Effect of interleukin-6 polymorphism on fracture risk.

چکیده
BACKGROUND Interleukin-6 (IL6) -174C/G polymorphism was suggested to be associated with fracture risk. However, the results were inconsistent. Thus, we did a meta-analysis. METHODS Reported studies were searched from online electronic databases of Pubmed, EMBASE, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). The odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the association between IL6 -174C/G polymorphism and fracture risk. RESULTS Six studies evaluated the association between IL6 -174C/G polymorphism and fracture risk. A significant association was found between IL6 -174C/G polymorphism and fracture risk (OR=1.25; 95% CI, 1.10-1.43; P=0.0008). In the subgroup analysis of gender, we found that women with IL6 -174C/G polymorphism had an increased fracture risk (OR=1.25; 95% CI, 1.07-1.46; P=0.005). In the subgroup analysis of type of fracture, we found that IL6 -174C/G polymorphism was significantly associated with wrist fracture (OR=1.25; 95% CI, 1.07-1.47; P=0.006) and osteoporotic fracture (OR=1.60; 95% CI, 1.12-2.28; P=0.009). However, no significant association was found between IL6 -174C/G polymorphism and hip fracture (OR=1.05; 95% CI, 0.89-1.24; P=0.53) and stress fracture (OR=1.25; 95% CI, 0.97-1.61; P=0.08). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggested that the IL6 -174C/G polymorphism was associated with wrist and osteoporotic fracture risk.

Polymorphism in the interleukin-10 promoter affects both provirus load and the risk of human t lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis
To investigate candidate genes that influence the risk of HTLV-I associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), we analyzed 6 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the interleukin-10 (IL-10) promoter region. METHODS: 280 cases of HAM/TSP patients and 255 HTLV-I seropositive asymptomatic carriers (HCs) from Kagoshima, Japan were studied. All subjects gave written informed conse...

Bachground: Endometriosis is a disease of female genital system, which is defined by the presence of ectopic endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. IL-8 is an autocrine growth factor in the endometrium that contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between -251T/A polymorphism in the IL-8 gene and endometriosis risk in Ira...

Interleukin-6 (IL6) is encoded by the IL6 gene in human and acts as pro-inflammatory cytokine and an anti-inflammatory cytokine. Recent studies established that IL6 substantially contribute in the diagnosed of systemic inflammation for the patients suffering from lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Thereof, this work aimed to investigate the prot...
