Abstract
Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute systemic vasculitis of unknown etiology. Cyclophilin A (CypA), also known as PPIA, has been identified to play a vital role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular or inflammatory diseases. However, no studies have examined the relationship between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the peptidylprolyl isomerase A (PPIA) and the development of KD and KD with or without coronary artery lesions (CALs). Objective: The present study was conducted to evaluate whether PPIA SNPs are associated with susceptibility to KD or CALs in KD. Methods: Three PPIA SNPs were genotyped in 101 KD patients and 105 healthy controls from a Chinese population. The allele and genotype frequencies were compared between the case and control groups, as well as in KD patients with and without CALs. Results: The data revealed a significant difference in the genotype and allele frequencies of rs17860041 A/C between KD patients and normal controls. Compared to the rs17860041 CC genotype, the AC genotype demonstrated a consistently beneficial roles in reducing the KD incidence. Furthermore, the allele frequency of C in the KD group was higher than that in the control group (P < .05). Haplotype analysis for PPIA polymorphisms (rs10951772 A/G, rs17860041 A/C, and rs4720485 A/T) also confirmed this association in KD patients and normal controls. Conclusion: A PPIA promoter SNP (rs17860041 A/C) confers susceptibility to KD in Chinese children and was identified as an important marker of KD in this study.

Abstract
Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is an acute disease with high mortality and seriously threatens human health. The identification of new effective biological markers for AMI is a prerequisite for treatment. Most proteomic studies have focused on atherosclerotic plaques, vascular cells, monocytes and platelets in the blood; however, the concentration of these factors in plasma is low, making it difficult to measure the complexity of plasma components. Moreover, some studies have examined the plasma protein of patients with acute coronary syndrome with histochemistry; however, the results are not consistent. Therefore, it is necessary to further investigate the differential proteins in the plasma of patients with AMI via proteomics to identify new biomarkers of AMI. Methods In this study, immunodepletion of high-abundance plasma proteins followed by an isobaric tagging for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-based quantitative proteomic approach was used to analyze plasma samples from 5 control individuals and 10 AMI patients. Results Four hundred sixty-eight proteins were identified from two samples, and 33 proteins were differentially expressed in AMI patients compared to the controls. Among the 33 proteins, 12 proteins showed a ≥1.5-fold change between AMI and control samples. These proteins included fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP3, ratio =6.36), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB ratio =4.89), adenylate kinase1 (AK1 ratio =4.16), pro-platelet basic protein (PPBP ratio =3.29), creatine kinase (CK ratio =2.88), platelet factor 4 (PF4 ratio =2.62), peptidyl prolyl isomerase Cyclophilin A (PPIA ratio =2.05), Cofilin-1 (CFL1 ratio =1.81), coronin1A (CORO1A ratio =1.71), protein kinase M (PKM ratio =1.63), ribonuclease inhibitor (RNH1, ratio =1.67), and triose phosphate isomerase (TPI1 ratio =1.56). By contrast, there was a decrease of 19 proteins, such as adiponectin (ADIPOQ ratio =0.70), insulin-like growth factor binding protein6 (IGFBP6 ratio =0.70), Dickkopf-related protein 3 (DKK3 ratio =0.70) and complement 4B (C4B ratio =0.68). The most over-represented term was regulation of cell proliferation in the cellular component category of Gene Ontology (GO). The top 3 biological process terms were regulation of cell proliferation, response to wounding and wound healing. These proteins included immune proteins, blood coagulation proteins, lipid metabolism proteins, cytoskeleton proteins, energy metabolism proteins, gene regulation proteins, myocutaneous proteins, and myocardial remodeling proteins and were highly connected with each other, which indicates that the functional network of these processes contribute to the pathophysiology of AMI. Conclusions In conclusion, the present quantitative proteomic study identified novel AMI biomarker candidates and might provide fundamental information for the development of an AMI biomarker.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Viruses are obligate parasites that depend on the cellular machinery of the host to regenerate and manufacture their proteins. Most antiviral drugs on the market today target viral proteins. However, the more recent strategies involve targeting the host cell proteins or pathways that mediate viral replication. This new approach would be effective for most viruses while minimizing drug resistance and toxicity. METHODS Cytomegalovirus replication, latency, and immune response are mediated by the intermediate early protein 2, the main protein that determines the effectiveness of drugs in cytomegalovirus inhibition. This review explains how intermediate early protein 2 can modify the action of cyclosporin A, an immunosuppressive, and antiviral drug. It also links all the pathways mediated by cyclosporin A, cytomegalovirus replication, and its encoded proteins. RESULTS Intermediate early protein 2 can influence the cellular cyclophilin A pathway, affecting cyclosporin A as a mediator of viral replication or anti-cytomegalovirus drug. CONCLUSION Cyclosporin A has a dual function in cytomegalovirus pathogenesis. It has the immunosuppressive effect that establishes virus replication through the inhibition of T-cell function. It also has an anti-cytomegalovirus effect mediated by intermediate early protein 2. Both of these functions involve cyclophilin A pathway.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effects of SNPs in the cyclophilin A/calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFATs) pathway genes (PPIA, PPP3CB, PPP3R1, NFATC1 and NFATC2) on cyclosporine (CsA) efficacy in renal transplant recipients. MATERIALS & METHODS Seventy-six tag SNPs were detected in 155 CsA-treated renal recipients with at least a 5-year follow-up. The associations of SNPs with acute rejection, nephrotoxicity, pneumonia and estimated glomerular filtration rate post transplant were explored. RESULTS NFATC1 rs3894049 GC was a risk factor for acute rejection compared with CC carriers (p = 0.0005). NFATC1 rs2280055 TT carriers had a more stable estimated glomerular filtration rate level than CC (p = 0.0004). CONCLUSION Detecting NFATC1 polymorphisms could help predict CsA efficacy in renal transplant patients.

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

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

Abstract
Coding non-synonymous SNP's of PPIA are very rare in human. 3 SNP's result in a destabilization of the CypA protein and an HCV and human coronavirus 229E resistance phenotype. Promotor SNP's are associated with rapid disease progression to AIDS.
Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites. All stages of their replication cycle depend on support by host-encoded factors. However, sequence variation also exists in host factors mostly in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Several coding and non-coding genetic variants in the PPIA gene encoding for CypA have been described, but there is only limited information about their influence on the course of viral infection. This paper reviews PPIA polymorphisms and what is known about their impact on the replication cycle and course of disease for different viral infections.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have demonstrated an association between polymorphisms in the regulatory regions of Cyclophilin A (CypA) and susceptibility to both HIV-1 infection and disease progression. Here we studied whether these polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and disease progression in the Amsterdam Cohort on HIV-1 infection and AIDS (ACS) in a group of men having sex with men (MSM) and drug users (DU). Methodology/Principal Findings We screened participants of the ACS for the C1604G and A1650G polymorphisms in the regulatory regions of CypA. The prevalence of the 1650G allele was significantly higher in high risk seronegative MSM than in HIV-1 infected MSM. However, C1604G or A1650G were not associated with the clinical course of infection in MSM of the ACS. Interestingly, participants of the ACS-DU who carried the 1604G allele showed a significantly accelerated progression when viral RNA load above 104.5 copies per ml plasma was used as an endpoint in survival analysis. Conclusion/Significance The results obtained in this study suggest that the A1650G polymorphism in the regulatory region of the CypA gene may be associated with protection from HIV-1 infection, while the 1604G allele may have a weak association with the clinical course of infection in DU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cyclophilin A (CypA)-cyclosporine (CsA) complex promotes immune response. The variation at the CypA gene could explain CsA-pharmacokinetics and clinical outcomes among CsA-treated patients. METHODS The study included 290 kidney transplanted patients (65% male; mean age 51 +/- 15 yr), treated with CsA. The five CypA- exons and the promoter region were analysed through single-strand conformation analysis, denaturing high performance liquid chromatography, and direct sequencing. The effect of a promoter polymorphism (-11 G/C) on gene expression was analysed in cell-cultures. RESULTS We found two polymorphisms in the promoter (-11 G/C) and exon 1 (+36 G/A). Genotype frequencies did not differ between patients according to their pharmacokinetics status. In vitro studies showed that -11 G/C affected gene expression. The -11 G allele was significantly associated with clinical nephrotoxicity (p = 0.006). The strongest predictors for nephrotoxicity were a donor age > or =55 yr, and the promoter GG + GC genotypes. CONCLUSIONS Our work suggests that a CypA-promoter polymorphism (-11 G/C) could be associated with clinical nephrotoxicity. Replication of this study in other populations is necessary to define the role of CypA-variants in the main clinical outcomes among CsA-treated kidney-transplanted patients.
