association of fcγriia (cd32) polymorphism with susceptibility to brucellosis

چکیده
background: brucellosis is the major bacterial zoonoses of global importance caused by brucella spps. fcγriia receptor plays a central role in phagocytosis of igg2-opsonized bacteria. fcγriia exhibits allelic polymorphisms with different capacities for binding igg2 and phagocytosis. cells expressing fc γ riia-h131, bind more efficiently to complexes of igg2 than those expressing the fc γ rii a -r131 variant. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of fcγriia polymorphisms with susceptibility to or severity of brucellosis. materials and methods: in this study, we evaluated fcγriia polymorphisms (r/r131, r/h131, h/h131) in 67 patients with brucellosis and 67 age, sex and geographical matched healthy volunteers. fcγriia genotyping was performed by using a sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction (ssp-pcr). results: the comparison of the fcγriia genotypes distribution in patients with brucellosis and controls showed a higher frequency in fcγriia-r/r131 homozygosity in patients than controls (47.8% vs. 28.4%). logistic regression analysis showed that there is a significant correlation between r/r131 genotype and brucellosis (or=2.3, 95%ci=1.3-4.2, p=0.04). although the frequency of the fcγriia-r/r131 was higher in patients with chronic brucellosis compared with acute brucellosis, we did not find any statistically significant differences (53.8% vs. 46.3%, p=0.65). conclusion: the result of this study showed that the homozygous genotype of fcγriia-r/r131 in patients with brucellosis may be associated with susceptibility to brucellosis as a genetic risk factor.

متن کاملAssociation of human Fc gamma RIIa (CD32) polymorphism with susceptibility to and severity of meningococcal disease.
Phagocytosis of bacteria constitutes an important defense mechanism against invasive bacterial diseases. Efficacy of phagocytosis by polymorphonuclear neutrophils is known to vary between allotypes of Fc gamma RIIa (a class of Fc receptors for immunoglobulins that is constitutively expressed on neutrophils). We compared the distribution of Fc gamma RIIa-R131 and Fc gamma RIIa-H131 allotypes in ...

Background: Multiple sclerosis is the most common autoimmune demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a cytokine with both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory activities that implicated in the pathogenesis of some autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to determine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of IL-33, rs1929992, in patient’s gene ...
