315243)、滤泡性淋巴瘤(FL;n=325831)、干燥综合征(SS;n=402090)、类风湿关节炎(RA;n=276465)、皮肌炎(DM;n=311640)、银屑病(n=407876)、特应性皮炎(AD;n=382254)、溃疡性结肠炎(UC;n=411317)、克罗恩病(CD;n=411973)和系统性红斑狼疮(SLE;n=307587)的 GWAS 数据。主要采用逆方差加权(IVW)法推断 Treg 相关免疫特征与 DLBCL、FL、SS、DM、RA、银屑病、AD、UC、CD 和 SLE 之间的任何因果关联,并通过 MR-Egger、加权中位数、简单模式和加权模式进行补充。此外,我们进行了敏感性分析,以评估因果关系的有效性。
结果:在 CD39+CD8brAC、CD39+CD8br%T 细胞与 DLBCL 风险之间发现了潜在的遗传易感性关联(OR=1.51,p<0.001;OR=1.25,p=0.001)(调整后的 FDR<0.1)。遗传预测显示 CD25++CD8brAC、CD28-CD25++CD8br%T 细胞、CD39+CD8br%CD8br 与 FL 风险之间存在潜在关联(OR=1.13,p=0.022;OR=1.28,p=0.042;OR=0.90,p=0.016)(调整后的 FDR>0.1)。此外,SLE 和 CD 与 CD39+CD8+Tregs 亚群的遗传预测具有潜在的关联。SS 和 DM 可能与 CD4+Tregs 亚群数量增加有关;RA 可能会减少 CD39+CD8+Tregs 亚群的数量,但没有发现因果关系。敏感性分析支持我们研究结果的稳健性。
结论:CD39+CD8+Tregs 亚群与 DLBCL 风险之间存在潜在的遗传预测关联,而 SLE 和 CD 可能与 CD39+CD8+Tregs 亚群存在潜在的遗传预测关联。CD39+CD8+Tregs 亚群可能有助于 SLE 或伴有 DLBCL 的 CD 的临床诊断和治疗。
