Allelic discrimination screening obtained statistically significant associations for the MUC2-V116M (P = 0.003) polymorphism with CD and for MUC4-A585S (P = 0.025), as well as MUC13-R502S (P = 0.0003) with UC.
We genotyped rs1800629 in 326 leprosy cases from Bahia State, Brazil, including 72 paucibacillary (PB) and 47 multibacillary (MB) without reactions, and 69 reversal reaction (RR) and 78 erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) with reactions.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between previously reported SNPs IL2-330 T>G (rs2069762); IL4-590 C>T (rs2243250); IL6-174 G>C (rs1800795); IL10-592 A>C (rs1800872); IL10-1082 G>A (rs1800896); IL17A -692 C>T (rs8193036); IL17A -197 G>A (rs2275913); TNF -238 G>A (rs361525); TNF -308 G>A (rs1800629) and IFNG +874 T>A (rs2430561) and pulmonary TB (PTB) susceptibility.
The <i>TNF-α</i> -238 A allele appeared a protective effect against STB, whereas the <i>SP110</i> SNPs (rs722555 and rs1135791) and <i>TNF-α</i> -308G>A (rs1800629) showed no association with susceptibility to PTB and STB patients in southern China.
Based upon the functional role of the TNF-α [-308 G(low) → A(high) (rs1800629)] and IL-10 [-1082 A(low) → G(high) (rs1800870), -819 T(low) → C(high) (rs1800871) and -592 A(low) → C(high) (rs1800872)] single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on production levels, we genotyped 76 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) (pTB), 55 patients with extrapulmonary TB (epTB) and 95 healthy blood donors by polymerase chain reaction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).
