Abstract:
:An allele association study of 19 polymorphisms in surfactant proteins SP-A1, SP-A2, SP-B, and SP-D genes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was carried out. Trend-test analysis revealed differences (p < 0.05) in the frequency of alleles for some of the microsatellite markers flanking SP-B, and for one polymorphism (C/T) at nucleotide 1580 [C/T (1580)], within codon 131 (Thr131Ile) of the SP-B gene. The latter determines the presence or absence of a potential N-linked glycosylation site. Multivariate analysis revealed significant differences only for the C/T (1580) polymorphism. When the ARDS population was divided into subgroups, idiopathic (i.e., pneumonia, etc.) or exogenic (i.e., trauma, etc.), significant differences were observed for the C/T (1580), for the idiopathic ARDS group, and the frequency of the C/C genotype was increased in this group. Based on the odds ratio, the C allele may be viewed as a susceptibility factor for ARDS. Although the expression of both C and T alleles occurs in heterozygous individuals, it is currently not known whether these alleles correspond to similar levels of SP-B protein. These data suggest that SP-B or a linked gene contributes to susceptibility to ARDS.
