By contrast, healthy individuals homozygous for the common variant D10N, located in the ACT1 tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-interacting domain and previously associated with psoriasis, had impaired, but not abolished, responses to IL-17 cytokines.
The MnSOD Ala16Val single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has shown to be associated to inflammatory pathways and many metabolic disorders, such as obesity and dyslipidemia.
Thus, we investigated the relationship between MnSOD Ala16Val SNP with epilepsy and its influence on MetS, inflammation, apoptosis and DNA damage parameters.
In this sense, the objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between MnSOD Ala16Val SNP with BDNF levels on stroke and also its influence on nitrosative stress, inflammatory, apoptotic, and DNA damage parameters.
The MnSOD Ala16Val single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has shown to be associated to inflammatory pathways and many metabolic disorders, such as obesity and dyslipidemia.
Our findings suggest that the MnSOD Ala16Val SNP might have an important role in epilepsy, mainly in patients with generalized seizures and particularly with VV genotype.
Our results show an association of MnSOD Ala16Val genetic polymorphism with asthma in a Serbian population and suggest a protective role of the MnSOD 16Ala allele.
The manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) Ala16Val single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has shown to be associated to risk factors of vascular diseases.
Our findings appear to support the hypothesis that genetic variability of 252A>G polymorphism in TNF region may modulate risk of migraine in the population of Asian ancestry.
Among the ten studies identified, the best evidence is available for the TNFα -308G>A and TNFβ 252A > G polymorphisms indicating no overall association with migraine.
In conclusion, the TNFA 308G > A polymorphism was found to be associated with MA, particularly in females, whereas we could not find any association of TNFB 252G > A polymorphism in genetic susceptibility to migraine on comparing the migraine patients with HC or TTH patients.
The emerging data are quite conflicting and do not provide definitive evidence for a role of these gene variants in the pathogenesis of IHD; a possible exception is the G252A and polymorphism in the TNF-beta gene (also known as lymphotoxin-alpha) which, in a comprehensive genome-scan linkage analysis of unrelated Japanese, but not in a smaller German population, was linked to myocardial infarction.
We investigated the possibility that single nucleotide polymorphisms of the genes encoding TNF-alpha (-863C/A, -308G/A), LT-alpha (252G/A), and IL-10 (-1082G/A, -819C/T, and -592C/A) are associated with the incidence of restenosis, death, or myocardial infarction (MI) after coronary stenting.
The results showed that the genotype frequencies of 804C/A in exon 3 and 252A/G in intron 1 of the LTA gene were not significantly different among patients with NDR, NPDR, and PDR.
Studies eligible for this meta-analysis were searched in the PubMed, Embase, and CNKI by using the keywords "tumor necrosis factor", "TNF", "252A>G", "rs909253", "polymorphism", "polymorphisms", "variant", "SNP", combined with "migraine" or "migraine with aura (MA)" or "migraine without aura (MO)".
These findings strengthen previous results for DLBCL and the LTA 252A>G/TNF -308A locus and provide robust evidence that these TNF/LTA gene variants, or others in linkage disequilibrium, are involved in NHL etiology.
The CT genotype and T allele of MTHFR C677 T and GG genotype and G allele of LT-α A252G are associated with the risk of RA and with higher levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine, TNF-α in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
In conclusion, the TNFA 308G > A polymorphism was found to be associated with MA, particularly in females, whereas we could not find any association of TNFB 252G > A polymorphism in genetic susceptibility to migraine on comparing the migraine patients with HC or TTH patients.
Analyses of haplotypes for LTA-TNF SNPs (LTA -91C>A, LTA 252A>G, TNF -863C>A, TNF -857C>T, TNF -308G>A, and -238G>A) were similarly suggestive of an association with TGCT (P = 0.06) and nonseminoma (P = 0.04), but not seminoma (P = 0.21).
Relationship between polymorphisms 804C/A and 252A/G of lymphotoxin-alpha gene and -308G/A of tumor necrosis factor alpha gene and diabetic retinopathy in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
