Xiao S, Pan X, Huang X, Liu Y, Wen SW, Liu A. Gene polymorphisms of inflammatory factors in liver cirrhosis. Front Genet 2023; 14:1140427. [PMID: 37101651 PMCID: PMC10123281 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2023.1140427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Studies on the association between gene polymorphisms of various inflammatory factors and liver cirrhosis have been inconsistent. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively summarize the available evidence on the association between gene polymorphisms of inflammatory factors and liver cirrhosis through a systematic review. Methods: We searched databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for relevant articles published from building databases to 25 September 2022. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to investigate the association between gene polymorphisms of various inflammatory factors and liver cirrhosis. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to assess the strength of association. Results: A total of 43 articles were included in the systematic review and of them, 22 articles were included in the meta-analysis. The gene polymorphisms of IL-10-1082 GA + AA vs. GG (OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.12-1.83), IL-10-1082 AA vs. GG (OR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.36-3.02), IL-18 -137 GG vs. CC (OR = 3.84, 95% CI = 1.29-11.40), TGF-β1 -509 T vs. C (OR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.42-4.48), and IFN-γ +874 T vs. A (OR = 1.98, 95% CI = 1.32-2.98) were associated with liver cirrhosis significantly and no association was observed in other gene polymorphisms included in the meta-analysis. The review of inflammatory factors gene polymorphisms that were only reported by a single study indicated 19 gene polymorphisms were risk factors and 4 gene polymorphisms were protective factors for liver cirrhosis, while the association between other 27 gene polymorphisms and liver cirrhosis were not statistically significant. Discussion: This study suggests that IL-10 -1082G/A, IL-18 -137G/C, TGF-β1 -509T/C, and IFN-γ +874T/A were potentially associated with the risk of liver cirrhosis susceptibility. These findings may provide comprehensive evidence for genetic susceptibility and immunogenetic pathology of liver cirrhosis.

Abstract
Cirrhosis is an active hepatic inflammation process of the liver considered as the serious phase of different liver injuries. Epidemiological studies have evaluated the possible association between TNF-α-308G/A gene polymorphism and liver cirrhosis. In this study, we have furthered the study to assess the exact association of TNF-α-308G/A gene polymorphism with liver cirrhosis susceptibility by integrating all available data. Eligible case-control studies were carried out from the establishment of the project to September 2021. Published literature from multiple databases was retrieved, collected, and analyzed by two investigators independently. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for every study. Review Manager 5.2 and Stata 15.0 software were used for meta-analysis and stability was assessed by both subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis. Begg's funnel plot and Egger's regression across the studies were also explored. We examined 22 case-control studies with 2683 cirrhosis patients and 2905 normal controls in four genetic models (GA vs. GG: OR = 0.95, 95%CI: (0.70, 1.30); AA vs. GG: OR = 1.11, 95% CI: (0.66, 1.85), GA + AA vs. GG: OR = 1.00, 95% CI: (0.73, 1.37); AA vs. GA + GG: OR = 1.07, 95%CI: (0.70,1.63)). TNF-α-308G/A gene polymorphism was relatively independent, and the results did not show a significant difference between the two groups. In the subgroup analysis by etiological classification of liver cirrhosis, cirrhosis after HCV infection was positively associated with the risk of TNF-α-308G/A polymorphism (AA vs. GG: OR = 3.02, 95% CI: (1.15, 7.88), AA vs. GA + GG: OR = 2.68, 95% CI: (1.04, 6.95)). The meta-analysis showed TNF-α-308G/A gene polymorphism might not have affected susceptibility for liver cirrhosis. Nevertheless, further and well-designed studies were needed to confirm the findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association of interleukin-10 rs1800896 polymorphism with head and neck cancer risk and its clinical stages has been investigated by many published studies, but the results remain inconsistent. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis for further investigation. RESULTS Six case-control studies involving 1,781 head and neck cancer patients and 1,978 controls were yielded. The results indicated an association between rs1800896 polymorphism and increased head and neck risk [odds ratio (95%confidence interval) for G vs. A, GA vs. AA, GG vs. AA, GA+GG vs. AA, and GG vs. AA + GA were 1.63 (1.30-2.04), 3.17 (2.11-4.76), 1.63 (1.17-2.26), 1.73 (1.25-2.39), and 2.73 (1.82-4.09), respectively]. The subgroup analyses all obtained similar results with overall populations. The results of clinical stages yielded a non-significant association. No publication bias was detected. MATERIALS AND METHODS The PubMed and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were searched up to December 27, 2016. Two authors independently selected studies, extracted and analyzed the data using the RevMan 5 software. Either a fixed effect or a random effect model was used to estimate pooled odds ratio and its 95% confidence intervals. CONCLUSIONS We concluded that interleukin-10 rs1800896 polymorphism was significantly associated with head and neck cancer risk but not with the clinical stages thereof.

Influence of Genetic Polymorphisms of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha and Interleukin 10 Genes on the Risk of Liver Cirrhosis in HIV-HCV Coinfected Patients. PLoS One 2013; 8:e66619. [PMID: 23840511 PMCID: PMC3694087 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0066619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2012] [Accepted: 05/09/2013] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Analysis of the contribution of genetic (single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at position -238 and -308 of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and -592 of the interleukin-10 (IL-10) promotor genes) and of classical factors (age, alcohol, immunodepression, antirretroviral therapy) on the risk of liver cirrhosis in human immunodeficiency (HIV)-hepatitis C (HCV) virus coinfected patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety one HIV-HCV coinfected patients (50 of them with chronic hepatitis and 41 with liver cirrhosis) and 55 healthy controls were studied. Demographic, risk factors for the HIV-HCV infection, HIV-related (CD4+ T cell count, antiretroviral therapy, HIV viral load) and HCV-related (serum ALT concentration, HCV viral load, HCV genotype) characteristics and polymorphisms at position -238 and -308 of the tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNF- α) and -592 of the interleukin-10 (IL-10) promotor genes were studied. RESULTS Evolution time of the infection was 21 years in both patients' groups (chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis). The group of patients with liver cirrhosis shows a lower CD4+ T cell count at the inclusion in the study (but not at diagnosis of HIV infection), a higher percentage of individuals with previous alcohol abuse, and a higher proportion of patients with the genotype GG at position -238 of the TNF-α promotor gene; polymorphism at -592 of the IL-10 promotor gene approaches to statistical significance. Serum concentrations of profibrogenic transforming growth factor beta1 were significantly higher in healthy controls with genotype GG at -238 TNF-α promotor gene. The linear regression analysis demonstrates that the genotype GG at -238 TNF-α promotor gene was the independent factor associated to liver cirrhosis. CONCLUSION It is stressed the importance of immunogenetic factors (TNF-α polymorphism at -238 position), above other factors previously accepted (age, gender, alcohol, immunodepression), on the evolution to liver cirrhosis among HIV-infected patients with established chronic HCV infections.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the association between angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and ischemic stroke in East Asians. Data Retrieval: A computer-based online search was conducted in PubMed, Google scholar, China National Knowledge lnfrastructure database between January 1990 and April 2012 for relevant studies. The key words were angiotensinogen or AGT, polymorphism or genetic and ischemic stroke or cerebral infarction. Selection Criteria: Case-controlled studies addressing the correlation between angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and ischemic stroke in East Asians were included. The distribution of genotypes in the included studies was tested for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Quality evaluation of the included studies was conducted by two physicians. Statistical analyses were carried out using Stata 12.0 software for meta-analysis. Heterogeneity tests, sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also conducted. Main Outcome Measures: The association between angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and ischemic stroke risk in East Asians was assessed. Results: Six relevant studies involving 891 patients with ischemic stroke and 727 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Results showed that there was a significant association between angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and the risk of ischemic stroke in East Asians (T vs. M: odds ratio (OR) = 1.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.10–2.16; TT vs. MM: OR = 2.24, 95%CI = 1.37–3.66; TT vs. MT: OR = 1.76, 95%CI = 1.41–2.20; MM + MT vs. TT: OR = 0.57, 95%CI = 0.46–0.70). Sensitivity analysis confirmed that the study results were stable and reliable, with no publication bias. Conclusion: The angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism is associated with ischemic stroke in East Asians, and the TT genotype and T allele are risk factors for ischemic stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiotensinogen (AGT) T174M gene polymorphism has been suggested to be linked to risk of coronary artery disease, however, results from studies of this association have been inconsistent. In this study, we assess the relationship between AGT T174M gene polymorphism and coronary artery disease. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis of 18 case-control studies with 8,147 coronary artery disease cases and 5,344 controls in Google scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases to identify eligible studies published by July, 2012. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated from these studies. RESULTS Overall, a significant association was found between angiotensinogen T174M polymorphism and coronary artery disease risk when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (TT vs. MM: OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.40-0.71; dominant model: OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.01-1.35; recessive model: OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.40-0.72). In a stratified analysis, the results indicate a significant association in Caucasians suffering from coronary stenosis (TT vs. MM: OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.23-0.63; recessive model: OR = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.23-0.64). No significant increased risk for coronary artery disease was found in Asians. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis indicate a significant association of T174M polymorphism with coronary stenosis risk in Caucasians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to assess the association between M235T polymorphism and heart failure using a meta-analysis. METHODS A literature search of Google Scholar, PubMed, the Cochrane Library and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database (January 1990-April 2012) was performed for relevant studies. Statistical analyses were carried out using the Stata 12.0 to combine all the relevant studies. Summary odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated in a fixed-effects model and a random-effects model when appropriate. The pooled ORs were performed under the allelic contrast (T vs M), the dominant (TT + MT vs. MM) and the recessive models (TT vs MT + MM). Begg's test was used to measure publication bias. RESULTS A total of six case-control studies including 842 patients and 1054 controls were enrolled in this meta-analysis. Overall, there was a significant association between angiotensinogen (AGT) gene M235T polymorphism and risk of heart failure in the subgroup analysis under the allelic contrast (T vs M: OR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.04-2.11) and the dominant model (TT+MT vs MM: OR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.13-2.46) in the Caucasian population. CONCLUSIONS The current meta-analysis suggests that M235T polymorphism might be associated with increased risk of heart failure in Caucasians.

Abstract
The angiotensinogen (AGT) gene M235T polymorphism has been suggested to be linked with susceptibility to coronary artery disease (CAD). In the present study, a meta-analysis was performed to assess the correlation between the M235T polymorphism and CAD. Nine studies with a total of 2281 subjects were selected for inclusion in the analysis. The references were retrieved via PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang and VIP database (1995.1-2012.1). The analyses were performed using STATA 10.0 software. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were assessed after the collected data were pooled for analysis. A significant association was detected between M235T gene polymorphism and CAD in the population studied. The estimates (OR) of CAD risk were calculated in a homozygote comparison (OR=1.54; 95% CI, 1.09-2.16), a heterozygote comparison (OR=1.30; 95% CI, 1.07-1.58), a dominant model (OR=0.72; 95% CI, 0.55-0.94) and a recessive model (OR=1.37; 95% CI, 0.98-1.91). The current meta-analysis suggests that the M235T polymorphism is associated to an increased risk of CAD.
