Correlation between single nucleotide polymorphism of rs3811047 in IL-1 F7 gene and rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility among Han population in central plains of China.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of rs3811047 in IL-1 F7 gene and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility among the Han population in central plains of China. METHODS:A total of 276 RA patients admitted to our hospital from December 2009 to December 2011 together with 276 healthy physical examinees in the same period were chosen as the subjects. The typing for rs3811047 SNP in IL-1 F7 gene was carried out by using ligase detection reaction and polymerase chain reaction technique. And the frequency of each allele and genotypes distribution was calculated so as to evaluate the association between genotype distribution and RA susceptibility. RESULTS:The frequency of A allele of rs3811047 in IL-1 F7 gene in RA group and control group was 16.27% and 17.68%, respectively, and that of G allele in two groups was 83.73% and 82.32%, respectively. The difference between two groups wasn't statistical significant (P >0.05). The frequency of genotype AA, AG and GG in RA group was 2.19%, 27.84% and 69.97%, respectively, while that in control group was 2.94%, 29.78% and 67.28%, respectively. The difference of distribution of three genotypes was not statistically significant (P >0.05). RA patients with A allele were better than those without A allele in joint swelling index, rest pain, HAQ scoring and blood sedimentation. There was significant difference between two groups in above indexes (P<0.05/P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:No significant correlation between RA susceptibility among the Han population in central plains of China and rs3811047 SNP inIL-1 F7 gene is observed. However, A allele of rs3811047 has certain influence on the condition of RA patients.
