Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Chronic intraprostatic inflammation is suspected to play a major role in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer (PCa). Polymorphisms in interleukin-10 (IL-10), a key anti-inflammatory cytokine gene can influence immune response and immune evasion of tumor cells. Its role as an anti-metastatic molecule is also well documented. METHODS:Gene promoter polymorphisms in IL-10 (-1082 G>A and -819 C>T) was analyzed in 159 PCa patients and 259 healthy controls to investigate their potential association with susceptibility for PCa. RESULTS:Our results indicated that the heterozygous (GA) and homozygous mutant (AA) genotypes of IL-10 -1082 to be more prevalent among PCa patients in comparison to controls (GA: OR - 2.8, p = 0.011; AA: OR - 2.3, p = 0.037). More patients (92.5%) than controls (82.7%) were positive for the A allele (GA + AA: OR - 2.6, p = 0.015). We observed lower frequency of T(-819)-G(-1082) haplotype in patients without bone metastasis (4.4%, OR - 0.30, p = 0.019) in comparison to PCa patients with bone metastasis (12.6%). CONCLUSION:Our results support the emerging hypothesis that genetically determined immune activity may play a role in the pathophysiology of PCa. Our findings of high producer of IL-10 -1082 variants suggest initiation of PCa. Future studies in large cohort of different ethnicity PCa groups are warranted to establish definite associations with other cytokine gene polymorphisms.
