Consolidating data on the association of IL-6 and IL-10 polymorphisms with the development of glaucoma: a meta-analysis. Ophthalmic Genet 2024:1-11. [PMID: 38602069 DOI: 10.1080/13816810.2024.2336964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed to investigate the association of IL-6 and IL-10 polymorphisms with susceptibility to glaucoma by analyzing all relevant individual studies. MATERIALS AND METHODS Relevant articles were gathered from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, WanFang, and CNKI databases up to 15 October 2023. Odds ratios (ORs) were used to evaluate the association strengths, along with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS Seven case-control studies involving 1408 cases and 1789 controls on the IL-6 -174 G>C polymorphism, and three studies with 675 cases and 1100 controls on the IL-6 -572 G>C were included. Moreover, three separate studies, each comprising 442 cases and 672 controls, investigated the IL-10 -592C>A, -819T>C, and -1082A>G polymorphisms. The combined data indicated a significant association between -592C>A, -819T>C, and -1082A>G at IL-10 gene and IL-6 -572 G>C with glaucoma susceptibility, with no correlation found for IL-6 -174 G>C. CONCLUSIONS The study found that IL-10 -592C>A, -819T>C, -1082A>G, and IL-6 -572 G>C polymorphisms were linked to glaucoma risk. However, no significant association was observed for IL-6 -174 G>C. These findings imply a possible connection between genetic variations in these genes and glaucoma risk. Further research is crucial to fully understand the underlying mechanisms and their significance in managing and preventing glaucoma.

Association between glaucoma susceptibility with combined defects in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid beta oxidation. Mol Aspects Med 2024; 96:101238. [PMID: 38215610 DOI: 10.1016/j.mam.2023.101238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2024]
Abstract
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of visual impairment and blindness worldwide, and is characterized by the progressive damage of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and the atrophy of the optic nerve head (ONH). The exact cause of RGC loss and optic nerve damage in glaucoma is not fully understood. The high energy demands of these cells imply a higher sensitivity to mitochondrial defects. Moreover, it has been postulated that the optic nerve is vulnerable towards damage from oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. To investigate this further, we conducted a pooled analysis of mitochondrial variants related to energy production, specifically focusing on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO). Our findings revealed that patients carrying non-synonymous (NS) mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants within the OXPHOS complexes had an almost two-fold increased risk of developing glaucoma. Regarding FAO, our results demonstrated that longer-chain acylcarnitines (AC) tended to decrease, while shorter-chain AC tended to increase in patients with glaucoma. Furthermore, we observed that the knocking down cpt1a (a key rate-limiting enzyme involved in FAO) in zebrafish induced a degenerative process in the optic nerve and RGC, which resembled the characteristics observed in glaucoma. In conclusion, our study provides evidence that genes encoding mitochondrial proteins involved in energy metabolisms, such as OXPHOS and FAO, are associated with glaucoma. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying glaucoma pathogenesis and may offer potential targets for therapeutic interventions in the future.

A systematic proteomic profiling and pathway analysis of protein biomarkers in diabetic retinopathy with subsequent validation of the IL-6 upstream regulator. J Diabetes Metab Disord 2023; 22:801-815.

Abstract
Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. Identifying risk factors associated with DR development and progression is crucial for improving treatment efficacy. Although proteomic changes in DR have been extensively studied, the results remain equivocal. Hence, this study aims to summarize and identify potential diagnostic or prognostic markers for DR. In addition, the upstream regulator responsible for protein deregulation of this disease was also validated. Methods We systematically analyzed the current literature on proteomic profile changes in DR, followed by pathway analysis identification. To validate the protein level changes, ELISA was performed from serum samples collected from 27 patients with DR and 25 healthy controls. Results Our analysis revealed that 1 candidate marker (afamin [AFM]) distinguished non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) from type 2 diabetic patients with no diabetic retinopathy/controls, 65 candidate markers distinguished proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) from NPDR, 1 candidate marker (thyroid receptor-interacting protein 11 [TRIP11]) distinguished PDR from PDR-DME/DME, and 3 candidate markers for therapeutic evaluation of PDR. Our results pinpoint that inflammatory response, which IL-6 mainly modulated, is responsible for the changes of proteomic profiles identified in DR. This was also validated by ELISA analysis, indicating that IL-6 could be potentially useful for diagnosing DR. Conclusion We report a comprehensive patient-based proteomic approach to identify potential biomarkers for DR diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment evaluation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate systemic trans-signalling of interleukin (IL)-6 in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). METHODS Fifty-one POAG patients and 47 matched healthy controls were enrolled. Serum concentrations of IL-6, sIL-6R, and sgp130 were quantified. RESULTS Serum levels of IL-6, sIL-6R, and IL-6/sIL-6R ratios in the POAG group were significantly higher than those in control group, while only the sgp130/sIL-6R/IL-6 ratio was decreased. Among POAG subjects, advanced-stage patients exhibited significantly higher intraocular pressure (IOP), serum IL-6 and sgp130 levels, and IL-6/sIL-6R ratio than those in the early to moderate stage. The ROC curve analysis revealed that the IL-6 level and IL-6/sIL-6R ratio performed better than other parameters in diagnosing POAG and discriminating POAG severity. Serum IL-6 level was moderately correlated with IOP and C/D ratio, while a weak correlation was observed between sIL-6R levels with C/D ratio. IL-6 and sIL-6R levels were correlated with each other in POAG patients but not in healthy controls. CONCLUSION Overstimulation of systemic IL-6 trans-signalling has been implicated in POAG.

Abstract
Introduction: Pro-inflammatory cytokines are important contributors to dry eye disease (DED). The cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 has become a therapeutic target in several DED drug studies. This randomized controlled trial aimed to determine the effectiveness of topical cyclosporin-A 0.1% compared to the combination of topical cyclosporin-A 0.1% and sodium hyaluronate in reducing tear IL-6 levels in DED patients. Methods: The participants were 20 patients, each with two eyes, who had moderate-to-severe DED. Before and after treatment, the clinical degree of DED was examined in each group, using ocular surface disease index (OSDI) scores, tear break-up time (TBUT), fluorescent tests, and Schirmer I tests. In addition, tear samples were taken to examine IL-6 levels through the ELISA method. The results were analyzed using the t-test, Wilcoxon test, and Mann–Whitney test. The correlation between tear IL-6 levels and the severity of DED was analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Results: The study showed a significantly lower tear IL-6 level, OSDI score, and degree of ocular staining after either topical cyclosporin-A 0.1% or a combination of topical cyclosporin-A 0.1% and sodium hyaluronate (all values p < 0.05). Conclusions: The combination therapy was superior in reducing tear IL-6 levels. In addition, a correlation existed between tear IL-6 levels and the severity of DED based on the TBUT, although it was weak and not statistically significant.

Abstract
Elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for neurodegeneration in glaucoma. Glial cells, which play an important role in normal functioning of retinal neurons, are well involved into retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration in experimental glaucoma animal models generated by elevated IOP. In response to elevated IOP, mGluR I is first activated and Kir4.1 channels are subsequently inhibited, which leads to the activation of Müller cells. Müller cell activation is followed by a complex process, including proliferation, release of inflammatory and growth factors (gliosis). Gliosis is further regulated by several factors. Activated Müller cells contribute to RGC degeneration through generating glutamate receptor-mediated excitotoxicity, releasing cytotoxic factors and inducing microglia activation. Elevated IOP activates microglia, and following morphological and functional changes, these cells, as resident immune cells in the retina, show adaptive immune responses, including an enhanced release of pro-inflammatory factors (tumor neurosis factor-α, interleukins, etc.). These ATP and Toll-like receptor-mediated responses are further regulated by heat shock proteins, CD200R, chemokine receptors, and metabotropic purinergic receptors, may aggravate RGC loss. In the optic nerve head, astrogliosis is initiated and regulated by a complex reaction process, including purines, transmitters, chemokines, growth factors and cytokines, which contributes to RGC axon injury through releasing pro-inflammatory factors and changing extracellular matrix in glaucoma. The effects of activated glial cells on RGCs are further modified by the interplay among different types of glial cells. This review is concluded by presenting an in-depth discussion of possible research directions in this field in the future.

Abstract
Background The increased global incidence of myopia requires the establishment of therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Fallopia Japonica (FJ) and Prunella vulgaris (PV) extract on myopia caused by monocular form deprivation (MFD). Methods We used human retinal pigment epithelial cell to study the molecular mechanisms on how FJ extract (FJE) and PV extract (PVE) lowering the inflammation of the eye. The effect of FJE and PVE in MFD induced hamster model and explore the role of inflammation cytokines in myopia. Results FJE + PVE reduced IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α expression in RPE cells. Furthermore, FJE and PVE inhibited inflammation by attenuating the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (AKT), and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B (NF-κB) pathway. In addition, we report two resveratrol + ursolic acid compounds from FJ and PV and their inhibitory activities against IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α expression levels in RPE cells treated with IL-6 and TNF-α. FJE, PVE, and FJE + PVE were applied to MFD hamsters and their axial length was measured after 21 days. The axial length showed statistically significant differences between phosphate-buffered saline- and FJE-, PVE-, and FJE + PVE-treated MFD eyes. FJE + PVE suppressed expressions of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. They also inhibited myopia-related transforming growth factor-beta (TGF)-β1, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, and NF-κB expression while increasing type I collagen expression. Conclusions Overall, these results suggest that FJE + PVE may have a therapeutic effect on myopia and be used as a potential treatment option.

Abstract
PURPOSE Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a proinflammatory cytokine with pleiotropic effects which has been related to primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) due to its particular effect of protecting the retinal ganglion cells (RGc) from the apoptosis. Different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) have been associated with POAG. The aim of this study was to determine whether an association between IL-6 rs1800795 (-174 G>C) SNP and a higher risk for POAG is present in western Mexican population. METHODS One hundred and sixty-five unrelated Mexican mestizo patients with POAG and 108 control subjects were included. Genomic DNA was extracted from leukocytes and purified, followed by genotyping and amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with Taqman Biosystem probes. Allelic and genotypic diversity was evaluated between cases and control subjects. RESULTS There was no statistically significant association between allele and genotype frequencies, neither with dominant nor recessive genetic association models (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Even though there is a role of IL6 in the pathophysiology of POAG, our results ruled out the association between IL-6 and the rs1800795 SNP showing not to be an index of higher risk for POAG in Mexican population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dopamine replacement therapy remains the gold standard for symptomatic management of Parkinson's disease worldwide. However, most patients will develop debilitating motor levodopa-induced complications (MLIC) in the form of levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) and/or motor fluctuations (MF). This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the pharmacogenetic association between LID and MF with common genetic variants of the dopamine metabolic and signaling pathways. METHODS A meta-analysis was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines. Extracted studies include case-control studies evaluating the association between SLC6A3/DAT rs28363170 and rs393795; COMT rs4680 and rs4633; MAO-B rs1799836, BDNF rs6265, DRD1 rs4532, DRD2 rs1800497, DRD3 rs6280, and DRD5 rs6283 polymorphisms; and the overall risk of MLIC and its subtypes LID or MF. Genotypic frequency were tested for deviation from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE), and the genetic association was examined using the allelic (a vs. A), recessive (aa vs. Aa + AA), dominant (aa + Aa vs. AA), overdominant (Aa vs. aa + AA), homozygous (aa vs. AA), and heterozygous (Aa vs. AA and aa vs. aA) models. RESULTS Fourteen studies were included in the meta-analysis. A significant association was found between COMT rs46809 polymorphisms with LID but not MF, with the association observable in Asians but not Caucasians. In Asians, the COMT rs4633 was significantly associated with the occurrence of both LID and MF. The MAO-B rs1799836 was associated with both MF and LID. Among all the dopamine receptor genes analyzed, only DRD2 exhibited an association with LID. No association was observed between the SLC6AT/DAT and BDNF genes with either LID or MF. CONCLUSION Strong associations were observed between polymorphisms of genes regulating dopamine metabolism with the occurrence of LID and/or MF. The MAO-B rs1799836 may be potential for use as a general pharmacogenetic marker of MLIC, while the COMT rs4680 and rs4633 may be used as markers of LID in Asian ethnicities.

Abstract
Ageing is an unavoidable multi-factorial process, characterised by a gradual decrease in physiological functionality and increasing vulnerability of the organism to environmental factors and pathogens, ending, eventually, in death. One of the most elaborated ageing theories implies a direct connection between ROS-mediated mtDNA damage and mutations. In this review, we focus on the role of mitochondrial metabolism, mitochondria generated ROS, mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy in normal ageing and pathological conditions, such as inflammation. Also, a chronic form of inflammation, which could change the long-term status of the immune system in an age-dependent way, is discussed. Finally, the role of inflammaging in the most common neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, is also discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the performance of serum cytokine IL-6 and IL-6/IL-10 ratio as biomarkers for the diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and for determining its progression. METHODS In this study, 20 POAG patients and 21 healthy individuals from the Indonesian population were enrolled. The serum concentration of IL-6 and IL-10 were quantified. Comparative analysis was performed in addition to assessment of the diagnostic performance of cytokines using receiver-operating-curve (ROC) analysis. RESULTS POAG patients had a higher IL-6 (p < 0.0001) and IL-6/IL-10 ratio (p < 0.0001) than controls. Among the POAG subjects, advanced-stage patients exhibited a higher IL-6/IL-10 ratio than those in the early-moderate stage (p = 0.001; p = 0.006). The ROC curve analysis showed that both IL-6 level and IL-6/IL-10 ratio exhibited an excellent capability of diagnosing POAG (cut-off of 20.5 pg/mL (100% sensitivity and 94% specificity) and 4.4 (88% sensitivity and 94% specificity), respectively). Serum IL-6/IL-10 ratio displayed a better performance than IL-6 in discriminating POAG severity with cut-off of at least 6.6 (sensitivity of 86% and specificity of 90%) and 9.1 (sensitivity of 89% and specificity of 78%) classified according to C/D ratio and MD of VF, respectively. CONCLUSION The balance between IL-6 and IL-10 serum levels is potentially useful in discriminating POAG severity.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the accuracy parameters of seven commercial molecular in vitro diagnostic tests for detecting SARS-CoV-2. Methods: Studies evaluating the accuracy of seven different commercial molecular diagnostic tests for detecting SARS-CoV-2 (Cepheid Xpert Xpress SARS-CoV-2 test, Simplexa COVID-19 Direct, Abbott ID NOW COVID-19, Cobas SARS-CoV-2, Allplex 2019-nCoV Assay, Panther Fusion SARS-CoV-2, and BioFire COVID-19 Test) were included. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the QUADAS-2 checklist. A bivariate random-effects regression model was implemented.. Results: Meta-analysis of 12 included studies showed that the performances of commercial COVID-19 molecular in vitro diagnostic tests were high, with a summary sensitivity of 95.9% (95% CI 93.9–97.2%, I2 = 60.22%) and specificity of 97.2% (95% CI 95.5–98.3%, I2 = 56.66%). Among seven evaluated tests, the Abbott ID NOW COVID-19 and Simplexa COVID-19 Direct displayed lower sensitivity (91.6%, 95% CI 80.5–96.6% and 92%, 95% CI 86.2–95.5, respectively). Conclusion: All evaluated tests showed good accuracy. However, the slightly lower sensitivity observed in the Abbott ID Now COVID-19 and Simplexa COVID-19 Direct should be considered when deciding on a test platform. Moreover, the diagnostic accuracy of COVID-19 commercial diagnostic tests should be weighed against their ease of use and speed.

Abstract
Estrogen is a female sex steroid hormone that plays a significant role in physiological functions. Evidence suggests that estrogen-signaling pathways are closely linked to cancer development and progression. The novel G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER or GPR30) has been shown to influence cancer predisposition and progression, although results of related studies remain equivocal. Thus, this meta-analysis aimed to estimate the relationship between GPER gene polymorphisms and GPER expression levels, with cancer predisposition and progression. The pooled results showed that two GPER polymorphisms, rs3808350 and rs3808351, were significantly associated with cancer predisposition, especially in the Asian population, but no significant association was detected for rs11544331. In parallel, we also found that cancer aggressiveness and progression correlated with rs3808351 and GPER expression in cancerous tissues. Altogether, our findings suggest that GPER plays a pivotal role in cancer pathogenesis and progression. We suggest that rs3808350 and rs3808351 may be used as a prospective biomarker for cancer screening; while rs3808351 and GPER expression can be used to examine the prognosis of patients with cancer. Further biological studies are warranted to confirm our findings.
