Association analysis of ILVBL gene polymorphisms with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease in asthma

چکیده
BACKGROUND We previously reported that the ILVBL gene on chromosome 19p13.1 was associated with the risk for aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) and the percent decline of forced expired volume in one second (FEV1) after an oral aspirin challenge test. In this study, we confirmed the association between polymorphisms and haplotypes of the ILVBL gene and the risk for AERD and its phenotype. METHODS We recruited 141 AERD and 995 aspirin-tolerant asthmatic (ATA) subjects. All study subjects underwent an oral aspirin challenge (OAC). Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with minor allele frequencies above 0.05, which were present in the region from 2 kb upstream to 0.5 kb downstream of ILVBL in Asian populations, were selected and genotyped. RESULTS In an allelic association analysis, seven of nine SNPs were significantly associated with the risk for AERD after correction for multiple comparisons. In a codominant model, the five SNPs making up block2 (rs2240299, rs7507755, rs1468198, rs2074261, and rs13301) showed significant associations with the risk for AERD (corrected P = 0.001-0.004, OR = 0.59-0.64). Rs1468198 was also significantly associated with the percent decline in FEV1 in OAC tests after correction for multiple comparisons in the codominant model (corrected P = 0.033), but the other four SNPs in hapblock2 were not. CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of an association between SNPs on ILVBL and AERD. SNPs on ILVBL could be promising genetic markers of this condition.

Effect of diffuse panbronchiolitis critical region 1 polymorphisms on the risk of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease in Korean asthmatics.
BACKGROUND The functional role of the human diffuse panbronchiolitis critical region 1 (DPCR1) gene, located in the major histocompatibility complex class I, has not been widely investigated. However, this gene is a well known genetic marker for diffuse panbronchiolitis, a disease affecting human respiratory bronchioles. In this study we explored the association between polymorphisms in DPCR1 ...
متن کاملAssociation study between TRIM26 polymorphisms and risk of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease.
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) is a clinical syndrome that is characterized by nasal polyposis, general symptoms of asthma and sensitive response to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Although the exact function of tripartite motif-containing 26 (TRIM26) still remains unknown, the gene functions in the immune response....
متن کامل3017- Basic and clinical immunology – 3017: A functional polymorphism in IL-5 receptor alpha may influence asthma severity in patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease
Background Eosinophilic infiltration into the tissues of the airway is a central feature of aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD). Eosinophil activation and survival are profoundly influenced by IL-5 and its receptor, IL-5R. In patients susceptible to allergic disorders, IL5RA polymorphisms have been reported, however, an association with AERD remains unclear. We hypothesise that the p...
متن کامل286 Association Analysis of Member RAS Oncogene Family Gene Polymorphisms with Aspirin Intolerance in Asthmatic Patients
Member RAS oncogene family (RAB1A), a member of the RAS oncogene family, cycles between inactive GDP-bound and active GTP-bound forms regulating vesicle transport in exocytosis. Thus, functional alterations of the RAB1A gene may contribute to aspirin intolerance in asthmatic sufferers. To investigate the relationship between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the RAB1A gene and aspirin-e...
