Influence of trem-1 gene polymorphisms on cytokine levels during malaria by Plasmodium vivax in a frontier area of the Brazilian Amazon. Cytokine 2023; 169:156264. [PMID: 37327529 DOI: 10.1016/j.cyto.2023.156264] [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: 01/29/2023] [Revised: 06/01/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The immunopathology during malaria depends on the level of inflammatory response generated. In this scenario, the TREM-1 has been associated with the severity of infectious diseases and could play an important role in the inflammatory course of malaria. We aimed to describe the allelic and genotypic frequency of four polymorphisms in the trem-1 gene in Plasmodium vivax-infected patients and to verify the association of these polymorphisms with clinical and immunological factors in a frontier area of the Brazilian Amazon. METHODS We included 76 individuals infected with P. vivax and 144 healthy controls living in the municipality of Oiapoque, Amapá, Brazil. The levels of TNF-α, IL-10, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, and IFN-γ were measured by flow cytometry, while IL-6, sTREM-1, and antibodies against PvMSP-119 were evaluated by ELISA. The SNPs were genotyped by qPCR technique. Polymorphisms analysis, allelic and genotype, frequencies, and HWE calculation were determined by x2 test in R Software. The association between the parasitemia, gametocytes, antibodies, cytokines, and sTREM-1 with the genotypes of malaria and control groups was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, these analyzes were conducted in SPSS Software, at 5% significance level. RESULTS All SNPs were successfully genotyped. Allelic and genotypic distribution was in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. Furthermore, several associations were identified between malaria and control groups, with increased levels of IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and IFN-γ in the infected individuals with rs6910730A, rs2234237T, rs2234246T, rs4711668C alleles compared to the homozygous wild-type and heterozygous genotypes of the controls (p-value < 0.05). No association was found for these SNPs and the levels of IL-2, and sTREM-1. CONCLUSIONS The SNPs on the trem-1 gene are associated with the effector molecules of the innate immunity and may contribute to the identification and effective participation of trem-1 in the modulation of the immune response. This association may be essential for the establishment of immunization strategies against malaria.

Abstract
Background Glioma is the main pathological subtype of brain tumors with high mortality. Objective This study aimed to elucidate the correlation between TREM1 variants and glioma risk in the Chinese Han population. Methods Genotyping of six variants of TREM1 was completed by Agena MassARRAY platform in 1061 subjects (503 controls and 558 glioma patients). The relationship between TREM1 polymorphisms and glioma risk was calculated using the logistic regression model, with odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method was performed to assess SNP-SNP interactions to predict glioma risk. Results In this research, overall analysis illustrated an association between TREM1 rs9369269 and an increased risk of glioma. Rs9369269 was also related to the risk of glioma in patients aged ≤40 years and females. Subjects with rs9369269 AC genotype were likely to obtain glioma compared to people with CC genotype (patients with astroglioma vs healthy people). Compared to TT genotype carriers, carriers with AT genotype of rs1351835 were significantly associated with overall survival (OS). Conclusion Taken together, the study identified the association between TREM1 variants and glioma risk and TREM1 variants were significantly associated with the prognosis of glioma. In the future, larger samples are needed to verify the results.

Abstract
Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) frequently accompanies early postoperative period after cardiac surgery and in some cases is complicated by multiple organ failure (MOF). Inherited variation in the innate immune response genes (e.g., TREM1) is among the major factors determining the development of SIRS and the risk of MOF. This research was aimed to study whether the polymorphisms within the TREM1 gene are associated with MOF after the coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Here we enrolled 592 patients who underwent CABG surgery in the Research Institute for Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases (Kemerovo, Russia) and documented 28 cases of MOF. Genotyping was performed by allele-specific PCR using TaqMan probes. In addition, we measured serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Five polymorphisms (rs1817537, rs2234246, rs3804277, rs7768162 andrs4711668) within the TREM1 gene were significantly associated with MOF. Patients with MOF had higher serum sTREM-1 as compared with those without MOF at both pre- and post-intervention stages. Serum sTREM-1 was associated with the rs1817537,rs2234246 and rs3804277 polymorphisms within the TREM1 gene. Minor alleles within the TREM1 gene define the level of serum sTREM-1 and are associated with MOF after CABG surgery.

TREM1 rs2234237 (Thr25Ser) Polymorphism in Patients with Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Caused by Leishmania guyanensis: A Case-Control Study in the State of Amazonas, Brazil. Pathogens 2021; 10:pathogens10040498. [PMID: 33924130 PMCID: PMC8074324 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens10040498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2021] [Revised: 04/06/2021] [Accepted: 04/14/2021] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Leishmaniasis is an infectious disease caused by Leishmania parasites. A Th1 immune response is necessary in the acute phase to control the pathogen. The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1 is a potent amplifier of inflammation. Our aim is to identify whether the TREM1 variant rs2234237 A/T (Thr25Ser) is associated with the disease development of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in Leishmania guyanensis-infected individuals. The effects of the rs2234237 genotypes on plasma cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, MCP-1 and TNF-α are also investigated. Methods: 838 patients with CL and 818 healthy controls (HCs) living in the same endemic areas were genotyped by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. Plasma cytokines were assayed in 400 patients with CL and 400 HCs using the BioPlex assay. Results: The genotypes’ and alleles’ frequencies were similar in both patients with CL (AA = 618, 74%; AT = 202, 24%; TT = 18, 2%) and in HCs (AA = 580, 71%; AT = 220, 27%; TT = 18, 2%). Rs2234237 showed a modest effect on plasma IL-10 that disappeared when correction of the p-value was applied. Plasma IL-10 by rs2234237 genotypes were (mean ± SEM; AA = 2.91 pg/mL ± 0.14; AT = 2.35 pg/mL ± 0.12; TT = 3.14 pg/mL ± 0.56; p = 0.05). Conclusion: The TREM1 rs2234237 (Thr25Ser) seems to have no influence on the susceptibility or resistance to L. guyanensis infections.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition and a significant challenge for those working in intensive care, where it remains one of the leading causes of mortality. According to the sepsis-3 definition, sepsis is characterized by dysregulation of the host response to infection. The TREM-1 gene codes for the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1, which is part of the pro-inflammatory response of the immune system. This study aimed to determine whether the functional TREM-1 rs2234237 single nucleotide polymorphism was associated with mortality in a cohort of 649 Caucasian patients with sepsis. The 90-day mortality rate was the primary outcome, and disease severity and microbiological findings were analyzed as secondary endpoints. TREM-1 rs2234237 TT homozygous patients were compared to A-allele carriers for this purpose. Kaplan⁻Meier survival analysis revealed no association between the clinically relevant TREM-1 rs2234237 single nucleotide polymorphism and the 90-day or 28-day survival rate in this group of septic patients. In addition, the performed analyses of disease severity and the microbiological findings did not show significant differences between the TREM-1 rs2234237 genotypes. The TREM-1 rs2234237 genotype was not significantly associated with sepsis mortality and sepsis disease severity. Therefore, it was not a valuable prognostic marker for the survival of septic patients in the studied cohort.

Soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1): a potential biomarker for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. Front Med 2017; 11:169-177.

Abstract
Sensitive and useful biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of infectious diseases have been widely developed. An example of these biomarkers is triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (TREM-1), which is a cell surface receptor expressed on monocytes/macrophages and neutrophils. TREM-1 amplifies inflammation by activating the TREM-1/DAP12 pathway. This pathway is triggered by the interaction of TREM-1 with ligands or stimulation by bacterial lipopolysaccharide. Consequently, pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines are secreted. Soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) is a special form of TREM-1 that can be directly tested in human body fluids and well-known biomarker for infectious diseases. sTREM-1 level can be potentially used for the early diagnosis and prognosis prediction of some infectious diseases, including infectious pleural effusion, lung infections, sepsis, bacterial meningitis, viral infections (e.g., Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever and dengue fever), fungal infections (e.g., Aspergillus infection), and burn-related infections. sTREM-1 is a more sensitive and specific biomarker than traditional indices, such as C-reactive protein and procalcitonin levels, for these infectious diseases. Therefore, sTREM-1 is a feasible biomarker for the targeted therapy and rapid and early diagnosis of infectious diseases.

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.

Abstract
Renal ischemia reperfusion (IR)-injury induces activation of innate immune response which sustains renal injury and contributes to the development of delayed graft function (DGF). Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a pro-inflammatory evolutionary conserved pattern recognition receptor expressed on a variety of innate immune cells. TREM-1 expression increases following acute and chronic renal injury. However, the function of TREM-1 in renal IR is still unclear. Here, we investigated expression and function of TREM-1 in a murine model of renal IR using different TREM-1 inhibitors: LP17, LR12 and TREM-1 fusion protein. In a human study, we analyzed the association of non-synonymous single nucleotide variants in the TREM1 gene in a cohort comprising 1263 matching donors and recipients with post-transplant outcomes, including DGF. Our findings demonstrated that, following murine IR, renal TREM-1 expression increased due to the influx of Trem1 mRNA expressing cells detected by in situ hybridization. However, TREM-1 interventions by means of LP17, LR12 and TREM-1 fusion protein did not ameliorate IR-induced injury. In the human renal transplant cohort, donor and recipient TREM1 gene variant p.Thr25Ser was not associated with DGF, nor with biopsy-proven rejection or death-censored graft failure. We conclude that TREM-1 does not play a major role during experimental renal IR and after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Local vascular immune response is primarily initiated via Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1). We previously showed that certain TLR and TREM-1 gene polymorphisms are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). Therefore, we hypothesized that these gene polymorphisms are associated with atherosclerosis severity. This study included 292 consecutive patients with CAD who were admitted to the Research Institute for Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases (Kemerovo, Russian Federation) during 2011–2012. Sample genotyping was performed in 96-well format using the TaqMan SNP genotyping assay. We found that C/C genotype of the rs3804099 polymorphism within TLR2 gene and T/T genotype of the rs4711668 polymorphism within TREM-1 gene were significantly associated with severe coronary atherosclerosis while C allele of the rs5743551 polymorphism within TLR1 gene, A/G genotype of the rs4986790 polymorphism and C/T genotype of the rs4986791 polymorphism within TLR4 gene, and C allele of the rs3775073 polymorphism within TLR6 gene were significantly associated with severe noncoronary atherosclerosis. However, A/A genotype of the rs5743810 polymorphism within TLR6 gene was significantly associated with mild noncoronary atherosclerosis. We conclude that certain TLR and TREM-1 gene polymorphisms are significantly associated with atherosclerosis severity in a Russian population. Rs3804099 polymorphism of TLR2 gene is associated with severe coronary atherosclerosis. Rs4711668 polymorphism of TREM-1 gene is associated with severe coronary atherosclerosis. Rs5743551 polymorphism of TLR1 gene is associated with severe noncoronary atherosclerosis. Rs4986790 and rs4986791 polymorphisms of TLR4 gene are associated with severe noncoronary atherosclerosis. Rs3775073 polymorphism of TLR6 gene is associated with severe noncoronary atherosclerosis.

Peng LS, Li J, Zhou GS, Deng LH, Yao HG. Relationships between genetic polymorphisms of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 and septic shock in a Chinese Han population. World J Emerg Med 2015; 6:123-30. [PMID: 26056543 DOI: 10.5847/wjem.j.1920-8642.2015.02.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2014] [Accepted: 02/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is a cell surface receptor expressed on neutrophils and monocytes. TREM-1 acts to amplify inflammation and serves as a critical mediator of inflammatory response in the context of sepsis. To date, the predisposition of TREM-1 gene polymorphisms to septic shock has not been reported. This study was designed to investigate whether TREM-1 genomic variations are associated with the development of septic shock. METHODS We genotyped two TREM-1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, rs2234237 and rs2234246) and evaluated the relationships between these SNPs and septic shock on susceptibility and prognosis. RESULTS TREM-1 rs2234246 A allele in the promoter region was significantly associated with the susceptibility of septic shock in recessive model (AA, OR=3.10, 95%CI 1.15 to 8.32, P=0.02), and in codominant model (AG, OR=0.72, 95%CI 0.43-1.19, P=0.02; AA, OR=2.71, 95%CI 1.00-7.42; P=0.03). However, in three inherited models (dominant model, recessive model, and codominant model), none of the assayed loci was significantly associated with the prognosis of septic shock. The non-survivor group demonstrated higher plasma IL-6 levels (99.7±34.7 pg/mL vs. 61.2±26.5 pg/mL, P<0.01) than the survivor group. Plasma concentrations of IL-6 among the three genotypes of rs2234246 were AA 99.4±48.9 pg/mL, AG 85.4±43 pg/mL, and GG 65.3±30.7 pg/mL (P<0.01). The plasma concentrations of IL-6 in patients with AA genotypes were significantly higher than those in patients with GG genotypes (P<0.01). CONCLUSION TREM-1 genetic polymorphisms rs2234246 may be significantly correlated only with susceptibility to septic shock in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
Sepsis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients worldwide and based on studies, 30–40% of all cases of severe sepsis and septic shock results from the blood stream infections (BSIs). Identifying of the disease, performing laboratory tests, and consequently treatment are factors that required for optimum management of BSIs. In addition, applying precise and immediate identification of the etiologic agent is a prerequisite for specific antibiotic therapy of pathogen and thereby decreasing mortality rates. The diagnosis of sepsis is difficult because clinical signs of sepsis often overlap with other noninfectious cases of systemic inflammation. BSIs are usually diagnosed by performing a series of techniques such as blood cultures, polymerase chain reaction-based methods, and biomarkers of sepsis. Extremely time-consuming even to take up to several days is a major limitation of conventional methods. In addition, yielding false-negative results due to fastidious and slow-growing microorganisms and also in case of antibiotic pretreated samples are other limitations. In comparison, molecular methods are capable of examining a blood sample obtained from suspicious patient with BSI and gave the all required information to prescribing antimicrobial therapy for detected bacterial or fungal infections immediately. Because of an emergency of sepsis, new methods are being developed. In this review, we discussed about the most important sepsis diagnostic methods and numbered the advantage and disadvantage of the methods in detail.

Abstract
Infective endocarditis (IE) is an inflammatory condition of the lining of the heart chambers and valves, which is generally caused by bacteria. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREMs) are key effectors of the innate system that play a significant role in the recognition of infectious agents, particularly, bacteria. We hypothesised that inherited variation in TLR and TREM-1 genes may affect individual susceptibility to IE. The distribution of genotypes and alleles of the TLR1 (rs5743551, rs5743611), TLR2 (rs3804099, rs5743708), TLR4 (rs4986790, rs4986791), TLR6 (rs3775073, rs5743810), and TREM-1 (rs1817537, rs3804277, rs6910730, rs7768162, rs2234246, rs4711668, rs9471535, rs2234237) gene polymorphisms was investigated in 110 Caucasian (Russian) subjects with IE and 300 age-, sex-, and ethnicity-matched healthy blood donors. Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated. We found that C/C genotype of the rs3775073 polymorphism within TLR6 gene was associated with a decreased risk of IE (OR=0.51, 95% CI=0.26-0.97, P=0.032) according to the recessive model; however, we observed no association between the other investigated SNPs within TLR and TREM-1 genes and IE. Further in-depth investigations in this field are necessary to shed the light on the impact of inherited variation within innate immune response genes on the development of IE.

Association of TLR and TREM-1 gene polymorphisms with risk of coronary artery disease in a Russian population. Gene 2014; 550:101-9.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis, manifesting itself as acute coronary syndrome, stroke, and peripheral arterial diseases, is a chronic progressive inflammatory disease which is driven by responses of both innate and adaptive immunity. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells-1 (TREM-1) are important effectors of the innate immune system, and polymorphisms within genes encoding them may increase risk of occurrence of various pathologies including cardiovascular disorders. Thus, we carried out a genetic association study on the sample of 702 consecutive Caucasian (Russian) patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and 300 age-, sex-, and ethnicity-matched healthy controls. We revealed that the C/C genotype of the TLR1 rs5743551 polymorphism was significantly associated with a reduced risk of CAD according to the recessive model (OR=0.41, 95% CI=0.20-0.84, P=0.017, adjusted by age and gender). Concerning TREM-1 gene polymorphisms, we found that A/A genotype of the rs2234237 polymorphism, the G/G genotype of the rs6910730 polymorphism, the C/C genotype of the rs9471535 polymorphism, and the T/T genotype of the rs4711668 polymorphism were significantly associated with elevated CAD risk according to the recessive model (OR=5.52, 95% CI=1.17-25.98, P=0.011; OR=4.28, 95% CI=1.09-16.81, P=0.021; OR=5.55, 95% CI=1.18-26.09, P=0.011, and OR=1.66, 95% CI=1.10-2.52, P=0.014, respectively, adjusted by age and gender). Conversely, the G allele of the rs1817537 polymorphism, the T allele of the rs2234246 polymorphism, and the T allele of the rs3804277 polymorphism significantly correlated with similarly decreased risk of CAD according to the dominant model (OR=0.57, 95% CI=0.40-0.81, P=0.0013; OR=0.59, 95% CI=0.42-0.84, P=0.003, and OR=0.58, 95% CI=0.41-0.81, P=0.0014, respectively, adjusted by age and gender). We conclude that certain TLR and TREM-1 gene polymorphisms may be associated with CAD in Russian population; however, their significance as predictive and pathogenic markers of CAD should be interpreted with caution in other populations.

Abstract
This study explored the association of sepsis prognosis with dynamic changes in serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) and its polymorphisms. We enrolled 80 subjects with sepsis and 80 controls. Serum sTREM-1 was tested on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 14. PCR sequencing was performed to detect TREM-1 genetic variation on its four exons. sTREM-1 levels were significantly higher in the nonsurvivor than in the survivor group (p < 0.001), and those at each time point were the same (p ≤ 0.001). Of the three tested TREM-1 SNPs (rs144672509, rs2234237, and rs2234246), only rs2234237 (Ser25Thr) was significantly associated with sepsis prognosis in three inheritance models (p < 0.05). However, there was no relationship between TREM-1 polymorphism and dynamic concentration of sTREM-1. Logistic regression showed that sTREM-1, APACHE II, and rs2234237 polymorphism are risk factors for prognosis. Dynamic changes in serum sTREM-1 and rs2234237 polymorphism could be used in sepsis prognosis assessment.

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
AIMS Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) has been shown to play a crucial role in the propagation of inflammatory responses. Recent studies have reported that TREM-1 expression is up-regulated in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therefore, we investigated the associations between TREM-1 genetic polymorphisms and IBD development and its phenotypes in the Korean population. MAIN METHODS Three TREM-1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, rs2234237, rs3789205, and rs9471535) were genotyped by Taqman technology on 202 Crohn's disease (CD), 265 ulcerative colitis (UC), 138 with intestinal Behcet's disease (BD), and 234 healthy controls and the relationships between these SNPs and IBD development and phenotypes were evaluated. KEY FINDINGS We found that TREM-1 SNPs are significantly associated with the development of intestinal Behcet's disease (rs9471535: odds ratio [OR]=1.637, P=0.025; rs3789205: OR=1.668, P=0.019; rs2234237: OR=1.691, P=0.016), and in particular with skin involvement (rs9471535: OR=2.723, P=0.009; rs3789205: OR=2.477, P=0.017; rs2234237: OR=2.278, P=0.030) and the risk of azathioprine use (rs9471535: OR=2.722, P=0.021; rs3789205: OR=2.493, P=0.032; rs2234237: OR=2.638, P=0.026). However, TREM-1 SNPs were not significantly associated with the development of Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. SIGNIFICANCE The results of our study suggest that TREM-1 SNPs may play a significant role in the development of intestinal Behcet's disease and may have modest effects on disease severity.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE Clinical investigations into postoperative intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) have indicated interindividual differences in fentanyl consumption. Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is the main metabolism enzyme of fentanyl, and single nucleotide polymorphisms within the CYP3A4 gene may contribute to the variability of fentanyl analgesic efficacy. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the most common genetic variation in Chinese, CYP3A4*1G, has an impact on the fentanyl consumption for intravenous PCA in Chinese Han women undergone abdominal total hysterectomy. METHODS A total of 79 female patients (American Society of Anesthesiologist physical status I or II) scheduled to undergo elective abdominal total hysterectomy were enrolled. All patients received combined spinal-epidural anaesthesia with bupivacaine. Intravenous fentanyl PCA was provided postoperatively for satisfactory analgesia. The doses of fentanyl consumption were recorded 2, 4, 24 and 48 h after the initiation of PCA postoperatively. Pain at rest and adverse effects were measured with rating scales. CYP3A4*1G was screened by means of direct sequencing and further confirmed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Forty-six patients were GG homozygotes, 27 patients were GA heterozygotes, and six patients were AA homozygotes, respectively. The distribution of the CYP3A4*1G allele was consistent with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0·05). At 2 and 4 h, the doses of fentanyl required for patients with GA/AA genotypes were 80·0 (45·0, 112·5) μg and 120·0 (80, 173·8)μg, respectively, and significantly lower than those for GG homozygotes [91·3 (80·0, 125·0) μg and 169·0 (112·5, 226·3) μg, respectively, P<0·05]. There was trend of decreasing fentanyl consumption at 24 and 48h in patients with GA/AA genotypes, relative to GG homozygotes, but the difference was not statistical significant (P>0·05). WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSIONS CYP3A4*1G has an impact on the analgesic effect of fentanyl in Chinese Han subjects. Further validation of our results in a well-powered study would be helpful.

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
Alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, a kind of ligand-gated ion channel mainly expressed in macrophages, plays a crucial role in improving survival in sepsis via suppressing proinflammatory cytokines. The predisposition of genomic polymorphisms within alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene (CHRNA7) to sepsis has not been investigated. The current association study was performed to analyse six common genetic variations within 5'-upstream region of CHRNA7 gene in 229 patients with severe sepsis and 267 controls. Neither allelic frequencies nor genotype distributions were significantly different between patients and controls, as well as between surviving and nonsurviving patients. The frequencies of estimated haplotypes were also comparable between above defined groups. The present study suggests that genomic polymorphisms in the 5'-upstream region of CHRNA7 gene may not be a major risk factor for severe sepsis in Chinese Han population.
