Abstract
Three important factors, including genetics, environment factors and autoimmunity play a role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The heritability of RA has been accounted to be 50-60%, while the HLA involvement in heritability of the disease has been accounted to be 10-40%. It has been documented that shared epitope (SE) alleles, such as HLA-DRB1*01 and DRB1*04, some HLA alleles like HLA-DRB1*13 and DRB1*15 are connected to RA susceptibility. An advanced classification of SE categorizes SE alleles into four main groups namely, S1, S2, S3D, and S3P. The S2 and S3P groups have been linked to susceptibility of seropositive RA. Various genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered many susceptibility loci implicated in pathogenesis of RA. Some of the important single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked to RA are TRAF1, STAT4, CTLA4, IRF5, CCR6, PTPN22, IL23R, and PADI4. HLA and non-HLA genes may discriminate anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibody-positive and anti-CCP-negative RA groups. Furthermore, risk of the disease has also been linked to environmental agents, mainly cigarette smoking. Pharmacogenomics has also confirmed SNPs or genetic patterns that might be linked to drugs responses. Different aspects of genetic involvement in the pathogenesis, etiology, and RA complications are reviewed in this article.

Abstract
Two pairwise genetic interactions (B cell lymphocyte kinase (BLK) rs13277113,B cell scaffold protein with ankyrin repeats 1 (BANK1) rs3733197and BLK rs13277113 membrane metalloendopeptidase like 1 (MMEL1)/ tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 14 (TNFRSF14) rs3890745) have been demonstrated in determining susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) without replication, thus this study was performed to examine whether abovementioned genetic polymorphisms were associated with RA and further tests were performed to see whether aforementioned genetic interactions existed in RA among Chinese population. A total of 328 patients with RA and 449 healthy control subjects were included in the current study. The polymorphisms were genotyped using the ligase detection reaction-polymerase chain reaction (LDR-PCR) technology. The association of RA with each polymorphism was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression model. Interaction analysis was done by multiple methods. Significant difference in genotype distribution of BLK rs13277113 polymorphism between RA patients and healthy controls was found (p = 1.01 × 10-2). The major allele A of BLK rs13277113 polymorphism was significantly increased in RA patients compared with controls (OR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.08-1.71, p = 9.27 × 10-3). Significant association of RA with the major allele A of BLK rs13277113 polymorphism under dominant model was also detected (OR = 2.74, 95% CI = 1.42-5.29, p = 2.73 × 10-3). However, we did not find significant association between neither BANK1 rs3733197 polymorphism nor MMEL1/TNFRSF14 rs3890745 polymorphism and RA. Non-significant evidence was found for neither additive nor multiplicative interaction for these two pairwise genetic polymorphisms (BLK rs13277113-BANK1 rs3733197; BLK rs13277113-MMEL1/TNFRSF14 rs3890745). Significant association of RA with G allele of BANK1 rs3733197 polymorphism was only found among individuals carrying A/A genotype of the BLK rs13277113 polymorphism (OR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.01-2.18, p = .04). In summary, our results indicated that the BLK rs13277113 polymorphism was involved in the genetic background of RA in Chinese population and the association of BANK1 rs3733197 polymorphism with RA was dependent on the genotype of BLK rs13277113 polymorphism, highlighting B-cell response implicated in the pathogenesis of RA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to detect a possible association between PTPN22 gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Chinese Han population. METHODS 7 PTPN22 SNPs were genotyped in 358 patients with RA and 713 patients with SLE, as well as 564 RA controls and 672 SLE controls by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP). Association analyses were conducted on the whole data set. Significant relationships were also examined between clinical features and SNPs for both RA and SLE. RESULTS Rs2476601 was lack of polymorphism with a ⩽0.1% frequency in both SLE and RA patients and healthy controls in our study. The two SNPs rs1217414 and rs3811021 of PTPN22 shown strong association with both SLE (rs1217414T: padj = 6.07e-004, OR=0.57; rs3811021C: padj = 4.68e-005, OR=0.65) and RA (rs1217414T: padj = 2.01e-008, OR=0.26; rs3811021C: padj = 0.028, OR=0.70). And the rs3765598 revealed a strong risk factor for SLE (p=9.38e-009, padj = 6.57e-008, OR=1.93), but not for RA (p=0.48, OR=1.12). Moreover, protective haplotype ACTTC in RA (p=7.73e-016, padj = 5.51-015, OR[95%CI]=0.02[0.002-0.10]) and SLE (p=8.29e-018, padj = 5.80e-017, OR[95%CI]=0.11[0.06-0.21]) were observed. In addition, the distribution of risk haplotypes ACGTC and GCTTT in RA (ACGTC: p=0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI]=1.85[1.29-2.63]; GCTTT: p=2.62e-005, padj = 1.85e-004, OR[95%CI]=2.40[1.57-3.65]) and SLE (ACGTC: p=0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI]=1.85[1.29-2.63]; ACGTC: p=7.74e-011, padj = 6.81e-010, OR[95%CI]=2.21[1.12-3.34]; GCTTT: p=2.40[1.57-3.65], padj = 2.26e-006, OR[95%CI]=2.64[1.79-3.87]) were significant different from that in controls. Furthermore, significant association was observed between the PTPN22 rs3765598 and antinuclear antibodies 1 (ANA1) in SLE. CONCLUSIONS Our data provide strong evidence that the rs1217414 and rs3811021 in PTPN22 gene might be common protective factors contributed to SLE and RA susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. While, the rs3765598 might increase the genetic susceptibility of SLE, but not RA.

[PMID: 25963842 DOI: 10.1016/j.imbio.2015.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2015] [Accepted: 04/20/2015] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease with a complex genetic background. The genes encoding protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4) have been reported to be associated with RA in several ethnic populations. OBJECTIVES This work aims to assess the association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility through an updated meta-analysis of available case-control studies. METHODS A literature search of all relevant studies published from January 2007 up to December 2014 was conducted using Pubmed and Science Direct databases. The observed studies that were related to an association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility were identified. Meta-analysis of the pooled and stratified data was done and assessed using varied genetic models. RESULTS Thirty-seven case-control studies with a total of 47 comparisons (29 for PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism and 18 for STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphism) met our inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis showed an association between PTPN22 T allele, CT+TT and TT genotypes with RA susceptibility. Furthermore, The meta-analysis showed an association between STAT4 T allele, GT+TT and TT genotypes with RA susceptibility. Stratification of RA patients according to ethnic groups showed that PTPN22 T allele, CT+TT genotypes, STAT4 T allele and STAT4 GT+TT were significantly associated with RA in European, Asian, African subjects, while PTPN22 TT genotype was significantly associated with RA in European but not in Asian and African subjects and STAT4 TT genotype was significantly associated with RA in European and Asian but not in African subject. A subgroup analysis according to the presence or absence of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies revealed that the association between PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms with RA susceptibility may not be dependent on RF and anti-CCP antibodies. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis demonstrated that PTPN22 rs2476601 and STAT4 rs7574865 polymorphisms confers susceptibility to RA in total subjects and in major ethnic groups. The association may not be dependent on RF and anti-CCP antibodies.
