Impact of Interleukin-17 Receptor A Gene Variants on Asthma Susceptibility and Clinical Manifestations in Children and Adolescents. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 11:657. [PMID: 38929236 PMCID: PMC11202101 DOI: 10.3390/children11060657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/26/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in multiple interleukin receptor genes could be associated with asthma risk and/or phenotype. Interleukin-17 (IL-17) has been implicated in tissue inflammation and autoimmune diseases. As no previous studies have uncovered the potential role of IL17 receptor A (RA) gene variants in asthma risk, we aimed to explore the association of four IL17RA SNPs (i.e., rs4819554A/G, rs879577C/T, rs41323645G/A, and rs4819555C/T) with asthma susceptibility/phenotype in our region. TaqMan allelic discrimination analysis was used to genotype 192 individuals. We found that the rs4819554 G/G genotype significantly reduced disease risk in the codominant (OR = 0.15, 95%CI = 0.05-0.45, p < 0.001), dominant (OR = 0.49, 95%CI = 0.26-0.93, p = 0.028), and recessive (OR = 0.18, 95%CI = 0.07-0.52, p < 0.001) models. Similarly, rs879577 showed reduced disease risk associated with the T allele across all genetic models. However, the A allele of rs41323645 was associated with increased disease risk in all models. The G/A and A/A genotypes have higher ORs of 2.47 (95%CI = 1.19-5.14) and 3.86 (95%CI = 1.62-9.18), respectively. Similar trends are observed in the dominant 2.89 (95%CI = 1.47-5.68, p = 0.002) and recessive 2.34 (95%CI = 1.10-4.98, p = 0.025) models. For the rs4819555 variant, although there was no significant association identified under any models, carriers of the rs4819554*A demonstrated an association with a positive family history of asthma (71.4% in carriers vs. 27% in non-carriers; p = 0.025) and the use of relievers for >2 weeks (52.2% of carriers vs. 28.8% of non-carriers; p = 0.047). Meanwhile, the rs4819555*C carriers displayed a significant divergence in the asthma phenotype, specifically atopic asthma (83.3% vs. 61.1%; p = 0.007), showed a higher prevalence of chest tightness (88.9% vs. 61.5%; p = 0.029), and were more likely to report comorbidities (57.7% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.003). The most frequent haplotype in the asthma group was ACAC, with a frequency of 22.87% vs. 1.36% in the controls (p < 0.001). In conclusion, the studied IL17RA variants could be essential in asthma susceptibility and phenotype in children and adolescents.

Abstract
Genetic factors play a crucial role in the immune response of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and juvenile-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE). This study aimed to investigate the association of IL12B (rs3212227, rs6887695) and IL17 (rs2275913, rs763780) gene polymorphisms with the susceptibility of JIA and JSLE in Chinese children. A total of 303 healthy controls and 304 patients including 160 JIA and 144 patients were analyzed, and the genetic polymorphisms were genotyped by using a Sequenom MassArray system. There was a significant association between the IL12B rs3212227 genotype and the increased risk of JSLE (P = .01). For rs6887695, the minor allele C was significantly associated with the increased risk of JIA (odds ratio = 1.48, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.12-1.95, P = .005). Moreover, rs6887695 genotype was significantly associated with both JIA and JSLE susceptibility (P < .05). Besides, IL12B haplotype GC significantly associated with the increased risk of JIA (P = .016). However, no significant difference was found between the IL17 (rs2275913, rs763780) gene polymorphisms and JIA or JSLE susceptibility (P > .05). And similar genotype distributions of IL12B and IL17 polymorphisms were found between the patients with nephritis and without nephritis in JSLE (P > .05). Our results indicated that IL12B polymorphisms was associated with an increased risk for the development of JIA and JSLE in Chinese children, highlighting the involvement of inflammation in the pathogenesis of JIA and JSLE. Moreover, there was a risk haplotype in IL12B which could increase the risk of JIA.

Investigation of the relationship between IL17A, IL17F and ILR1N polymorphisms and COVID-19 severity: The predictive role of IL17A rs2275913 polymorphism in the clinical course of COVID-19. Int J Immunogenet 2023; 50:117-126. [PMID: 37052545 DOI: 10.1111/iji.12619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023]
Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Although the mortality rate of the disease has been relatively under control as of 2022, more than 15 million confirmed COVID-19 cases have been detected in Turkey to date, causing more than 100,000 deaths. The clinical manifestation of the disease varies widely, ranging from asymptomatic to acute respiratory distress syndrome causing death. The immune response mechanisms have an important impact on the fine adjustment between healing and enhanced tissue damage. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the variants of the interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL1RN), interleukin 17A (IL17A), and interleukin 17F (IL17F) genes and COVID-19 severity. The study population comprised 202 confirmed COVID-19 cases divided into three groups according to severity. The IL1RN variable number of a tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and IL17A rs2275913, IL17F rs763780 and rs2397084 polymorphisms were genotyped by the PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between IL17A rs2275913 variant and COVID-19 severity. The AA genotype and the A allele of IL17A rs2275913 were found significant in the severe group. Additionally, we found a significant relationship between haplotype frequency distributions and severity of COVID-19 for the IL17F rs763780/rs2397084 (p = 0.044) and a combination of IL17F rs763780/rs2397084/ IL17A rs2275913 (p = 0.04). The CG and CGA haplotype frequencies were significantly higher in the severe group. IL17A rs2275913, IL17F rs763780 and rs2397084 variants appear to have important effects on the immune response in COVID-19. In conclusion, variants of IL17A rs2275913, IL17F rs763780 and rs2397084 may be the predictive markers for the clinical course and potential immunomodulatory treatment options in COVID-19, a disease that has placed a significant burden on our country.

Abstract
Background: The sodium may aggravate synovial inflammation and cartilage thinning. This incidence can cause joint pain and reduce functional activity. Not many people know the effect of sodium on the incidence of OA.
Objective: This study aims to determine the relationship between sodium in the body and knee joint pain which results in functional activity.
Methods: The quantitative descriptive study used accidental sampling. The study was conducted at three outpatient polyclinic orthopedics of hospitals and was approved by the Health Ethics Committee. All data were collected during the interview. The Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) and the Nutrisurvey Indonesia 2007 application were used as a tool to collect daily sodium intake (mg). Knee joint pain score was measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) while functional body activity was measured using the Western Ontario McMaster Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC). The Pearson and Spearman test (p<0.05) were used as a correlation test.
Results: 80 subjects were according to the inclusion criteria. Characteristics of the subjects were pre-elderly (32, 40%), women (74, 92.5%), BMI≥ 30 kg/m2 (54, 67.5%) and occupation (43, 53.75%). Average sodium intake = 2090.78 ± 1084.33 mg, VAS score = 6.28 ± 1.95 and WOMAC score = 32.65 ± 14.88. The correlation sodium, VAS, and WOMAC were not significant (p=0.196, p=0.372).
Conclusions: Increased sodium intake is not associated with knee joint pain and functional body activity.

Abstract
Objectives
This study aims to assess the serum and synovial fluid (SF) levels of interleukin (IL)-17A in primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients and to study their correlations with functional status, pain, and disease severity. Patients and methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2017 and March 2018 and it included 70 patients (46 males, 24 females; mean age 57.3±10.0 years; range 34 to 76 years) with primary KOA and 30 age-, sex-, and body mass index-matched healthy individuals (20 males, 10 females; mean age 53.3±10.3 years; range, 35 to 70 years). Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC), visual analog scale (VAS), Lequesne index, and Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) grading scale were used for assessment of the disease. IL-17A levels were measured in the serum for patients and healthy controls, and in SF for patients only using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results
Serum levels of IL-17A were significantly higher in KOA patients than controls (p=0.04). A positive correlation was found between serum and SF IL-17A levels. Serum and SF IL-17A levels had positive correlations with VAS, WOMAC pain score, Lequesne pain score, WOMAC function score, and Lequesne index. SF IL-17A levels had strong positive correlations with radiographic severity (KL grade) and duration of OA. Conclusion
Higher IL-17A levels in primary KOA patients were significantly associated with longer disease duration, higher pain scores, worse quality of life, extreme disability, and advanced structural damage. Therapeutics that target IL-17A warrant further investigation.

Abstract
IL-17A and IL-17F together with their coreceptor (IL-17RA/RC) were reported to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of spondyloarthritis. The group of axial spondyloarthritis comprises ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a rheumatic disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints in the spine. This study is aimed at investigating IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-17RA, and IL-17RC polymorphisms as potential biomarkers of disease susceptibility, clinical parameters, and anti-TNF treatment outcome in a cohort of Polish ankylosing spondylitis patients. In total, 328 subjects, including 138 AS patients and 190 healthy volunteers, participated in the study. Genotyping of IL-17A rs2275913 (G/A), IL-17F rs763780 (A/G), IL-17RA rs4819554 (A/G), and IL-17RC rs708567 (G/A) was performed on real-time PCR instrument using LightSNiP assays. No significant differences were revealed in genotype and allele distribution between patients and controls despite the association of the IL-17RC rs708567 AA homozygosity with the earlier onset of the disease. Moreover, some relationships between IL-17F rs763780 and IL-17RA rs4819554 polymorphisms with clinical parameters related to the disease activity and anti-TNF treatment outcome were observed. IL-17F rs763780 G allele was found to be associated with high disease activity and BASDAI after 6 months and poor response to the treatment while higher VAS values were more common among IL-17RA rs4819554 G variant carriers. In conclusion, the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism should be considered as a promising biomarker of disease activity and anti-TNF treatment outcome. The IL-17RA rs48419554 G allele may serve as a potential marker of disease severity in Polish AS patients.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a common cause of disability worldwide. Although commonly referred to as a disease of the joint cartilage, osteoarthritis affects all joint tissues equally. The pathogenesis of this degenerative process is not completely understood; however, a low-grade inflammation leading to an imbalance between anabolic and katabolic processes is a well-established factor. The complex network of cytokines regulating these processes and cell communication has a central role in the development and progression of osteoarthritis. Concentrations of both proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines were found to be altered depending on the osteoarthritis stage and activity. In this review, we analyzed individual cytokines involved in the immune processes with an emphasis on their function in osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive degenerative disease that affects all synovial joints, causing the disability of the main locomotor diarthrodial joints. OA pathogenesis is caused by a complex interplay between a number of genetic and environmental risk factors, involved in the early onset and progression of this chronic inflammatory joint disease. Uncovering the underlying immunological and genetic mechanisms will enable an insight into OA pathophysiology and lead to novel and integrative approaches in the treatment of OA patients, together with a reduction of the disease risk, or a delay of its onset in susceptible patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study systemically reviewed the evidence regarding associations between polymorphisms in interleukin-17 (IL-17) genes and osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility, and the relationship between circulating IL-17 levels and OA. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of the associations between the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and risk for OA and serum/plasma IL-17 levels in OA patients and controls. RESULTS Eight studies including 2214 OA patients and 2474 controls were included. Our meta-analysis identified a significant association between OA and the AA genotype of the IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism in a pooled cohort of affected individuals, compared to the case in a pooled cohort of control participants (OR = 1.516, 95% CI = 1.260-1.825, P < 0.001), and a significant association between OA and the CC genotype of the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism (OR = 2.257, 95% CI = 1.376-3.704, p = 0.001). OA site-based stratification identified an association between the AA genotype of the IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism and the CC genotype of the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism and knee OA, but not hip OA. Furthermore, the same patterns of significant associations between OA and the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms were identified based on homozygote contrasts. The OA patients showed significantly higher IL-17 levels than the control subjects (SMD = 1.830, 95% CI = 1.184-2.477, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis revealed associations between the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and OA susceptibility, and the presence of significantly higher circulating IL-17 levels in OA patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic complex multifactorial joint disease, and a major degenerative form of arthritis. Existing studies on the association between polymorphisms of the IL-17 gene and the risk of OA in different populations have yielded conflicting findings. AIM To investigate the association between polymorphisms of the IL-17 gene and the risk of OA. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis by systematically searching databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar to evaluate this association by calculating pooled odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. Moreover, subgroup analyses stratified by ethnicity and OA type were also conducted. RESULTS In a total of 6 citations involving 8 studies (2131 cases and 2299 controls), 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified. Of these 4 polymorphisms, 2 (rs2275913, rs763780) were common in five case-control studies. Together, the pooled results revealed that the A allele and genotype AA/GA of the rs2275913 polymorphism, and the C allele and genotype CC of the rs763780 polymorphism in the IL-17 gene increased the risk of OA. Furthermore, stratification analyses by ethnicity and OA type showed that the rs2275913 polymorphism increased the risk of OA among Asians and in knee/hip OA, respectively. In addition, stratification analyses also revealed that the rs763780 polymorphism increased OA risk among both Asians and Caucasians in knee/hip OA. CONCLUSION The rs763780 polymorphism of the IL-17F gene increased the risk of OA, whereas the rs2275913 polymorphism of the IL-17A gene increased the risk of OA only among Asians. Due to the limitations of this study, these findings should be validated in future studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin-23 receptor (IL-23R) rs10889677, interleukin-17A (IL-17A) rs227591, and interleukin-17F (IL-17F) rs763780 with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in Chinese Han preterm infants. METHODS A total of 100 Chinese Han preterm infants with NEC who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit from January 2017 to January 2019 were prospectively enrolled. Of the 100 preterm infants, 63 had stage II NEC and 37 had stage III NEC. A total of 100 preterm infants, matched for age and sex, were selected as the control group. PCR and Sanger sequencing were used to determine the SNPs of rs10889677, rs2275913, and rs763780. An unconditional logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association of SNPs with NEC susceptibility and severity. RESULTS The genotype and allele frequencies of rs10889677 and rs2275913 had no influence on the development of NEC (P>0.05). The genotype of rs763780 had no influence on the development of NEC (P>0.05), but the risk of NEC in the infants carrying C allele was 1.652 times that in those carrying T allele (95%CI: 1.052-2.695, P<0.05). The risk of NEC in the infants carrying TC+CC genotype was 1.856 times that in those carrying TT genotype (95%CI: 1.045-3.201, P<0.05). The risk of stage III NEC in the infants carrying TC+CC genotype was 2.965 times that in those carrying TT genotype (95%CI: 1.052-6.330, P<0.05). The risk of stage III NEC in the infants carrying C allele was 2.363 times that in those carrying T allele (95%CI: 1.034-4.093, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The SNPs of IL-23R rs10889677 and IL-17A rs2275913 are not associated with the susceptibility to NEC in Chinese Han preterm infants, while TC+CC genotype and C allele of IL-17F rs763780 are associated with the susceptibility to NEC and the severity of NEC.

Abstract
Background Knee osteoarthritis is a joint disease which is characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage and subsequent subchondral bone changes. Polymorphisms of IL-17A/F gene were the recognized candidate genes associated with knee osteoarthritis risk although the results were conflicting. The aim of this study was to determine whether IL-17A(rs2275913) and IL-17F(rs763780) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to knee osteoarthritis. Method Literature search was performed in PubMed, Medline, Cochrane Library, Web of science, Embase, and Google Scholar (last search was updated on June 20, 2019), and assessing this association was performed by calculating odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. Statistical heterogeneity was quantitatively evaluated by using the Q statistic with its p value and I2 statistic. Result Six case-control based studies were included involving IL-17A(rs2275913) (2134 cases and 2306 controls) and IL-17F(rs763780) (2134 cases and 2426 controls). The overall analysis suggested that the A allele of the rs2275913 polymorphism, and the C allele of the rs763780 polymorphism in the IL-17 gene may increase the risk of OA. However, subgroup analysis revealed that no association between IL-17A(rs2275913) gene and knee OA risk was found in Caucasian population. Conclusions This meta-analysis revealed that the IL-17A(rs2275913) gene polymorphisms may increase the risk of knee OA in Asians, and the IL-17F(rs763780) gene polymorphisms may increase the risk of knee OA both in Asians and Caucasians. However, because of the limitations of the present study, additional larger studies are needed to confirm our findings in the future.

Abstract
AIM This meta-analysis was conducted with the aim of collecting and synthesizing the existing evidence on the association of interleukin-17A (IL-17A)-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C gene polymorphisms and osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility. METHODS Six electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang were systematically searched for potentially relevant studies previous to June 2019. The strengths of association were estimated by summary odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) in a model-free approach. Heterogeneity test and sensitivity analysis were also conducted to guarantee the reliability of this study. RESULTS Six eligible case-control studies comprising 1989 OA patients and 2116 healthy controls were obtained for the meta-analysis. Dominant model was confirmed to be the optimal genetic model (MM + Mm vs mm). The pooled estimate supported that IL-17A-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C polymorphisms were significantly associated with OA susceptibility in the overall population (IL-17A-197G/A: GG + GA vs AA, OR = 0.69, 95%CI 0.57-0.80; P < .001; IL-17F-7488T/C, TT + TC vs CC, OR = 0.46, 95%CI 0.29-0.71, P < .001). However, subgroup analyses suggested the association only existed in Asians and knee OA. CONCLUSION The findings of the present study indicate that IL-17A-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C polymorphisms are positively associated to reduced risk of knee OA, especially in Asian populations.
