Interleukin-1 gene polymorphisms and toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis
PURPOSE It has been proposed that cytokine gene polymorphisms can predispose individuals to disease by enhancing inflammatory processes. Considering the relevance of interleukin-1 (IL-1) in the pathogenesis of toxoplasmic retinochoroiditis (TR), we investigated whether IL1A -889 C/T and IL1B +3954C/T promoter polymorphisms are associated with TR in humans. METHODS We performed a cross-section...
متن کاملInterleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene polymorphisms in carotid atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Inflammation plays an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. The gene for the counterinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) is polymorphic, and high frequencies of allele 2 have been found to be associated with other inflammatory diseases. This study examined the association of allele and carrier frequencies of the IL-1ra gene with...
متن کاملRole of interleukin 1 and interleukin 1 receptor antagonist in the mediation of rheumatoid arthritis.
Chronic arthritis is characterised by chronic joint inflammation and concurrent joint erosion and destruction. The inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1 (IL1) has been shown to be a key mediator in the autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Interleukin 1 mediates bone resorption and cartilage destruction, but may not play as dominant a part in joint swelling and inflammation. Interleukin 1...
متن کاملInterleukin-1beta and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene polymorphisms in ankylosing spondylitis.
OBJECTIVE Since ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, which are associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), have been found to be variably associated with the IL-1B and the IL-1RN genes encoding interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra), we have investigated whether these polymorphisms in IL-1B and IL-1RN are also involved in AS. METHODS DNA was isolat...
متن کاملInterleukin-1B and Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist Gene Polymorphisms and Gastric Cancer: A Meta-analysis
Background: Polymorphisms of interleukin-1B (IL1B) and its receptor antagonist (IL1RN) genes have been inconsistently associated with gastric cancer risk. We examined these associations by performing meta-analyses. Materials and Methods: Twenty-five studies testing the association between IL1B and/or IL1RN gene polymorphisms and gastric cancer were examined: 14 studies of IL1B-511 , 14 studies ...
