Abstract
Phthalates and their alternatives are considered significant environmental risk factors that potentially influence inflammation and oxidative stress. However, their impact on biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress was inconsistent. This study aimed to explore the associations between phthalates and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), and white blood cell (WBC) counts, employing both univariate exposure and multivariate co-exposure models. For this analysis, a total of 1619 individuals aged 18 years and above, sourced from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2017 and 2018, were selected as subjects. We explored the associations between hsCRP, GGT, and WBC counts and eighteen different phthalate metabolites. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed significant associations between both MCNP and MEHP and hsCRP. We observed negative correlations of MCOP, MCPP, MHBP, and MONP with GGT. Conversely, MEHHP and MEHHTP exhibited positive correlations with GGT. Furthermore, MECPTP and MEHHTP showed positive correlations with WBC. Notably, we identified a non-linear relationship between phthalates and inflammation and oxidative stress markers. The Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) analysis demonstrated a negative joint effect of the phthalates mixture on GGT, particularly at lower concentrations. The BKMR model also found that MEOHP and MHiBP were negatively associated with GGT. In contrast, MEHHP showed a significant positive association with GGT. Moderating effect analysis suggested that dietary inflammatory index (DII), income-to-poverty ratio (PIR), age, BMI, and physical activity influenced the association between phthalates and inflammation and oxidative stress. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationships between phthalates and inflammation and oxidative stress.

Abstract
During systemic inflammation, pro-inflammatory cytokines alter metabolism and transport of drugs affecting the clinical outcome. We used an in vivo like human 3D liver spheroid model to study the effects and mechanisms of pro-inflammatory cytokines on the expression of 9 different genes encoding enzymes responsible for the metabolism of > 90% of clinically used drugs. Treatment of spheroids with pathophysiologically relevant concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6, or TNFα resulted in a pronounced decrease in mRNA expression of CYP3A4 and UGT2B10 within 5 hours. The reduction of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6 mRNA expression was less pronounced, whereas the pro-inflammatory cytokines caused increased CYP2E1, and UGT1A3 mRNA expression. The cytokines did not influence expression of key nuclear proteins, nor the activities of specific kinases involved in the regulation of genes encoding drug metabolizing enzymes. However, ruxolitinib, a JAK1/2 inhibitor, inhibited the IL-6 dependent increase in CYP2E1 and the decrease in CYP3A4 and UGT2B10 mRNA expression. We evaluated the effect of TNFα in hepatocytes in 2D plates and found a rapid decrease in drug-metabolizing enzyme mRNA both in the absence or presence of the cytokines. Taken together, these data suggest that pro-inflammatory cytokines regulate multiple gene- and cytokine-specific events seen in in vivo and in 3D but not in 2D liver models. We propose that the 3D spheroid system is suitable for the prediction of drug metabolism under conditions of inflammation and constitutes a versatile system for short- and long-term preclinical and mechanistic studies of cytokine-induced changes in drug metabolism.

Abstract
Chronic cervical spondylitis (CCS), a degenerative disorder of the spine, is known for causing disability among old and young people. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in various cytokine genes have demonstrated an impactful association with several inflammatory disorders. In the present study, we have investigated the SNPs and allelic distribution of the three most prevalent cytokines genes, IL-1β (-511C/T), TNF-α (-308G/A), and TGF-β (-509C/T), along with serum levels of these cytokines in 252 subjects. SNPs were analyzed using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), and digested fragments were separated and visualized using agarose gel electrophoresis and Native Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The serum cytokine levels were analyzed with a flow cytometer using a customized multiplex bead-based assay. It was observed that these SNPs did not reflect the susceptibility to CCS but were associated with susceptibility to CCS. We found a significant association between the C/C and G/G genotypes and the C and G alleles of IL-1β and TNF-α, respectively, suggesting a lower risk of CCS. The frequency distribution of risk alleles (-511T) and (-308A) were simultaneously higher in CCS compared to the control, reflecting the susceptibility to CCS. TGF-β showed a significant association with disease susceptibility, along with a significant correlation between age and the chronicity of CCS. The serum cytokine levels were significantly different in CCS and controls.

Abstract
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of anti-receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-κB ligand (RANKL) monoclonal antibodies R748-1-1-1, R748-1-1-2 and R748-1-1-3 on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a rat model.
Materials and methods: Gene cloning, hybridoma technology, affinity purification, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, general observation, hematoxylin-eosin staining, X-ray, and many other experimental techniques were used in this study.
Results: Improved collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) modeling was successfully constructed. The RANKL gene was cloned and the anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody was prepared. Following treatment with the anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody, the soft tissue swelling of the hind paws, the joint thickening, the narrowed joint gap, and the blurred edge of the bone joint were improved. The pathological changes such as synovial hyperplasia of fibrous tissue, cartilage and bone destruction were significantly decreased in the anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody-treated CIA group. Compared to the normal control group and phosphate buffer saline (PBS)-treated CIA group, the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) in antibody-treated CIA group, positive drug-treated CIA group, and IgG-treated CIA group were decreased (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody can promote the therapeutic effect of RA rats, indicating that the anti-RANKL monoclonal antibody has a certain potential value and may be beneficial to the further study of the mechanism of RA treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various reports examined the contribution of ACE I/D, IL-1β G > A and IL-4 VNTR with the susceptibility to RA but with conflicting findings. The goal of this study is to assess the impact of these three variants with the susceptibility, clinical and biochemical markers in addition to different composite indices of RA. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This case-control survey enclosed 120 RA Egyptian patients who were emulated with 150 healthy controls from the same territory. Their genomic DNA was genotyped utilising the PCR approach. RESULTS RA patients with ACE allele (D) and IL-4 VNTR allele (2 R) were expressively higher emulated with healthy controls (p < .05). Nevertheless, RA patients with IL-1β (A allele) failed to achieve an apparent significant emulated with healthy controls (p > .05). CONCLUSIONS This work specifies a noteworthy association for ACE I/D and IL-4 VNTR but not IL-1β G > A polymorphisms with RA susceptibility among Egyptian subjects.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are two cytokines involved in the perpetuation of the chronic inflammation state characterizing rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Significant advances in the treatment of this pathology have been made over the past ten years, partially through the development of anti-TNF and anti-IL-1 therapies. However, major side effects still persist and new alternative therapies should be considered. The formulation of the micro-immunotherapy medicine (MIM) 2LARTH® uses ultra-low doses (ULD) of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-2, in association with other immune factors, to gently restore the body’s homeostasis. The first part of this review aims at delineating the pivotal roles played by IL-1β and TNF-α in RA physiopathology, leading to the development of anti-TNF and anti-IL-1 therapeutic agents. In a second part, an emphasis will be made on explaining the rationale of using multiple therapeutic targets, including both IL-1β and TNF-α in 2LARTH® medicine. Particular attention will be paid to the ULD of those two main pro-inflammatory factors in order to counteract their overexpression through the lens of their molecular implication in RA pathogenesis.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the association of polymorphism of IL-1β rs16944(T/C) with intervertebral disk degeneration (IDD), explore the possible mechanism and evaluate the predictive value of IL-1β for IDD. Patients and Methods A total of 196 consecutive patients with IDD were recruited, and 196 healthy controls were matched to these patients based on sex and age (±3 years). The polymorphisms of IL-1β rs16944(T/C), rs1143623(G/C), rs10490571(T/C) and rs2853550(A/G) were determined, and serum IL-1β, MMP-1, MMP-3, MMP-9 and a disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motif-4 (ADAMTS-4) levels were measured. Univariate analysis was performed with Student t-test or one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc and Chi-square test. Variables with two-sided P<0.10 were included in multivariate analysis, which employed a backward stepwise logistic regression model. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value. Results Multivariate analysis showed that the polymorphism of IL-1β rs16944(T/C) was independently associated with IDD. The risk for IDD was significantly increased in TT and TC genotype compared with CC genotype, and the OR of TT genotype was higher than that of TC genotype. ANOVA analysis showed that serum concentration of IL-1β was highest in IL-1β rs16944 TT genotype, intermediate in TC genotype, and lowest in CC genotype. Similarly, serum concentrations of MMP-3 and ADAMTS-4 demonstrated the same tendency of TT > TC > CC genotype. Serum concentrations of MMP-1 and MMP-9 were higher in TT genotype than in TC and CC genotype. The area under curve (AUC) of IL-1β levels in predicting IDD was 0.788 (SE: 0.023, P=0.001, 95% CI: 0.742–0.834), and the predictive value was modest with a sensitivity of 77.0% and a specificity of 75%. Conclusion Polymorphism of IL-1β rs16944(T/C) affected IDD susceptibility through upregulation of serum levels of IL-1β and subsequent stimulation of ECM degradation. IL-1β levels could be applied in predicting IDD.

Abstract
The acute sickness response (ASR) is a stereotyped set of symptoms including fatigue, pain, and disturbed mood, which are present in most acute infections. The immunological mechanisms of the ASR are conserved, with variations in severity determined partly by the pathogen, but also by polymorphisms in host genes. The ASR was characterised in three different serologically-confirmed acute infections in Caucasians (n = 484) across four symptom domains or endophenotypes (termed 'Fatigue', 'Musculoskeletal pain', 'Mood disturbance', and 'Acute sickness'). Correlations were sought with functional single nucleotide polymorphisms in the NLRP3 inflammasone pathway and severity of the endophenotypes. Individuals with severe Fatigue, Musculoskeletal pain, or Mood endophenotypes were more likely to have prior episodes of significant fatigue (11.4 vs. 3.8%, p = 0.07), pain (14.3 vs. 1.2%, p = 0.001), or Mood disturbance (13 vs 1%, p=0.001), suggesting trait characteristics. The high functioning allele of the rs35829419 SNP in NLRP3 was more common in those with severe Fatigue (OR = 13.3, 95% CI: 1.7-104), particularly in a dominant inheritance pattern (OR = 13.4, 95% CI: 1.8-586.3). In a multivariable analysis assuming dominant inheritance, both rs35829419 and the rs4848306 SNP in Interleukin(IL)-1β, were independently associated with severe Fatigue (OR = 29.6, 95% CI: 2.6-330.9 and OR = 13, 95% CI: 2.7-61.8, respectively). The severity of fatigue in acute infection is influenced by genetic polymorphisms in NLRP3 and IL-1β.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies on polymorphisms in interleukin-1 (IL-1) and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA)/systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) yielded inconsistent results. OBJECTIVES The authors performed this meta-analysis to more robustly evaluate associations between polymorphisms in the IL-1 gene and the risk of RA/SLE. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Wanfang, VIP, and CNKI were systematically searched for eligible studies, and 34 relevant studies were finally selected to be eligible for inclusion. RESULTS We found that IL-1A +4845G/T polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of RA in the overall population (dominant comparison: p = 0.02; overdominant comparison: p = 0.05; allele comparison: p = 0.04), whereas IL-1B +3954C/T polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of RA in the overall population (overdominant comparison: p = 0.03; allele comparison: p = 0.01) and Asians (recessive comparison: p = 0.007; allele comparison: p = 0.002). In addition, we found that IL-1A -889C/T polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of SLE in Caucasians (allele comparison: p = 0.04), IL-1B -31T/C polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of SLE in the overall population (recessive comparison: p = 0.04), and IL-1B -511C/T polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of SLE in Asians (recessive comparison: p = 0.01; allele comparison: p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis suggests that IL-1A +4845G/T and IL-1B +3954C/T polymorphisms may influence the risk of RA, whereas IL-1A -889C/T, IL-1B -31T/C, and IL-1B -511C/T polymorphisms may influence the risk of SLE.

Abstract
The antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by myositis, arthritis, mechanic's hands, fever, Raynaud phenomenon, and interstitial lung disease (ILD). We aimed to evaluate single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the interleukin 1B (IL1B) gene and their association between ILD with antisynthetase autoantibodies, as well as IL-1β serum levels. The most frequent antisynthetase autoantibody was anti-Jo1. The most frequent tomographic pattern was non-specific interstitial pneumonia, whereas in the anti-Jo1 subjects, it was organized pneumonia. Anti-Jo1 patients tend to have more significant arthritis, and Raynaud phenomenon have higher levels of creatinine phosphokinase. In the IL1B gene, the GG genotype and G allele of rs1143634 [odds ratio (OR) = 2.21 and OR = 2.60, respectively, p < 0.05] are associated with an increased risk, as well as with the dominant and recessive models (p < 0.05). This finding is maintained after logistic regression analysis adjusting for potential confounding variables (p < 0.05). Subjects with the rs16944/AG heterozygous genotype had higher serum levels of IL-1β compared to homozygous (p < 0.05). In conclusion, rs1143634 is associated with a higher risk of ASSD. Also, the GA genotype is associated with higher levels of IL-1β in ASSD patients.

Abstract
Papulopustular rosacea (PPR) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with limited treatment options. Although multiple pathways have been described to be upregulated in PPR, a mechanistic understanding of the key drivers and interaction between pathways in PPR pathology is lacking. In this study, we utilized PPR skin biopsy explants to integrate both differentially expressed genes and differentially expressed proteins in paired nonlesional and lesional PPR tissue (n = 5 patients). The results of this study identified 92 differentially expressed genes and 20 differentially expressed proteins between paired PPR lesional and nonlesional explants. MAPK and TNF signaling pathways were the most significantly upregulated pathways in PPR lesional tissue and aligned with differently expressed proteins identified in this study. Both MAPK and TNF signaling pathways highlighted IL-1β as a potential central mediator for PPR pathogenesis. In support of this, stimulation of nonlesional explants with IL-1β resulted in transcriptomic and proteomic profiles similar to those of lesional PPR. In this integrative transcriptomic and quantitative protein analysis, we identified several inflammatory genes, proteins, and pathways, which may be contributing to PPR, as well as highlighted a potential role of IL-1β in driving inflammation in PPR.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly recognized to play important roles in multiple autoimmune diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the association of four lncRNAs (ANRIL, lnc-DC, MALAT1, ZFAS1) genes single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, as well as their expression levels. Seventeen SNPs of the four lncRNAs were genotyped in a cohort of 660 RA patients and 710 controls using improved multiple ligase detection reaction (iMLDR). The lncRNAs expressions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 120 RA patients and 120 controls were detected by qRT-PCR. No significant differences were found for the allele and genotype frequencies distribution of ANRIL SNPs (rs1412830, rs944796, rs61271866, rs2518723, rs3217992), lnc-DC SNPs (rs7217280, rs10515177), MALAT1 SNPs (rs619586, rs4102217, rs591291, rs11227209, rs35138901), ZFAS1 SNPs (rs237742, rs73116127, rs6125607, rs6125608) between RA patients and normal controls (all P > 0.05). The genotype effects of dominant and recessive models were also evaluated, but no significant association was found. In addition, our results demonstrated that the rs944796 G allele, rs2518723 T allele, rs3217992 T allele frequencies were significantly associated with anti-CCP in RA patients (all P < 0.05). The haplotype CGTA frequency for ZFAS1 was significantly higher in RA patients (P = 0.036). Compared with normal controls, the expression levels of ANRIL, lnc-DC, MALAT1, ZFAS1 in PBMCs were significantly reduced in RA patients (all P < 0.001). Moreover, ZFAS1 expression was negatively associated with CRP in RA patients (P = 0.002). In summary, ANRIL, lnc-DC, MALAT1, and ZFAS1 genes SNPs were not associated with RA susceptibility, while altered ANRIL, lnc-DC, MALAT1, ZFAS1 levels in RA patients suggested that these lncRNAs might play a role in RA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the association between interleukin gene polymorphism and recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS). DESIGNS Two electronic databases, PubMed and Embase, were utilized to assemble potentially relevant studies meeting the inclusion criteria. A meta-analysis was conducted using Revman 5.3 software (London, UK), and the pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were then used to evaluate the strength of the relationship between the gene polymorphisms of IL-1beta(-511C/T), IL-1beta(+3954C/T), IL-6(-174G/C) and IL-10(-1082G/A) and the risk of RAS. RESULTS Ten studies were included in the final meta-analysis, with 884 cases and 1104 controls participating. The results demonstrated that the polymorphism of IL-1beta(-511C/T) significantly increased the probability of the development of RAS in Europeans. (T vs. C: OR = 1.35, 95%CI = 1.09-1.67; CC vs. CT + TT: OR = 1.77, 95%CI = 1.24-2.53; CC vs. TT: OR = 1.86, 95%CI = 1.18-2.95). Furthermore, the C allele in IL-1beta(+3954C/T) was determined to be related to the risk of RAS in Americans (C vs. T: OR = 1.52, 95%CI = 1.07-2.17) and the presence of the C gene was considered a risk variant (CC + CT vs. TT: OR = 1.46, 95%CI = 1.01-2.11), but no relationship was found between the polymorphism of IL-10(-1082G/A) and the risk of RAS. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis suggested that the mutation of IL-1beta(-511C/T) in Europe and IL-1beta(+3954C/T) in America tend to increase the risk of RAS, but the polymorphism of IL-10(-1082G/A) appears to have no association with RAS risk in America. Further study is required to confirm the above conclusions.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) has been major health concern affecting 1%–2% of world adult population. Role of various cytokines in chronic heart failure (CHF) have been demonstrated in different populations; however, association of an important cytokine, interleukin-1β (IL-β), is poorly documented. Furthermore, polymorphism in promoter region is shown to be linked with cytokines levels. In this study, we explored plasma levels of IL-1β in healthy controls (HCs) and different clinical categories of CHF and association of common IL-1β promoter variants with susceptibility to development of HF. In all, 354 CHF patients admitted to Department of Cardiology at the first affiliated hospital of Soochow University were enrolled in this study. These patients were further clinically sub-categorized into New York Heart Association (NYHA)-I to IV based on NYHA criteria. A total of 77 HCs were included in the current investigation. Plasma levels of IL-1β were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and common promoter gene polymorphisms in IL-1β gene were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). CHF patients displayed higher plasma IL-1β compared to HCs. Interestingly, plasma levels of IL-1β were associated with severity of HF patients: NYHA-IV had highest levels, and least quantity was noticed in NYHA-I cases. Prevalence of heterozygous and homozygous mutant for C-511T polymorphisms were significantly higher in CHF patients when compared to HCs. Importantly, these observations remained valid for NYHA-III and IV sub-groups in comparison to controls. Elevated plasma levels of IL-1β were observed in 511 mutants (CT and TT) than wild type (CC), indicating important function variants determining plasma levels of cytokine in both controls and patients. In conclusion, IL-1β (C-511T) variants are associated with elevated plasma IL-1β and predisposed to severe chronic HF in Chinese.
