Mol Biol Rep 2024; 51:947. [PMID: 39215891 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-024-09873-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND End stage renal disease (ESRD) occurs when the kidneys are unable to filter the waste products and excessive fluids from the blood that results into the accumulation of toxins and fluid in the body. Tacrolimus is commonly used immunosuppressant while sirolimus and cyclosporin are rarely used drugs to stop solid organ transplant rejection. The host's immunological response following transplantation produces interleukin-10 (IL-10), which influences the varied CYP3A-dependent drug disposition of tacrolimus. The aim of this study was to determine the genetic polymorphisms of IL-10 (rs1800871, rs1800872 and rs1800896) gene associated with tacrolimus metabolism in kidney transplant patients from Lahore Punjab, Pakistan. METHODS The study collected blood samples of 103 healthy individuals and 137 kidney transplant patients as control and treatment groups, respectively. We employed Tetra ARMS PCR for the genotype analysis of extracted DNA. The alleles were called on 2% agarose gel. Moreover, the study utilized SPSS software to analyze statistical significance of polymorphism. RESULTS It was found that genotypic frequencies of IL-10 (rs1800871), IL-10 (rs1800872), and IL-10 (rs1800896) were (TT: 66.4%; TC: 31.4%; CC: 2.2%), (AA: 27.7%; AC: 54%; CC: 18.2%), (AA: 64.2%; GA: 17.5%; GG: 18.3%), respectively among kidney transplant patients. All parameters show significant association at different points after transplantation. Genetic analysis showed that TC and CC genotypes in rs1800871 (OR (95%CI) = 5.721 (3.231-10.131), P < 0.001; OR (95%CI) = 3.370 (0.642-17.672), P = 0.150), AC and CC genotypes in rs1800872 (OR (95%CI) = 1.294 (0.695-2.410), P = 0.415; OR (95%CI) = 1.453 (0.671-3.147), P = 0.342), GA and GG genotypes in rs1800896 (OR (95%CI) = 42.952 (17.566-105.021), P = 0.001; OR (95%CI) = 7.040 (2.563-19.333), P = 0.342) was associated with risk of renal rejection in kidney transplant patients. Besides, genetic models showed that TT in rs1800871, AA genotypes in rs1800872 and rs1800892 were associated with risk of renal rejection under dominant model when compared to controls (OR (95%CI) = 5.721 (3.231-10.131), P < 0.001; OR (95%CI) = 1.335 (0.735-9.290), P < 0.341; OR (95%CI) = 24.629 (10.599-57.230), P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION From the results, it is concluded that genetic polymorphism of IL-10 (rs1800871, rs1800872 and rs1800896) has a highly significant association with risk of renal rejection in Pakistani kidney transplant patients.

Abstract
According Global Cancer Statistics 2020 GLOBOCAN estimates female breast cancer was found as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, with an estimated 2.3 million new cases (11.7%), and the fourth leading cause (6.9%) of cancer death among women worldwide. Identification of new diagnostic marker sharply characterize the tumor feature is intensive need. The present work was performed to investigate the involvement of the INF-γ + 874 T/A gene polymorphism in different breast cancer prognostic factors. Polymorphism detection analysis was performed on 163 subjects from breast cancer patients, 79 with inflamed cells of breast patients and 144 controls. The gene polymorphism was detected using the amplification refractory mutation system- polymerase chain reaction method (ARMS-PCR). The distribution of INF-γ T + 874A gene polymorphism shows strong significant association between INF-γ + 874 T/A genotypes TT in BC patients (ORTT: 6.41 [95% CI = 2.72-15.1] P < 0.0001) as well as strong significant association regarding T allele (ORT: 1.99 [95% CI = 1.43-2.76] P < 0.0001) when compared to the healthy control. In ICB group the strong association was noted with INF-γ + 874 T/A genotypes AT genotype (ORAT: 2.28 [95% CI = 1.22-4.29] P = 0.007). From the different histological BC hormonal markers the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) was showing significant association in INF-γ + 874 T/A genotypes TT (P = 0.03) and recessive model (TT versus AA + AT P = 0.03). Concerning different BC prognostic models, the poor prognostic one of luminal B, (ER+ve PR+ve Her2+ve) show significant association in the host INF-γ + 874 T/A genotype (TT, P = 0.03) and recessive model (TT versus AA + AT P = 0.02) when compared to the good prognostic hormonal status luminal A model, (ER+ve PR+ve Her2-ve). It seems that this is the first study that interested in correlate the INF-γ + 874 T/A gene polymorphisms in Egyptian BC patients. T allele, TT genotype and recessive model of the INF-γ + 874 T/A gene variants were documented as risk factors for BC pathogenesis. It may be used as practical biomarker to guide the BC carcinogenesis and risk process.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a widely held concern related to a substantial burden of morbidity, mortality and expenditure in the healthcare system. AKI is not a simple illness but a complex conglomeration of syndromes that often occurs as part of other syndromes in its wide clinical spectrum of the disease. Genetic factors have been suggested as potentially responsible for its susceptibility and severity. As there is no current cure nor an effective treatment other than generally accepted supportive measures and renal replacement therapy, updated knowledge of the genetic implications may serve as a strategic tactic to counteract its dire consequences. Further understanding of the genetics that predispose AKI may shed light on novel approaches for the prevention and treatment of this condition. This review attempts to address the role of key genes in the appearance and development of AKI, providing not only a comprehensive update of the intertwined process involved but also identifying specific markers that could serve as precise targets for further AKI therapies.

Transplant Proc 2020; 53:897-905. [PMID: 33010936 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2020.06.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2020] [Accepted: 06/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Reported associations of the interferon gamma (IFNG) +874T/A (rs2430561) polymorphism with post-kidney transplantation allograft rejection (AR) have been inconsistent, prompting a meta-analysis to obtain more precise estimates. METHODS Eighteen articles (22 studies) were included in the meta-analysis. Operating on the hypothesis that IFNG rs2430561 either increases or reduces AR risk, we used a genetic model-free approach to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgrouping was based on ethnicity (white, Middle Eastern, black, and mixed) and rejection type (ACR: acute rejection and CHR: chronic rejection). Quality of the associative effects was assessed with sensitivity treatment and test for publication bias. RESULTS The overall analysis in the dominant model indicated increased risk (OR = 1.26; Pa = .02) was validated in the ACR subgroup (OR = 1.29; Pa = .01), which contrasted with the CHR subgroup, with a nonsignificant effect indicating reduced risk (OR = 0.83; Pa = .68). Only the black subgroup showed significant increased risk (OR = 2.87; Pa = .04), but the association was tenuous on account of low sample size (n = 2) and imprecise effect (95% CI, 1.07-7.73). CONCLUSIONS Increased risk associations (overall and ACR) of IFNG rs2430561 with AR is significant, robust, statistically powered, and lacking bias. Contrasting ACR (1.3-fold increased risk) and CHR (7% protective) effects may be clinically relevant in the genetics of renal transplantation.

Abstract
Cytokine polymorphisms can influence their plasma levels and thus affect the immune response in renal transplantation. A total of 146 renal transplant recipients (RTR) were classified into groups according to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (R1: < 60 and R2: ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2) and time after transplantation (T1: 1 to 24, T2: 25 to 60, T3: 61 to 120, and T4: > 120 months after transplantation). The polymorphisms were genotyped by single specific primer-polymerase chain reaction. IL-10 was measured by ELISA and IL-6, and TNF levels were determined using Miliplex®. A higher frequency of the - 308G allele and the - 308G/G genotype, low-producer, was observed in the R1 group compared with R2. In addition, a higher frequency of the - 308A carriers, high-producer, was found in the R2 group. However, no significant difference was observed in cytokine levels when both groups were compared. Higher levels of IL-6 were observed in T1 compared with T2 and T4 groups. Lower IL-6 levels were found in T2 compared with T3 group. Lower levels of IL-10 were also found in T1 group in relation to T2, while higher levels of this cytokine were observed in T2 group compared with T3. The results suggest that the - 308G > A polymorphism in the TNF gene is associated with filtration function after renal transplantation, and IL-6 and IL-10 levels change according to the time after transplantation. Thus, the joint evaluation of - 308G > A polymorphism in TNF gene and IL-6 and IL-10 levels would provide a broader and effective view on the clinical monitoring of RTR.

Abstract
The extant study aimed to explore the influence of two cytokines TNF-α - 308 and IFN-γ + 874 gene polymorphism on development of renal transplant rejection and to investigate the feasibility of Th1 cytotoxic immune reaction (CD3). It includes 152 kidney recipients were divided into two subgroups: 76 stable graft functions (SGF) and 76 allograft dysfunctions (AD) compared with 56 healthy individuals as control group. TNF-α - 308 G > A and IFN-γ + 874 A > T genetic polymorphisms were characterized using ARMS-PCR technique. CD3 protein expression was measured using ELISA Kit. The effect on transplant outcome was analyzed where, statistically significant differences of TNF-a-308 G/A were observed between AD group when compared to SGF group (OR = 0.296, 95% CI = 0.091-0.965, p = .031) in AG genotype (intermediate producer genotype). Also, AD group displayed a statistically significant increase of IFN-γ + 874 TT (high producer genotype) when compared to SGF group (OR = 0.290, 95% CI = 0.127-0.665, p = .003). The expression of CD3+ T lymphocytes in recipients with allograft dysfunction was statistically higher than that with stable allograft function and control groups (732 ± 76, 235 ± 51 and 442 ± 50) respectively and (p ≤ 0.001). In conclusion, IFN-γ + 874 T and TNF-α - 308 A alleles are risk alleles for renal transplant rejection and these two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may be implicated in the tendency of rejection after renal transplantation. CD3 may be used as non-invasive biomarker in monitoring of rejection and avoid exposing patients for biopsy risks and sampling error.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This meta-analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between the transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) + 869 T/C gene polymorphism, + 915 G/C gene polymorphism, and the susceptibility of acute rejection in the recipients with renal transplantation. METHODS Relevant studies were searched and identified from the Cochrane Library and PubMed, and eligible investigations were recruited and data were calculated by meta-analysis. RESULTS In this study, we found no relationship between either TGF-β1 + 869 T/C or TGF-β1 + 915 G/C gene polymorphism and acute rejection susceptibility in patients with renal transplantation. No association between either gene polymorphism and acute rejection susceptibility in patients with renal transplantation in Caucasian, Asian, or African populations individually was found. CONCLUSION The TGF-β1 + 869 T/C and + 915 G/C gene polymorphisms are not associated with acute rejection susceptibility in recipients with renal transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathophysiology of ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI) is thought to include a complex interplay between tubular cell damage and regeneration. Several lines of evidences suggest a potential renoprotective effect of vitamin D. In this study, we investigated the effect of 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT), a synthetic vitamin D analogue, on renal fate in a rat model of ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) induced acute kidney injury (AKI). METHODS 22-oxacalcitriol (OCT) was administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection before ischemia, and continued after IRI that was performed through bilateral clamping of the renal pedicles. 96 h after reperfusion, rats were sacrificed for the evaluation of autophagy, apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest. Additionally, assessments of toll-like receptors (TLR), interferon gamma (IFN-g) and sodium-hydrogen exchanger-1 (NHE-1) were also performed to examine their relations to OCT-mediated cell response. RESULTS Treatment with OCT-attenuated functional deterioration and histological damage in IRI induced AKI, and significantly decreased cell apoptosis and fibrosis. In comparison with IRI rats, OCT + IRI rats manifested a significant exacerbation of autophagy as well as reduced cell cycle arrest. Moreover, the administration of OCT decreased IRI-induced upregulation of TLR4, IFN-g and NHE-1. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that treatment with OCT has a renoprotective effect in ischemic AKI, possibly by suppressing cell loss. Changes in the expression of IFN-g and NHE-1 could partially link OCT to the cell survival-promoted effects.

Abstract
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are designed to investigate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the association with a clinical phenotype. A previous GWAS performed in 300 renal transplant recipients identified two SNPs (rs3811321 and rs6565887) associated with serum creatinine and clinical outcome. We sought to validate these findings. Genotyping of the two SNPs was performed using Taqman assays in 1638 Caucasians participating in the Assessment of LEscol in Renal Transplant (ALERT) study. Primary endpoint was death-censored graft loss, and secondary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Applying Cox regression, no crude association to graft loss was found for rs3811321 on chromosome 14 (hazard ratio [HR] 0.87, 95% CI 0.59-1.29, p = 0.50) or rs6565887 on chromosome 18 (HR 0.88, CI 0.62-1.25, p = 0.48). Multivariable adjustments did not change results, nor did evaluation of the number of risk alleles formed by the two SNPs. No association with mortality was detected. In conclusion, an impact of two SNPs on chromosomes 14 and 18 on death-censored graft survival or all-cause mortality was not confirmed. Our results emphasize the importance of validating findings from high-throughput genetics studies and call for large collaborative research initiatives in the field of transplantation outcomes.

Association Interleukin-4 and Interleukin-4 Receptor Gene Polymorphism and Acute Rejection and Graft Dysfunction After Kidney Transplantation. Transplant Proc 2017; 48:813-9. [PMID: 27234743 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2015.12.059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2015] [Revised: 11/25/2015] [Accepted: 12/30/2015] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytokine genotypes have previously been studied in patients undergoing solid organ transplantation; certain polymorphisms have been implicated in the development of acute rejection (AR) and graft dysfunction (GD). Allograft outcomes determined, in part, by alloimmune responses is mainly mediated by T-cell responses, activated and driven by cytokines. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is one such cytokine, which exerts its biological effects through binding to the IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) complex on target cells. In the present study, we investigated whether polymorphisms of the IL-4 and/or IL-4R gene were associated with susceptibility to acute AR and GD after kidney transplantation. METHODS We analyzed 2 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) of IL-4 (rs2243250 and rs2070874) and 3 SNPs of IL-4R (rs1801275, rs2107356, and rs1805010) in 344 kidney transplant recipients. These patients included 62 of whom had developed AR and 215 of whom had GD in 1 year after kidney transplantation. RESULTS The AR group included 62 patients (45 men and 17 women). There was a statistically significant difference in the male-to-female ratio and the use of tacrolimus in the AR group. The GD group included 215 patients. Patients who developed GD were more likely to be older and have an underlying cause of end-stage renal disease that was unknown compared with patients who did not have GD, the cause of which was typically known. Among the SNPs examined, 1 of the SNPs in the IL-4R gene (ie, rs1801275) showed a statistical association with AR (co-dominant model, P = .061; dominant model, P = .019; and log-addictive model, P = .029). In addition, 1 of the IL-4R SNPs (ie, rs2107356) was statistically associated with GD (dominant model, P = .034). No significant difference in the IL-4 genotype was observed between the AR/GD and non-AR/non-GD subjects. CONCLUSIONS One IL-4R gene polymorphism (rs1801275) was associated with AR. In addition, a separate IL-4R SNP (rs2107356) was statistically associated with GD after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute rejection (AR) after renal transplantation affects both patient and graft survival. There is growing evidence of the genetic association between cytokine or its receptor antagonist and AR in solid organ transplantation. The objectives of this study were to investigate the role of recipient TNF β, IL-10, IL-1β, and IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra) gene polymorphism, as well as traditional clinical variables such as panel-reactive antibody (PRA) levels, donor type, and HLA mismatches in AR following renal transplantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS TNF β (+252A/G), IL-10 (-592A/C), IL-1β (-511C/T) and IL-1ra (86 bp VNTR) gene polymorphisms were determined in 195 renal allograft recipients with and without AR, using PCR. Both these genotypic variants and clinical risk factors were investigated for correlation with AR within the first year after renal transplantation. RESULTS Patients with increased pre-transplant PRA levels (P<0.001) and donor type (P=0.012) were prone to the development of AR. After adjusting for all variables of P<0.2, a PRA level >10% (OR=4.515, 95% confidence intervals=1.738-11.727, P=0.002) and the receipt of a graft from a donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor (OR=2.437, 95% confidence intervals=1.047-5.673, P=0.039) remained significantly associated with AR in a multivariate logistic regression analysis. No correlation could be found between recipients with an episode and absence of acute rejection and the gene polymorphisms of these cytokines investigated in the present study. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that the presence of increased pre-transplant levels of PRA and the receipt of a graft from DCD donor other than cytokine gene polymorphisms are significant risk factors for AR in renal transplantation. To reduce the occurrence of AR, clinicians should take necessary measures to lower the PRA levels and pay more attention to patients who received a graft from a DCD donor.

The Polymorphism -308G/A of Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Gene Modulates the Effect of Immunosuppressive Treatment in First Kidney Transplant Subjects Who Suffer an Acute Rejection. J Immunol Res 2016; 2016:2197595. [PMID: 27777962 PMCID: PMC5061951 DOI: 10.1155/2016/2197595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2016] [Revised: 09/01/2016] [Accepted: 09/15/2016] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The -308G/A SNP of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) gene affects TNF-α production. As its impact on transplant outcome remains open to debate, we decided to genotype it in a cohort of transplant subjects. A retrospective analysis of 439 first kidney recipients randomly divided into two subgroups (discovery and validation cohorts) was performed to identify the best predictors of acute rejection (AR). The effect on transplant outcome was analyzed by an adjusted logistic regression model. Carriers of the A allele, associated with elevated TNF-α production, presented a higher risk of AR (OR = 2.78; 95% CI = 1.40-5.51). Logistic regression analyses for AR showed an interaction between the polymorphism and treatment with thymoglobulin (p-interaction = 0.03). In recipients who did not receive thymoglobulin, carriers of A allele had higher risk of AR (OR = 4.05; 95% CI = 1.76-9.28). Moreover, carriers of A allele not treated with thymoglobulin presented higher risk of AR than those who received thymoglobulin (OR = 13.74; 95% CI = 1.59-118.7). The AUC of the model in the discovery cohort was 0.70 and in the validation cohort was 0.69. Our findings indicate that the -308G/A TNF-α polymorphism is associated with AR risk and it modulates the effectiveness of thymoglobulin treatment. This pharmacogenetic effect lets us propose this SNP as a useful predictor biomarker to tailor immunosuppressive regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known as to whether the interleukin4 (IL4) gene polymorphisms in recipients or donors affect the incidence of acute cellular rejection (ACR) following living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Therefore, we determined the effect of IL4 T-33C polymorphisms in recipients and donors on ACR in a large cohort of patients that underwent LDLT. METHODS We examined 155 LDLT cases treated at Nagoya University or Kyoto University, Japan, between 2004 and 2009. IL4 T-33C polymorphisms were analyzed in recipients and donors. RESULTS Forty-seven recipients (30.3%) developed early ACR. The genotype frequency of IL4 T-33C in the recipients was associated with ACR incidence (P=0.008, P<0.0125 considered significant). Patients with the IL4-33C carrier genotype (C/C or C/T) were significantly associated with a higher incidence of ACR relative to those with the T/T genotype (OR=3.27, 95% CI: 1.56-6.88, P=0.002). The genotype frequencies of IL4 T-33C in the donors were not associated with rejection incidence. In addition, there was no significant effect of IL4 T-33C genotype combinations on ACR incidence in donors and recipients. CONCLUSIONS Genotyping of IL4 T-33C in recipients might be useful to stratify the liver transplant recipients according to their risk of ACR.

Abstract
Organ transplantation has always been considered to be the optimal therapeutic intervention in patients with end-stage organ failure. In the US, approximately 615,000 patients are diagnosed with end-stage renal disease and less than 30% have received a kidney transplant. One of the crucial drawbacks in successful renal transplantation is allograft rejection. Survival rates among transplant recipients have greatly improved due to better understanding of transplant biology and more effective immunosuppressive agents. Post-transplant immune monitoring and optimization of the immunosuppressive therapy using non-invasive biomarkers can effectively predict impending graft rejection and may spare the need for renal biopsy. This article provides an insight into the immunomodulations of renal transplant recipients. It depicts the immune system including several types of kidney rejection and reviews the biomarkers that may serve in near future, as surveillance tools for graft monitoring. Finally, a summary on the main immunosuppressive drugs used in kidney transplant both in the induction and maintenance phases is also covered.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the potential influence of variants in genes involved in the calcineurin pathway on the efficacy and toxicity of calcineurin inhibitors in renal transplantation. MATERIALS & METHODS Twenty-three polymorphisms in thirteen genes were tested in 381 renal transplant recipients receiving ciclosporin (n = 221) or tacrolimus (n = 160) and mycophenolate mofetil. Data were collected prospectively over the first year post-transplantation. RESULTS Multivariate survival analyses revealed no genetic associations with biopsy proven acute graft rejection and serious infections. Donor-recipient Cytomegalovirus mismatch was the only variable associated with serious infection. CONCLUSION This large exploratory study casts doubts on the potential interest of genetic biomarkers related to CNI pharmacodynamics but associations with other phenotypes in transplantation deserve further studies.

Abstract
Interindividual variability in immunosuppressive drug responses might be partly explained by genetic variants in proteins involved in the immune response or associated with IS pharmacodynamics. On a general basis, the pharmacogenetics of drug target proteins is less known and understood than that of proteins involved in drug disposition pathways. The aim of this review is to facilitate research related to the pharmacodynamics of the main immunosuppressive drugs used in solid organ transplantation. We elaborated a quality of evidence grading system based on a literature review and identified 'highly recommended', 'recommended' or 'potential' candidates for further research. It is likely that a number of additional rare variants might further explain drug response phenotypes in transplantation, and particularly the most severe ones. The advent of next-generation sequencing will help to identify those variants.

[PMID: 25147823 PMCID: PMC4132405 DOI: 10.1155/2014/904730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2014] [Revised: 05/27/2014] [Accepted: 06/18/2014] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Genetic variations in TGF-β and IFN-γ may interfere with proinflammatory cytokine production and, consequently, may be involved with inflammatory diseases, as acute kidney injury (AKI). We considered that genetic polymorphisms of these cytokines may have a crucial role in the outcome of critically ill patients. To investigate whether the genetic polymorphisms of rs1800470 (codon 10 T/C), rs1800471 (codon 25 C/G) from the TGF-β, and rs2430561 (+874 T/A) from IFN-γ may be a risk factor for ICU patients to the development of AKI and/or death. In a prospective nested case-control study, were included 139 ICU patients who developed AKI, 164 ICU patients without AKI, and 244 healthy individuals. We observed a higher frequency to T/A genotype for IFN-γ (intermediate producer phenotype) and higher frequency of TT GG and TC GG genotype (high producer) for TGF-β polymorphism in overall population. However, these polymorphisms have not been shown as a predictor of risk for AKI and death. We found an increased prevalence of high and intermediate producer phenotypes from TGF-β and IFN-γ, respectively, in patients in ICU setting. However, the studied genetic polymorphism of the TGF-β and IFN-γ was not associated as a risk factor for AKI or death in our population.

Abstract
One reason for genetic variations among human individuals is SNP which may confer diverse disease susceptibility or resistance in a population. Genetic variations in a key immunoregulatory agent can manifest various immunological responses, such as graft rejection. In fact, the outcome of organ transplantation can be impacted by several genetic causes including polymorphisms in genes encoding cytokines and costimulatory molecules in the donor or recipient. Thus, it can be helpful to contemplate the SNPs relating to these immunological determinants in order to achieve an improved transplantation therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND BK virus nephropathy is one of the most common viral infections that affect up to 10% of renal transplant recipients (RTRs), causing allograft dysfunction and graft loss. Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) gene polymorphisms have been associated with parvovirus B19, hepatitis C virus, HIV-1/AIDS infection, cytomegalovirus viremia, and disease. IFN-γ is known to have potent inhibitory effects on BK virus gene expression, both at the level of transcription and translation. METHODS It was investigated whether IFN-γ polymorphisms are associated with BKV infection. Genotyping of four single-nucleotide polymorphisms located in the IFN-γ gene were performed on DNA collected from a total of 251 RTRs (71 RTRs with BKV infection and 180 without BKV infection). RESULTS Analysis of the results showed that IFN-γ (rs12369470) CC genotype was significantly associated with susceptibility to BKV infection (OR: 2.9, 95% CI: 1.29-6.44, P=0.007) while the IFN-γ +874 (rs2435061) TT and (rs2406918) CC genotypes appear to be markers for protection against BKV infection (OR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.1-0.83, P=0.01 for rs245061; OR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.4-0.94, P=0.02 for rs24069718). A haplotype analysis using the combination of rs2435061-rs2406918-rs2870953 showed that the A-G-T haplotype was associated with a significantly reduced risk for BKV infection (OR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.25-0.73, P=0.001). CONCLUSION Polymorphisms in the IFN-γ gene may confer certain protection or predisposition for BKV infection.

Association between transforming growth factor beta-1 +869T/C polymorphism and acute rejection of solid organ allograft: A meta-analysis and systematic review. Transpl Immunol 2014; 30:76-83. [PMID: 24486560 DOI: 10.1016/j.trim.2014.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2013] [Revised: 01/19/2014] [Accepted: 01/20/2014] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Transforming growth factor beta-1(TGFB1) is involved in the acute rejection (AR) episodes of solid organ transplant recipients. However, results from published studies on the association between donor/recipient TGFB1 +869T/C polymorphism and AR risk are conflicting and inconclusive. METHODS PUBMED, EMBASE, CNKI and Wanfang Database were searched to identify eligible studies investigating the association between donor/recipient TGFB1 +869T/C polymorphism and AR risk. Statistical analysis was performed by using STATA 10.0. RESULTS A total of 29 studies were included. Overall, the donor TGFB1 +869T/C polymorphism was significantly associated with AR risk in heterozygote comparison (CT vs. TT: OR = 1.67, 95%CI, 1.17-2.39; P heterogeneity=0.285) and dominant model (CC vs. TC/TT OR = 1.47, 95%CI, 1.05-2.06; P heterogeneity=0.445). In addition, subgroup analysis revealed that CT variant (CT vs. TT: OR = 1.97, 95%CI, 1.20-3.25; P heterogeneity = 0.777) and CC/CT genotype (CC/CT vs. TT: OR = 1.72, 95%CI, 1.07, 2.78; P heterogeneity = 0.619) within donors contributed to higher risk of AR in recipients administrated with CsA or FK506, compared with those applied only CsA. On the other hand, no significant association between recipient TGFB1 +869T/C polymorphism and AR was detected in all genetic models. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis and systematic review suggested that donor TGFB1 +869T/C polymorphism was significantly associated with AR of solid organ transplant recipients, and especially among patients in CsA/FK 506 group compared with those in CsA group.

Abstract
Interferon gamma is involved in the acute rejection (AR) episodes of transplant recipients. However, results from published studies on the association of interferon gamma (IFNG) +874 T>A (rs2430561) polymorphism with AR of renal allograft are conflicting. To investigate the association between IFNG +874 T>A polymorphism with AR after renal transplantation, relevant studies were selected from PUBMED, EMBASE, Wanfang database and China National Knowledge Infrastructure until March 1st 2013. According the predesigned selection criteria, a total of 525 AR cases and 1,126 non-AR cases from 13 case-control studies were included to identify the strength of association with odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CI). Overall, a significant correlation between IFNG +874 T>A polymorphism and susceptibility to AR was detected (T allele vs. A allele: OR = 1.19, 95 % CI 1.02-1.38; TT/AT vs. AA: OR = 1.36, 95 % CI 1.07-1.73; TT vs. AA: OR = 1.42, 95 % CI 1.05-1.93; AT vs. AA: OR = 1.30, 95 % CI 1.01-1.68). In addition, ethnicity subgroup analysis revealed that high produce genotype (TT/AT) was associated with an increased risk of AR for Caucasians (TT/AT vs. AA: OR = 1.56, 95 % CI 1.14-2.12; TT vs. AA: OR = 1.64, 95 % CI 1.18-2.26). Furthermore, donor source subgroup analysis observed an increased risk for patients undergoing cadaveric kidney transplantation (TT/AT vs. AA: OR = 1.90, 95 % CI 1.12-3.24; TA vs. AA: OR = 2.16, 95 % CI 1.24-3.74). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggested that IFNG +874 T>A polymorphism was associated with AR of renal transplant recipients, especially among Caucasians and those receiving cadaveric renal allograft. Additional well-designed studies with large sample size are warranted to validate our conclusion.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphism studies of cytokines may provide an insight into the understanding of acute kidney injury (AKI) and death in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the genetic polymorphisms of -308 G < A tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α, -174 G > C interleukin (IL)-6 and -1082 G > A IL-10 may predispose ICU patients to the development of AKI and/or death. In a prospective nested case-control study, 303 ICU patients and 244 healthy individuals were evaluated. The study group included ICU patients who developed AKI (n = 139) and 164 ICU patients without AKI. The GG genotype of TNF-α (low producer phenotype) was significantly lower in the with AKI than without AKI groups and healthy individuals (55 versus 62 versus 73%, respectively; P = 0·01). When genotypes were stratified into four categories of TNF-α/IL-10 combinations, it was observed that low TNF-α plus low IL-10 producer phenotypes were more prevalent in patients with AKI, renal replacement therapy and death (P < 0·05). In logistic regression analysis, low TNF-α producer plus low IL-10 producer phenotypes remained as independent risk factors for AKI and/or death [odds ratio (OR) = 2·37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1·16-4·84; P = 0·02] and for renal replacement therapy (RRT) and/or death (OR = 3·82, 95% CI: 1·19-12·23; P = 0·02). In this study, the combination of low TNF-α plus low IL-10 producer phenotypes was an independent risk factor to AKI and/or death and RRT and/or death in critically ill patients. Our results should be validated in a larger prospective study with long-term follow-up to emphasize the combination of these genotypes as potential risk factors to AKI in critically ill patients.
