Abstract
The use of feed additives with antioxidant and immune response modulatory activity could be a useful strategy in suckling calves to reduce morbidity and mortality. This strategy is based on several feed additives tested for these purposes. The aim of the paper is the examination of a commercial feed additive for adult cows for use in calves, with and without nucleotide supplementation. Seventy-five Holstein Friesian male calves were divided in 3 groups, with each calf randomly assigned to a group according to birth order. All calves received 2 L of pooled colostrum within 2 h of birth. The commercial feed supplement group was orally administered with 5 g/head of Decosel (dried brewer's yeast lysate (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), brewer's yeast walls (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), diatoms, spirulina, barley flour, calcium carbonate; Agroteam srl, Torrimpietra, Italy) and the nucleotides + commercial feed supplement group was orally administered with 5 g/head of an additive containing 2.5 g of Decosel and 2.5 g of nucleotides once daily from birth to 25 d. The control group was orally administered 20 mL of fresh water/head once daily. Calves that received the supplement and the nucleotides showed lower rates of protein and metabolizable energy conversion, with longer villi and greater crypt depth in duodenum. Moreover, the commercial feed supplement alone increased antioxidant capacity [2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and ferric-reducing antioxidant power] in plasma some activity of antioxidant liver enzymes, and peripheral blood mononuclear cell viability after in vitro concanavalin A and H2O2 stimuli. Dietary supplementation with a commercial feed supplement containing yeast products (yeast cell walls and hydrolyzed yeast) and microalgae enhanced the redox balance and gut morphology in calves, allowing calves to improve their immune response, increasing resistance to stress. Moreover, these beneficial effects were strongly potentiated when dietary nucleotides were added to the supplement.

Abstract
Background. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a multifunctional cytokine which has been seen to play a relevant role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. We examined the association between a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in IL-10-1082G/A in patients with sepsis in Cali city.Methods. A total of 100 patients with sepsis and 50 control subjects were enrolled in this study. Blood samples were collected from all patients in EDTA containing tubes. IL-10-1082G/A gene promoter polymorphism was analyzed by Sequence Specific Polymerase Chain Reaction (SS-PCR), while levels of serum IL-10 were measured by Enzyme Linked Immunoassay Assay (ELISA) in patients with sepsis and healthy controls.Results. AA homozygous genotype was found more frequently in patients (32%), compared with controls (18%). AA homozygous patients showed an increased risk of developing infection by Gram-negative bacteria (OR = 2,875; 95% CI = 1.162-7.113; p = 0.020), and significantly high plasma levels of IL-10 (OR = 4.800, 95% CI 1.652-13.944; p = 0.002). AA homozygous patients high plasma IL-10 levels have greater risk of developing sepsis (63.6%; OR = 4,894; 95% CI: 1,337-17,909; p = 0.002). In this group, Afro-Colombian individuals were overrepresented among the sepsis patients with high plasma IL-10 levels (OR = 1.661; 95% CI: 1.408-1.959; p = 0.036).Conclusion. Our study concluded that AA genotype of IL-10-1082G/A polymorphism is a risk factor for high IL-10 production and development of sepsis by Gram negative bacteria, especially in Afro-Colombian patients.

Abstract
Critically ill patients with sepsis require a multidisciplinary approach, as this situation implies multiorgan distress, with most of the bodily biochemical and cellular systems being affected by the condition. Moreover, sepsis is characterized by a multitude of biochemical interactions and by dynamic changes of the immune system. At the moment, there is a gap in our understanding of the cellular, genetic, and molecular mechanisms involved in sepsis. One of the systems intensely studied in recent years is the endocannabinoid signaling pathway, as light was shed over a series of important interactions of cannabinoid receptors with biochemical pathways, specifically for sepsis. Furthermore, a series of important implications on inflammation and the immune system that are induced by the activity of cannabinoid receptors stimulated by the delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) have been noticed. One of the most important is their ability to reduce the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory mediators and the modulation of immune mechanisms. Different studies have reported that cannabinoids can reduce oxidative stress at mitochondrial and cellular levels. The aim of this review paper was to present, in detail, the important mechanisms modulated by the endocannabinoid signaling pathway, as well as of the molecular and cellular links it has with sepsis. At the same time, we wish to present the possible implications of cannabinoids in the most important biological pathways involved in sepsis, such as inflammation, redox activity, immune system, and epigenetic expression.

Abstract
The clinical outcomes of infections are highly variable among individuals and are determined by complex host-pathogen interactions. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are powerful tools to unravel common genetic variations that are associated with disease risk and clinical outcomes. However, GWAS has only rarely revealed information on the exact genetic elements and their effects underlying an association because the majority of the hits are within non-coding regions. Some of the variants or the linked polymorphisms are now being discovered to have functional significance, such as regulatory elements in the promoter and enhancer regions or the microRNA binding sites in the 3′untranslated region of the protein-coding genes, which influence transcription, RNA stability, and translation of the protein-coding genes. However, only 3% of the entire transcriptome is protein-coding, signifying that non-coding RNAs represent most of the transcripts. Thus, a large portion of previously identified intergenic GWAS single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is in the non-coding RNAs. The non-coding RNAs form a large-scale regulatory network across the transcriptome, greatly expanding the complexity of gene regulation. Accumulating evidence also suggests that the “non-coding” genome regions actively regulate the highly dynamic three dimensional (3D) chromatin structures, which are critical for genome function. Epigenetic modulation like DNA methylation and histone modifications further affect chromatin accessibility and gene expression adding another layer of complexity to the functional interpretation of genetic variation associated with disease outcomes. We provide an overview of the current information on the influence of variation in these “untranslated” regions of the human genome on infectious diseases. The focus of this review is infectious disease-associated polymorphisms and gene regulatory mechanisms of pathophysiological relevance.

Abstract
Influenza-associated encephalitis and encephalopathy (IAE) is a severe complication of influenza infection with high morbidity and mortality. We present the case of a patient with IL-10RA mutation who developed encephalopathy after influenza infection. A 10-day-old boy developed recurrent fever and anal fistula. Growth failure gradually became apparent. He had been treated with antibiotics and elemental nutrition. However, the patient did not respond to the treatments. At 11 months, he suddenly developed shock with encephalopathy and multiple organ failures. He was then diagnosed with IAE. A cytokine study revealed elevated levels of IL-1 receptor antagonist, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IP-10, eotaxin, G-CSF, MCP-1, and IL-10. These cytokines are normally downregulated by IL-10. Genetic testing revealed a IL-10RA mutation at the 3' end of exon 4 (c.537G→A). These findings might reflect an increased risk of severe IAE in patients with IL-10RA mutation.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Many traditional Chinese medicines (TCM), such as Eucommia ulmoides Oliv., Gynostemma pentaphyllum (Thunb.) Makino, and Curcuma longa L., have been reported to have various immune-modulatory effects. AIM OF THE STUDY To determine the effects of extracts from these three TCM on type 1 T help (Th1)- and Th2-cytokine responses and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained from septic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated PBMCs of healthy controls and septic patients were cultured for 48 hs with or without 0.05/0.1 mg/ml of TCM extract. HLA-DR expression in monocytes was detected using flow cytofluorimetry. The interferon [IFN]-γ, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, interleukin (IL)- 2, IL-5, IL-10, and IL-13 levels in supernatants were measured with a human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Treatment with either 0.05 or 0.1 mg/ml of C. longa L. extract significantly restored the percentage of HLA-DR-positive monocytes, which was decreased by LPS in control and patient groups. Treatment with 0.05 or 0.1 mg/ml E. ulmoides Oliv. and C.longa L. extract decreased IL-10 production from LPS-stimulated PBMCs of controls and patients. In patients with sepsis, C. longa L. extract decreased IL-10 production to a greater degree than did E. ulmoides Oliv extract. Although IFN-γ, TNF-α, or IL-13 productions from LPS-stimulated PBMCs were influenced by E. ulmoides Oliv., G. pentaphyllum (Thunb.) Makino, or C. longa L. in control or sepsis groups in this study, only the influence of IL-10 was consistent in both control and sepsis groups. CONCLUSIONS By enhancing monocyte HLA-DR expression and decreasing IL-10 production, C. longa L. might help restore inflammatory responses in septic patients to eradicate pathogens.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to investigate whether the functional IL10-1082A/G polymorphism exert a role in congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) in children. Also, the serum IL-10 and its association with genotype and renal parenchymal damage in CAKUT were explored. METHODS In the current case-control study, 134 paediatric cases of CAKUT and 382 unrelated controls were included. The genotyping of IL10-1082A/G polymorphism was performed by amplification refractory mutation system-PCR and IL-10 serum level was determined by ELISA. RESULTS Although, the genotype and allelic frequencies of IL10-1082 A/G polymorphism in cases and controls were similar (χ2 = 0.459; P = 0.79 and χ2 = 0.426; P = 0.51, respectively), significant different genotype distribution between patients with or without parenchymal damage/reduction was observed (χ2 = 6.9; P = 0.032). The GG-genotype was more frequent in cases with renal parenchymal damage/reduction compared to patients with preserved parenchyma (22% vs. 9%; OR = 2.987; 95% CI = 0.979-9.468; P = 0.031). On the contrary, the heterozygous genotype was less frequent among cases with parenchymal damage/reduction compared to cases with preserved parenchyma (39% vs. 59%; OR = 0.453; 95% CI = 0.214-0.958; P = 0.024). Additionally, the serum IL-10 was significantly higher in CAKUT patients compared to age-sex-matched controls (median 11.98; IQR: 7.14-31.6 vs. 5.92; IQR: 4.68-14.8; P = 0.0057). Among carriers of GG-genotype significantly higher IL-10 level was detected in cases with parenchymal damage/reduction, than cases with preserved parenchyma (P = 0.028). CONCLUSION Our results suggested that the functional -1082A/G polymorphism in IL10 is associated with risk of renal parenchymal damage/reduction rather than genetic predisposition to CAKUT. Additionally, our study supposes that immunoregulatory cytokine IL-10 might have a significant role in CAKUT.

Abstract
AIMS We investigated the individual and combined effect of functional TNFA -308G/A and IL10 -1082G/A single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their genotypes on the susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Bulgarian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genotyping for -1082A/G IL10 (rs1800896) and -308G/A TNFA (rs1800629) polymorphisms was performed for 154 SLE patients and 224 healthy controls. RESULTS An association between SLE and the rs1800629 polymorphism was established under the allelic model (allele A vs. allele G; odds ratios [OR] = 2.317), the dominant model (GA+AA vs. GG; OR = 3.214), and the overdominant model (GA vs. AA+GG; OR = 3.494). There was no association between rs1800896 and SLE, although a tendency for genetic predisposition to SLE was observed for the IL10 -1082 GG genotype under the recessive genetic model (OR = 1.454). When analyzing the influence of the combined TNFA/IL10 genotypes on SLE occurrence, we found that the carriage of both high cytokine-producing genotypes of two SNPs (TNFA -308AA/GA and IL10 -1082GG) significantly increased the risk of developing SLE with OR of 9.026 (p = 0.006). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the combinatorial complexity of TNFA and IL10 promoter polymorphisms impacts SLE susceptibility. Notably, we found that a TNFA promoter polymorphism is a leading risk factor for SLE susceptibility in a Bulgarian population, while the IL10 -1082 locus appears to act as a significant modifier.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine that has important roles in the periodontal diseases. The IL10-1082, -819, and -592 polymorphisms in the promoter region of IL-10 gene have been associated with various IL-10 expressions. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between these gene polymorphisms with chronic periodontitis in a sample of Iranian populations from Southeast of Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS IL-10 single nucleotide polymorphisms were analyzed in 210 patients with chronic periodontitis (CP) and 100 individuals without CP by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Statistical analysis of data was performed using the Chi-square test. The risk associated with single alleles, genotypes, and haplotypes were calculated by performing a multiple logistic regression analysis to estimate the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). P < 0.05 for statistical significance. RESULTS The prevalences of AG and GG genotypes of IL10-1082 were significantly different between CP and control groups in comparison to AA genotype (OR = 2.671; CI = 1.482-4.815; P = 0.001 for AG vs. AA, OR = 4.151; CI = 2.128-8.097; P < 0.001 for GG vs. AA). In addition, subjects with at least one IL10-1082-G allele were significantly had an increased risk for CP (OR = 2.157; CI = 1.531-3.038; P < 0.001). The distribution of the IL10-819 and IL10-592 genotypes was not different between CP and control subjects (P = 0.109 and P = 0.139, respectively). The combination of different genotypes showed that GCC haplotype was significantly different between groups (OR = 4.379; CI = 1.077-17.807; P = 0.039). CONCLUSION The results demonstrated that IL10-1082 polymorphism was a putative risk factor for chronic periodontitis and associated with increased susceptibility to CP.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the association between some SNPs of the TNF, LTA, IL1B and IL10 genes with cytokine concentrations and clinical course in Colombian septic patients. We conducted a cross-sectional study to genotype 415 septic patients and 205 patients without sepsis for the SNPs -308(G/A) rs1800629 of TNF; +252 (G/A) rs909253 of LTA; -511(A/G) rs16944 and +3953(C/T) rs1143634 of IL1B; and -1082(A/G) rs1800896, -819(C/T) rs1800871 and -592(C/A) rs1800872 of IL10. The association of theses SNPs with the following parameters was evaluated: (1) the presence of sepsis; (2) severity and clinical outcomes; (3) APACHE II and SOFA scores; and (4) procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor, lymphotoxin alpha, interleukin 1 beta and interleukin 10 plasma concentrations. We found an association between the SNP LTA +252 with the development of sepsis [OR 1.29 (1.00-1.68)]; the SNP IL10 -1082 with sepsis severity [OR 0.53 (0.29-0.97)]; the TNF -308 with mortality [OR 0.33 (0.12-0.95)]; and the IL10 -592 and IL10 -1082 with admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) [OR 3.36 (1.57-7.18)] and [OR 0.18 (0.04-0.86)], respectively. None of the SNPs were associated with cytokine levels, procalcitonin and C-reactive protein serum concentrations, nor with APACHE II and SOFA scores. Our results suggest that these genetic variants play an important role in the development of sepsis and its clinical course.

Abstract
Fungi cause more than a billion skin infections, more than 100 million mucosal infections, 10 million serious allergies and more than a million deaths each year. Global mortality owing to fungal infections is greater than for malaria and breast cancer and is equivalent to that owing to tuberculosis (TB) and HIV. These statistics evidence fungal infections as a major threat to human health and a major burden to healthcare budgets worldwide. Those patients who are at greatest risk of life-threatening fungal infections include those who have weakened immunity or have suffered trauma or other predisposing infections such as HIV. To address these global threats to human health, more research is urgently needed to understand the immunopathology of fungal disease and human disease susceptibility in order to augment the advances being made in fungal diagnostics and drug development. Here, we highlight some recent advances in basic research in medical mycology and fungal immunology that are beginning to inform clinical decisions and options for personalized medicine, vaccine development and adjunct immunotherapies.This article is part of the themed issue 'Tackling emerging fungal threats to animal health, food security and ecosystem resilience'.

Abstract
Sepsis is an injurious systemic host response to infection, which can often lead to septic shock and death. Recently, the immune-pathogenesis and genomics of sepsis have become a research topic focusing on the establishment of diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. As yet, none have been identified as having the necessary specificity to be used independently of other factors in this respect. However the accumulation of current evidence regarding genetic variations, especially the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of cytokines and other innate immunity determinants, partially explains the susceptibility and individual differences of patients with regard to the evolution of sepsis. This article outlines the role of genetic variation of some serum proteins which have the potential to be used as biomarker values in evaluating sepsis susceptibility and the progression of the condition.

Association of IL-10 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis in Egyptian children and adolescents: a case-control study. Ital J Pediatr 2017; 43:9.

Abstract
Background Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic arthritis in children worldwide. Among anti-inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a key immunosuppressive cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of JIA. To date, only a few studies concerned the association of interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms with JIA. In this study, we aimed to investigate 3 cytokine single-nucleotide polymorphisms situated at positions -1082(G/A), −819(C/T), and −592(C/A) in the promoter region of the IL-10 gene to determine whether this polymorphism could be a marker of susceptibility to JIA in Egyptian children and adolescents. We also measured the serum level of IL-10 to assess its relation to such polymorphism. Methods This was a case-control study included 100 patients diagnosed with JIA, and matched with age, gender, ethnicity 100 healthy control subjects. Interleukin-10 −1082(G/A), −819(C/T), and −592(C/A) polymorphisms were genotyped by amplification refractory mutation system- polymerase chain reaction (ARMS)-PCR methodology, while the serum IL10 levels were measured by ELISA method. Results Compared to the controls subjects, the frequency of IL-10- AA genotype and A allele at the –1082 position were overrepresented in patients with JIA (OR = 2.7; 95% CI: 1.1–6.4 for the AA genotype; P <0.05 and OR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.03–2.3 for the A allele; P <0.05 respectively). On the other hand, no significant differences were found between the 2 groups in the genotype or allele frequencies for the –819 and –592 positions. Of note, we found a significant positive association between the IL-10 (-1082) AA genotype and susceptibility to polyarticular JIA (OR: 4.3; 95% CI: 1.5–12.7; P <0.01). We observed that patients with the IL-10 (-1082) AA genotype had significantly lower serum IL-10 levels (2.3 ± 0.9 pg/ml) compared to those with AG genotype (7.6 ± 1.5 pg/ml) and GG genotype (9.5 ± 1.2 pg/ml); P < 0.01, respectively. Conclusion We demonstrate for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that the presence of an A allele or AA gene variant at the –1082 position of the promoter region of the interleukin-10 gene may constitute risk factors for developing JIA in Egyptian children and adolescents. Moreover, we observed a significant positive association between the IL10 –1082 AA gene variant and susceptibility to polyarticular JIA.

Abstract
Functional genetic polymorphisms that altered gene expression of cytokines are candidate genetic factors that could modulate the development and progression of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). IL-12B gene encoded the IL-12p40 subunit, which is included in the pro-inflammatory heterodimeric cytokines IL-12p70 and IL-23. IL-10 is an important Treg cytokine suppressing inflammatory cytokine production and autoimmunity. This study was designed to compare -1082A/GIL-10 and +1188A/C3'UTRIL-12B genotype distribution in 130 patients with HT to a group of 157 healthy controls in attempts to determine an association with HT development. Genotyping for the 3'UTRA/C IL-12B polymorphism was performed using RFLP-PCR and genotyping for -1082A/G IL-10 by ARMS-PCR assay. Patients with HT were divided into euthyroid and hypothyroid stages. There were no significant differences in the genotype and allele frequencies of the IL-12B polymorphism between patients with HT and controls. We observed higher euthyroid HT risk for individuals with CC genotype, unlike to develop hypothyroidism with OR = 1.68. Regarding the polymorphism rs1800896, it was shown the significantly higher frequency of homozygous genotype GG in cases vs controls (OR = 2.19; P = 0.024). Moreover, the combination of genotype AA of 3'UTRIL-12B with GG of -1082IL-10 was associated with a threefold increasing risk (OR = 3.188; P = 0.022) of developing HT compared to individuals with the presence of 3'UTR allele C (AC+CC) simultaneously with AA genotype of -1082IL-10. Our data raise the possibility that the combined effect of polymorphisms from proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines may be more decisive to HT development.

Abstract
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Cytokines are involved in the pathogenesis of CAP. To date, only a few studies concerned the association of interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene polymorphisms with CAP.In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the -1082(G/A) polymorphism in the promoter region of the IL-10 gene is involved in susceptibility to and the outcome of CAP, and we also measured the serum level of IL-10 to assess its relation to such polymorphism.This was a case-control study included 100 patients with CAP, and matched with age, gender, and ethnicity of 100 healthy control children. IL-10 -1082(G/A) gene polymorphism was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism, while the serum IL-10 levels were measured by ELISA method.Compared to the controls subjects, the frequencies of the IL-10 -1082 AA genotype and A allele were observed to be overrepresented in patients with CAP (51%; odds ratio [OR] = 2.8; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.5-5.3 for the AA genotype; P < 0.01) and (70%; OR: 1.95; 95% CI: 1.27-3.00 for the A allele; P < 0.01, respectively). We found that patients with the GG genotype had significantly higher serum IL-10 levels (46.7 ± 9.5 pg/mL) compared to those with AG genotype (21.8 ± 4.5 pg/mL) and AA genotype (11.5 ± 3.3 pg/mL); P < 0.01, respectively. Our data revealed a significant positive association between the -1082 GG genotype and susceptibility to severe sepsis, acute respiratory failure, and hospital mortality (OR: 3.8; 95% CI: 1.3-11.2; P < 0.01).We demonstrate for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, that IL-10 -1082 (G/A) gene polymorphism may contribute to susceptibility to CAP in Egyptian children. Moreover, we observed that the presence of a G allele or GG genotype at the -1082 position of the promoter region of the IL-10 gene constitute risk factors for developing severe sepsis, acute respiratory failure, and hospital mortality among patients with CAP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The susceptibility to adverse outcome from critical injury (occurrence of sepsis, septic shock, organ dysfunction/failure, and mortality) varies dramatically due to different degrees of inflammatory response. We assessed the relationship of the genotype distribution of various cytokine gene polymorphisms (CGP) with regard to the development of sepsis, organ dysfunction or mortality in severely injured patients. METHOD Observational, hospital-based cohort study of 114 severely injured North Indian patients from New Delhi admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) of Trauma Centre, AIIMS. Patients were monitored from day first to discharge or death, measuring SOFA score, sepsis and septic shock occurrences up to one month. We have analyzed 13 cytokine genes, including the SNPs of structural and regulatory regions at 22 positions. RESULTS Sequence-specific primer based PCR indicated that eight polymorphic loci IL-1α /-889, IL-1β/-511, IL-1R (pstI 1970), TGF-β/ code 10, TNF-α/-308, TNF-α/-238, IL-6/+565 and IL-10/-1082, out of 22 SNPs are significantly associated with sepsis morbidity and outcome. Theses SNPs might be used as risk determinants of the outcome. Patients with IL-10 (-1082A/A) genotypes were found significantly higher in post traumatic sepsis patients and had a significantly higher risk to developed sepsis complication (p < 0.05, OR = 0.86, C.I = 0.08-8.8).In case of TNF-α (-308) position, GA and GG genotype patients have a significantly lower risk of poor outcome (p < 0.05, OR = 0.25, C.I = 0.01-1.3) and (p < 0.05, OR = 0.22, C.I = 0.01-0.5) in comparison to AA genotype. In this study, two polymorphisms (IL-1β (-511) and IL-1R) were significantly associated with the development of MOF and mortality, where as IL-1α (-889) polymorphism associated with susceptibility for sepsis. The distribution of haplotypes of TGF-β and IL-6 were also associated with sepsis susceptibility and outcome. CONCLUSION In conclusion, we have found that the alternations in the genotype and allele frequency of IL-1β (-511C/T), TNF-α (-308 G/A), TNF-α (-238 G/A) and IL-10 (-1082 G/A) genes are associated with an higher risk of sepsis development in trauma patients and outcomes.

Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that cytokine gene polymorphisms of Indigenous Australians were predominantly associated with strong pro-inflammatory responses. We tested the hypothesis that cells of donors with genetic profiles of inflammatory cytokine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) similar to Indigenous Australians produce higher pro-inflammatory responses. PBMCs from 14 donors with genetic profiles for a high risk of strong pro-inflammatory responses and 14 with low-risk profiles were stimulated with endotoxin and effects of gender, IFN-γ, cigarette smoke extract (CSE) and testosterone on cytokine responses analysed. Cytokines were calculated from standard curves (Luminex 2.3 software). No significant differences were associated with SNP profile alone. Lower pro-inflammatory responses were observed for cells from males with low- or high-risk profiles. For cells from females with high-risk profiles, anti-inflammatory IL-10 responses were significantly reduced. There was no effect of testosterone levels on responses from males. For females, results from IFN-γ-treated cells showed positive correlations between testosterone levels and IL-1β responses to endotoxin for both risk groups and TNF-α for the high-risk group. If interactions observed among CSE, IFN-γ, genetic background and testosterone reflect those in vivo, these might contribute to increased incidences of hospitalisations for infectious diseases among Indigenous women.

Abstract
Host genetic variations may influence a changing profile of biochemical markers and outcome in patients with trauma/injury. The objective of this study was to assess clinical associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes of cytokines in critically ill patients. A total of 430 patients were genotyped for SNPs in the genes of pro- (IL1B, IL6, IL8) and anti-inflammatory (IL4, IL10, IL13) cytokines. The main end-points were sepsis, mortality and adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We evaluated the dynamic levels of bilirubin, blood urea nitrogen, creatine kinase, creatinine and lactate dehydrogenase in five points of measurements (between 1 and 14 days after admission) and correlated them with SNPs. High-producing alleles of proinflammatory cytokines protected patients against sepsis (IL1B -511A and IL8 -251A) and mortality (IL1B -511A). High-producing alleles of anti-inflammatory cytokines IL4 -589T and IL13 431A (144Gln) were less frequent in ARDS patients. The carriers of IL6 -174C/C genotypes were prone to the increased levels of biochemical markers and acute kidney and liver insufficiency. Genotype-dependent differences in the levels of biochemical indicators gradually increased to a maximal value on the 14th day after admission. These findings suggest that genetic variability in pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines may contribute to different clinical phenotypes in patients at high risk of critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies about the association of the interleukin-10 (IL-10) polymorphisms with the progression of liver fibrosis or cirrhosis susceptibility in chronic hepatitis B/C (CHB/C) disease were inconsistent. The aim of this meta-analysis was to derive a more precise estimation of the association. METHODS We searched Medline, PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science electronic databases using the following key words: liver fibrosis/cirrhosis, IL10, and polymorphism. Statistical analyses were performed by STATA11.0 software, with odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS 12 independent studies in relation to IL10-1082A/G, -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphisms were included in our study, which consisted of 197 moderate/severe liver fibrosis cases and 426 mild fibrosis controls as well as 536 liver cirrhosis cases and 881 non-cirrhosis controls. The results indicated that a significantly decreased risk of moderate/severe fibrosis was associated with the GCC haplotype (IL10-1082G, -819C and -592C) in the overall CHB/C patients (OR: 0.547, 95% CI: 0.317-0.946, P=0.031). We did not detect any significant association between these polymorphisms and liver cirrhosis susceptibility in the total population or a subgroup of Asians. However, subgroup analyses by different aetiologies showed that the -819T heterozygotes (TC) were associated with a significantly increased risk of HCV-related liver cirrhosis in the Japanese population (OR: 1.254, 95% CI: 1.033-1.522, P=0.022). CONCLUSIONS The putative high IL-10 production haplotype GCC is more likely to be associated with less severe liver fibrosis in CHB/C patients. Additionally, the IL10-819T allele may be a susceptible factor for HCV-related liver cirrhosis in the Japanese population.

Abstract
The role of functional polymorphism within IL10 (rs1800896) in colorectal cancer (CRC) still remains elusive. The aim of present study was to investigate the significance of -1082A/G polymorphism in IL10 on CRC risk, progression, and overall survival in a cohort of Bulgarian patients. Also, a functional role of this polymorphism on systemic and local level of IL10 mRNA quantity and serum IL-10 level was explored. A group of 119 patients with sporadic CRC and 154 age-sex-matched controls were genotyped by allele-specific PCR. The quantification of mRNA and serum IL-10 levels was performed by real-time PCR and ELISA assays, respectively. The genotype and allelic frequency among cases and controls was similar. However, we observed significant elevation of G-allele and GG-genotype frequencies among advanced CRC. G-allele was overrepresented in advanced CRC patients (49 %) compared to early CRC (35 %) with OR = 1.77; 95%CI 1.018 ÷ 3.083; P = 0.031. A significant upregulated expression of IL10 mRNA was observed among AG/GG-genotypes in tumor tissue compared to homozygous AA-genotype (RQ value 68.3 vs. 6.68; P = 0.0062). Also, GG-genotype of -1082A/G polymorphism in IL10 was positively associated with higher serum IL-10 among early CRC patients and controls, in contrast to advanced cases. Although, investigated polymorphism in IL10 has no significant impact of overall survival among Bulgarian CRC patients, we found a significant relationship of high pre-operative serum level of IL-10 with poor survival of CRC (P = 0.023). Our findings indicate a significant impact of -1082A/G polymorphism of IL10 on CRC progression, rather than genetic predisposition and prognosis of CRC.

Abstract
SUMMARYGenetic association studies of the cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) and sepsis have provided inconsistent results. This work attempts to further quantitatively assess the association of three widely evaluated polymorphisms of IL-10 (−592C/A, −819C/T, −1082A/G) with sepsis susceptibility through a meta-analysis. A search of Pubmed, Web of Science and EMBASE databases was performed. Overall, the three polymorphisms have no strong association with sepsis risk. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity showed there was association between sepsis susceptibility with −592C/A in Caucasians (A vs. C: OR 0·78, 95% CI 0·62–1·00, P = 0·05; AA + CA vs. CC: OR 0·75, 95% CI 0·56–1·00, P = 0·05), and with −1082A/G in Asians (G vs. A: OR 1·41, 95% CI 1·04–1·91, P = 0·03; GG + AG vs. AA: OR 2·11, 95% CI 1·07–4·16, P = 0·03). This meta-analysis suggests that −592C/A and −1082A/G polymorphisms are associated with sepsis susceptibility in Caucasian, and Asian populations, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infections are frequent complications of hospitalization, particularly in the elderly. Pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines are essential components of the host response to pathogens and polymorphisms in their genes may contribute to inter-individual variations of the inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to investigate whether cytokine polymorphisms, separately or in combination, could be determining factors in the development of repeated nosocomial infections in elderly hospitalized patients. METHODS Tumor necrosis factor-α (-308) and (-238), interleukin-6 (-174) and (-6331), interleukin-10 (-1082) and (-592) polymorphisms were genotyped by PCR and hybridization with fluorescent-labeled probes in 245 hospitalized elderly patients (mean age 85.2 years; SD 6) and compared with those in 145 healthy adults. RESULTS The distribution of genotypes did not differ between elderly patients and control subjects. The presence of the interleukin-10 A(592) or A(1082) allele was more frequent individually and after adjustment for multiple comparisons in patients who suffered from several infections (p = 0.012, odds ratio = 5.3; 95 % confidence interval = 1.2-23.1). CONCLUSION Our data support a determinant role for interleukin-10 (-1082) polymorphism in the development of nosocomial infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of pneumonia and meningitis. Several genetic polymorphisms have been described to explain differences in susceptibility and severity of encapsulated pathogen-related diseases. Among them, a functional FCGR2A polymorphism leading to amino acid change of histidine (H) to arginine (R) at position 131 appears to be a major candidate in adult invasive pneumococcal diseases (IPDs). However, previous reports need confirmation in a large, well-defined population. METHODS This prospective genetic association study was carried out in a 24-bed medical ICU of a tertiary teaching hospital over 7 years. DNA from all white patients with IPD (pneumonia or meningitis) was genotyped for the FcγRIIa-R/H131 polymorphism. RESULTS A total of 243 patients with IPD were enrolled; 202 (82%) had pneumonia, and 55 (22%) had meningitis. Mean age was 61 years, and mean Simplified Acute Physiology Score II was 50.4. One-half of the patients had bacteremia, and 84% of the cohort received mechanical ventilation. The hospital mortality rate was 31%. In the IPD group, the distribution of the FcγRIIa-R/H131 genotypes (H/H, 25%; H/R, 53%; R/R, 22%) was comparable with that in the white control group. Comparison of the FcγRIIa-R/R131 and the FcγRIIa-R/H131 + FcγRIIa-H/H131 groups did not demonstrate any difference for age, Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, origin of sepsis, and other comorbid conditions. However, the variant FcγRIIa-R/R131 genotype was independently associated with decreased hospital mortality (OR, 0.251; 95% CI, 0.098-0.645; P = .004). CONCLUSIONS In a well-defined population of patients with IPD, the frequency of the variant FcγRIIa-R131 does not differ from that of other critically ill patients. However, the FcγRIIa-R/R131 genotype was independently associated with increased survival, regardless of site of infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery modulates pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine balance involving plasma tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) together with urinary transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFβ1), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL1ra) and tumour necrosis factor soluble receptor-2 (TNFsr2). Effects on post-operative renal function are unclear. We investigated if following cardiac surgery there is a relationship between cytokine (a) phenotype and renal outcome; (b) genotype and phenotype and (c) genotype and renal outcome. Since angiotensin-2 (AG2), modulates TGFβ1 production, we determined whether angiotensin converting enzyme insertion/deletion (ACE I/D) genotype affects urinary TGFβ1 phenotype as well as renal outcome. METHODS In 408 elective cardiac surgery patients we measured pre- and 24 h post-operative urinary TGFβ-1, IL1ra and TNFsr2 and pre- and 2 h post-operative plasma TNFα and IL-10. Post-operative responses were compared for each cytokine in patients grouped according to presence or absence of renal dysfunction defined as a drop from baseline eGFR of greater than 25% (as calculated by the method of modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD)) occurring (1) within the first 24 and (2) 48 postoperative hours (early renal dysfunction), (3) on the fifth postoperative day (late renal dysfunction) or (4) at any time throughout the 5 day postoperative period (early and late combined). Patient genotype was determined for TNF/G-308A, TGFβ1-509 C/T, IL10/G-1082A and ACE I/D. RESULTS Post-operative plasma IL-10 and urinary TGFβ1 responses were significantly higher in patients who developed early renal dysfunction. IL1ra and TNFsr2 responses were significantly lower 24h post-operatively in patients who developed late renal dysfunction. Genotype did not alter cytokine phenotype or outcome. CONCLUSIONS/INFERENCES: Cytokine profiling may help predict early and late renal dysfunction. Genotypes studied did not alter phenotype or outcome.

Abstract
No clear consensus has been reached regarding the association of IL-10 polymorphisms and periodontitis. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of case-control studies and a systemic review in an effort to systematically summarize the existing knowledge. Studies were identified by searching PubMed database until December 2011. IL-10 -1082 (-1087) A>G, -819 (-824) C>T and -592 (-597) C>A polymorphisms were included in the present meta-analysis. We calculated the specific odds ratios along with their 95 % confidence intervals to compare the distribution of alleles and genotypes between cases and controls. An additive "per-allele" model (major allele vs. minor allele) was performed, and dominant and recessive models were also considered. The random-effects model was applied for the analysis. Cumulative analysis was also performed. Heterogeneity and publication bias were assessed. Nine case-control studies involving 841 periodontitis cases (644 chronic periodontitis and 197 aggressive periodontitis cases) and 748 controls were included. We found statistically significant association of IL-10 -819 (-824) C>T and IL-10 -592 (-597) C>A polymorphisms in Caucasians. The IL-10 -819 (-824) T and -592 (-597) A alleles may confer a relative increase in the risk for chronic periodontitis in Caucasians. Future studies may be important to reinforce these findings.

Abstract
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a multifactorial disease with a complex pathogenesis where lifestyle, individual genetic background and environmental risk factors are involved. Altered inflammatory responses are implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and a premature AMI of parents is associated with an increased risk of the disease in their offspring (Offs). However, the genetic background of familiarity for AMI is still largely unknown. To understand which genes may predispose to increased risk of cardiovascular disease gene polymorphism of immune regulatory genes, and clinical events from the Offs of parents with an early AMI were investigated. Genetics data from Offs were compared with those obtained from healthy subjects and an independent cohort of patients with clinical sporadic AMI. Rates of clinical events during a 24 years follow up from Offs and from an independent Italian population survey were also evaluated. Results This study showed that a genetic signature consisting of the concomitant presence of the CC genotype of VEGF, the A allele of IL-10 and the A allele of IFN-γ was indeed present in the Offs population. In fact, the above genetic markers were more frequent in unaffected Offs (46.4%) and patients with sporadic AMI (31.8%) than in the CTR (17.3%) and the differences were highly statistically significant (Offs vs CTR: p = 0.0001, OR = 4.129; AMI vs CTR: p = 0.0001, OR = 2.224). During the 24-year follow-up, Offs with a positive familiarity in spite of a relatively young age showed an increased prevalence of diabetes, ischemic heart disease and stroke. These findings reinforce the notion that subjects with a familial history of AMI are at risk of an accelerated aging of cardiovascular system resulting in cardiovascular events. Conclusion Our data suggest that selected genes with immune regulatory functions are part of the complex genetic background contributing to familiarity for cardiovascular diseases. This inflammatory genetic profile, along with classical cardiovascular risk factors, may be used for better defining individual risk of AMI in unaffected subjects.

Abstract
Infections with Candida spp. have different manifestations in humans, ranging from mucosal to bloodstream and deep-seated disseminated infections. Immunocompromised patients have increased susceptibility to these types of infections, due to reduced capacity to elicit effective innate or adaptive immunity. In addition, rare and common genetic variants in the human genome have been identified that influence susceptibility to Candida infections. Genetic determinants of primary immunodeficiencies leading to chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis have been reported, and polymorphisms in genes that are known to be involved in anti-Candida host defense are associated with increased susceptibility to systemic infection. These findings have greatly increased our understanding of pathways important for anti-Candida defense in humans, and patterns of prevalence of Candida infections. In addition, these pathways may offer novel therapeutic targets for treatment. This review provides an overview of the current insights in genetic susceptibility to Candida infections and their consequences for the immune response against Candida.

Abstract
Genetic variations, in part, determine individual susceptibility to sepsis and pneumonia. Advances in genetic sequence analysis as well as high throughput platform analysis of gene expression has allowed for a better understanding of immunopathogenesis during sepsis. Differences in genes can also modulate immune and inflammatory response during sepsis thereby translating to differences in clinical outcomes. An increasing number of candidate genes have been implicated to play a role in sepsis susceptibility, most of which are controversial with few exceptions. This does not refute the significance of genetic polymorphisms in sepsis, but rather highlights the difficulties and pitfalls related to genetic association studies. These difficulties include differences in study design such as heterogeneous patient cohorts and differences in pathogenic organisms, linkage disequilibrium, and lack of power for detailed haplotype analysis or examination of gene-gene interactions. There is extensive diversity in the pathways of inflammation and immune response during sepsis making it even harder to prove the functional and clinical significance of one single genetic polymorphism which could be easily masqueraded or compensated by other upstream or downstream events of the pathway involved. The majority of studies have analysed candidate genes in isolation from other possible polymorphisms. It is likely that susceptibility to sepsis is the result of polymorphisms from multiple genes rather than one single mutation. Future studies should aim for multi-centered collaborative approach looking at genome wide association or gene profiling to provide a more complete appraisal of the key genetic players in determining genetic susceptibility to sepsis. This review paper will summarise the prominent candidate gene polymorphisms with known functional changes or those with haplotype data. In addition, a summary of the expanding research in the field of epigenetics and post-sepsis immunosuppression will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Candida bloodstream infections cause significant morbidity and mortality among hospitalized patients. Although clinical and microbiological factors affecting prognosis have been identified, the impact of genetic variation in the innate immune responses mediated by cytokines on outcomes of infection remains to be studied. METHODS A cohort of 338 candidemia patients and 351 noninfected controls were genotyped for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 6 cytokine genes (IFNG, IL10, IL12B, IL18, IL1β, IL8) and 1 cytokine receptor gene (IL12RB1). The association of SNPs with both candidemia susceptibility and outcome were assessed. Concentrations of pro- and antiinflammatory cytokines were measured in in vitro peripheral blood mononuclear cell stimulation assays and in serum from infected patients. RESULTS None of the cytokine SNPs studied were associated with susceptibility to candidemia. Persistent fungemia occurred in 13% of cases. In the multivariable model, persistent candidemia was significantly associated with (odds ratio [95% confidence interval]): total parenteral nutrition (2.79 [1.26-6.17]), dialysis dependence (3.76 [1.46-8.64]), and the SNPs IL10 rs1800896 (3.45 [1.33-8.93]) and IL12B rs41292470 (5.36 [1.51-19.0]). In vitro production capacity of interleukin-10 and interferon-γ was influenced by these polymorphisms, and significantly lower proinflammatory cytokine concentrations were measured in serum from patients with persistent fungemia. CONCLUSIONS Polymorphisms in IL10 and IL12B that result in low production of proinflammatory cytokines are associated with persistent fungemia in candidemia patients. This provides insights for future targeted management strategies for patients with Candida bloodstream infections.

Abstract
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) production is under tight genetic control in populations living in affluent environments. However, little is known about the role of IL10 genetics on cytokine production in populations living in environments with high infectious pressure. We have previously reported that, in a rural Ghanaian population, the most common IL10 haplotype associates with a pro-inflammatory response. Here, we aim to replicate these findings in an independent sample of the same population 2 years later. IL-10 and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) protein concentrations were determined in whole-blood samples ex vivo stimulated with lipopolysaccharide and zymosan in 2006 (n=615) and 2008 (n=647). The association between IL10 single nucleotide polymorphisms and Z-scores of IL-10 and TNF-α levels was analysed in each population subset. The most common IL10 haplotype was associated with a significantly lower IL-10 production and nonsignificantly increased TNF-α levels. The correlation between repeated cytokine assays, based on 111 individuals with measurements in both 2006 and 2008, was r=0.53 (P<0.001) for IL-10 and r=0.36 (P<0.001) for TNF-α. The replication of our previously found effect of variation in the IL10 gene on IL-10 production and the correlation between repeated cytokine stimulation assays provide evidence that IL10 genetics have an important role in regulating the host response under high infectious pressure.

Abstract
The number of genetic polymorphisms shown to play a role in sepsis continues to increase. At the same time, platforms for genetic sequencing and expression analysis are being refined, allowing unprecedented data generation. International databases may soon facilitate synchrony of genotypic and phenotypic data using enormous numbers of septic patients. If this occurs, 2 strategies for investigating polymorphisms in sepsis are likely to gain favor. In the first strategy, sepsis will continue to be viewed as a single entity. High-throughput genetic techniques will be used to evaluate numerous polymorphisms, each with fractional disease responsibility. Nongenetic variables, such as pathogen characteristics, underlying host medical conditions, and type and timing of resuscitation, will be considered cofactors. Using this approach, principal components that predict susceptibility to and outcomes during sepsis are likely to be identified. In the second strategy, sepsis will be divided into subtypes based on the concentration of specific variables. Categories will be based on features like the presence or absence of specific polymorphisms, gram-positive or gram-negative staining of causative organisms, age and comorbid conditions of the host, recent administration of chemotherapeutic agents, and hospital setting (ie, community vs teaching institution). Each category will be used to create homogenous sepsis subgroups for detailed evaluation. This approach will increase the odds of finding single dominant factors responsible for predilection and/or outcome within well-defined groups among those with sepsis. Several elements will be essential for the success of both these strategies. Firstly, databases that are extremely detailed will have to be generated. Secondly, better clinical information technology systems will be needed to facilitate large-scale phenotyping. Thirdly, standardization of protocols will need to take place to ensure uniformity of data sets. If the rapid advances in technology and informatics continue, they may catalyze paradigm shifts with regard to how clinicians address sepsis. Clinicians may change their focus from aggressive uniform treatment strategies to rapid stratification and subcategorization, with subsequent aggressive targeted therapeutic interventions. Advances in technology have the potential to change our primary goal in sepsis from rapid treatment to prevention for those most at risk. The cost savings to the US health care systems from such changes could be substantial.

Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic hepatitis C progression is commonly attributed to the continuous activation of the immune response with an increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, leading to fibrosis and ultimately to cirrhosis. On the contrary, anti-inflammatory cytokines, mainly interleukin (IL)-10 have a modulatory effect on hepatic fibrogenesis. The association between individual polymorphisms within cytokine genes and hepatitis C outcome is often weak and non-informative. Interestingly, it has been demonstrated that a combination of specific genotypes may be a more significant and powerful approach for predicting disease risk. AIM This study is aimed at investigating the combined effect of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in IL-18 (-607C/A, -137G/C), interferon (IFN)-γ (+874T/A) and IL-10 (-1082G/A) genes on cirrhosis risk in HCV-infected patients. METHODS Seventy-seven chronic hepatitis C Tunisian subjects were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups: the first included 31 non-cirrhotic patients, and the second included 46 liver cirrhosis patients. IL-18 genotyping was performed using the PCR amplification and the restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis (RFLP). IFN-γ and IL-10 polymorphisms were analyzed using the allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR). RESULTS The combined high-risk genotype (IL-18 -607C/*, IL-18 -137G/*, IFN-γ +874T/*, IL-10 -1082A/A) frequency was compared between patients with and those without cirrhosis. Individuals were classified according the number of high-risk genotypes as follows: (0-2), patients with at most two high-risk genotypes; (3-4), patients with at least three of the high-risk genotypes. The logistic regression analysis showed that patients harboring 3-4 putative high-risk genotypes have a fivefold higher risk for developing cirrhosis in comparison to those harboring at most two high-risk genotypes (OR = 5.19; 95% CI = 1.49-18.05; p = 0.009). CONCLUSION Our study showed that the co-inheritance of IL-18, IFN-γ and IL-10 specific high-risk genotypes is associated with a greater risk for liver cirrhosis.

Abstract
Major trauma is the leading cause of death in young adults. Despite advances in prehospital system and treatment in hospital, mortality rates have not improved significantly over the past decades. Victims of severe injuries who survive the initial hours have great risk for additional life-threatening complicaitons, including uncontrollable infection (sepsis) and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been shown to affect susceptibility to the course of numerous diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that genetic backgrounds also play important roles in posttraumatic complications. Genetic polymorphisms may become powerful biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of trauma-induced complications. Recent advances in studies on associations between genetic polymorphisms and sepsis or MODS have led to better understanding of posttraumatic complications. Here we summarise recent findings on genetic variations in molecules of the innate immune system and other systems as well as their connection with susceptibility to posttraumatic complications.

Abstract
Apoptosis and the rapid clearance of apoptotic cells (ACs) by professional or nonprofessional phagocytes are normal and coordinated processes that ensure controlled cell growth and stress response with nonpathological outcomes. Uptake of ACs by phagocytes is thought to suppress autoimmune responses through the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), and inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines. The production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines by phagocytes is highly regulated as part of an intrinsic mechanism to prevent inflammatory and autoimmune reactions in a physiological state. Production of IL-10 by phagocytes during clearance of ACs is critical to ensuring cellular homeostasis and suppression of autoimmunity. The molecular mechanism whereby IL-10 production is induced by ACs is only beginning to be understood. This review summarizes our recent work in this aspect of an essential physiological and homeostatic process.

Abstract
The focus of this review is the genetic influence on pneumonia and sepsis. A large number of polymorphisms in a diverse collection of genes have been identified as potential candidates to explain the genetic variability in susceptibility to acute pulmonary infection and its adverse outcomes. Unfortunately, apart from polymorphisms in mannose-binding lectin, CD14 and the IgG2 receptor, there is little consensus on which polymorphisms are truly important. As well as discussing some of the major published findings, this review will focus on the reasons for failure to make more progress. We will also address the issues for future research, particularly the need to address the limitations of past studies, including the grouping of patients with different pathogens, as the relationship between genotype and phenotype may be highly pathogen dependent. Finally, our approach to reporting genetic studies needs to change to minimize the number of publications of spurious findings.

Abstract
The biallelic IL-10 single nucleotide polymorphism at -1082 of the promoter region linked to individual variation in cytokine inducibility has been strongly implicated in several pathological conditions including the development of, and outcomes in, septic shock during pneumococcal infection, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and cardiac dysfunction. However, the molecular basis of the single nucleotide polymorphism-mediated variable IL-10 production levels has not been explored. In this study, we report that the -1082G > A alleles in the promoter region of the human IL-10 gene physically interact with a nuclear protein in an allele-specific manner that results in different levels of IL-10 transcription. This protein has been identified as poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). We show that PARP-1 acts as a transcription repressor, and its DNA-binding activity is strongly regulated in macrophages that engulf apoptotic cells but not stimulated with LPS. These findings unveil a novel role of PARP-1 in the regulation of IL-10 production in an allele-dependent way, which determines individual susceptibility to sepsis-induced inflammatory pathology and the immunological sequelae in a physiological process in which clearance of infection-induced apoptotic cells by professional phagocytes triggers the cytokine synthesis.

Abstract
In an attempt to treat cancer patients with ERBB2 overexpressing tumors, we developed a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) based on the widely used humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) Trastuzumab (Herceptin). An optimized CAR vector containing CD28, 4-1BB, and CD3zeta signaling moieties was assembled in a gamma-retroviral vector and used to transduce autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) from a patient with colon cancer metastatic to the lungs and liver, refractory to multiple standard treatments. The gene transfer efficiency into autologous T cells was 79% CAR(+) in CD3(+) cells and these cells demonstrated high-specific reactivity in in vitro coculture assays. Following completion of nonmyeloablative conditioning, the patient received 10(10) cells intravenously. Within 15 minutes after cell infusion the patient experienced respiratory distress, and displayed a dramatic pulmonary infiltrate on chest X-ray. She was intubated and despite intensive medical intervention the patient died 5 days after treatment. Serum samples after cell infusion showed marked increases in interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and IL-10, consistent with a cytokine storm. We speculate that the large number of administered cells localized to the lung immediately following infusion and were triggered to release cytokine by the recognition of low levels of ERBB2 on lung epithelial cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to determine whether distributions of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α(308), interleukin (IL)-10(1082), CD14(159), and IL-1ra gene intron 2 genotypes in critically ill patients are associated with outcome, underlying cause of sepsis, and type of microorganism. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blood samples from 106 critically ill white patients were genotyped by method based on polymerase chain reaction for TNF-α(308), IL-10(1082), CD14(159), and IL-1ra gene intron 2. RESULTS All patients with TNF-α(308)AA genotype survived; relative risk (RR) of death in patients with AG was 3.250 and with GG, 1.923 (P < .01). In patients with Gram-positive sepsis, IL-10(1082)AA and then AG genotypes were the most frequent ones (odds ratio [OR], 18.67 and 7.20, respectively; P < .01). When comparing IL-10(1082)AA with AG, RR of pancreatitis was 1.80 and OR was 3.40. When AA and GG were compared, RR was 7.33 and OR was 20.00. In patients with GG, RR of peritonitis was 4.07 and OR was 5.88 (P < .01). In patients with Gram-positive sepsis, CD14(159)CT was the most frequent one with OR of 5.25. Distribution of 6 IL-1ra gene intron 2 genotypes showed no significant association. CONCLUSIONS Distribution of TNF-α(308) genotypes is associated with outcome, IL-10(1082) with type of microorganism and underlying cause of sepsis, and CD14(159) with type of microorganism.

Abstract
The induced production of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines is considered important for the development of sepsis and its sequelae. Polymorphisms in the IL-10 gene promoter could influence its expression and sepsis susceptibility. Results obtained by Dr Ling and colleagues demonstrated that the -1082A allele was significantly associated with lower lipopolysaccharide-induced IL-10 production in an allele-dose-dependent fashion. They also showed that this polymorphism was significantly associated with sepsis development after major trauma. These and other research data clearly demonstrated that the -1082 A/G polymorphism in the IL-10 gene promoter has an important impact on susceptibility of sepsis and sepsis outcome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An excessive inflammatory response is thought to account for the pathogenesis of sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) after severe trauma. The interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine. The objectives of this prospective study were to investigate the distribution of IL-10 promoter polymorphisms in a cohort of 308 Chinese Han patients with major trauma, and to identify associations of IL-10 promoter polymorphisms with IL-10 production and incidence of sepsis and MODS. METHODS A total of 308 patients with major trauma were included in this study. The genotypes of polymorphisms -1082, -819 and -592 were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The IL-10 levels in the supernatants were determined with enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay. RESULTS The -1082A and -592A alleles were significantly associated with lower lipopolysaccharide-induced IL-10 production in an allele-dose dependent fashion. There was no significant difference for the -819 polymorphism. Except for the -1082 polymorphism, the -819 and -592 polymorphisms were not significantly associated with sepsis morbidity rate and MOD scores. CONCLUSIONS Our results further confirm the functionality of the IL-10 promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms in relation to IL-10 production. They also suggest that individual difference in IL-10 production in trauma patients might be at least in part related to genetic variations in the IL-10 promoter region.
