Serum Level and Gene Expression of Interleukin-15 Do Not Correlate with Villous Atrophy in Celiac Disease Patients.

Abstract:

: Background and Aims: Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a key player in the pathogenesis of celiac disease (CD). We investigated the functional role of IL-15 in the process of epithelial cell phenotypic modification at different stages of CD. Materials and Methods: In this study, we looked for correlations between the IL-15 mRNA levels in duodenal tissue and serum protein levels in a cohort of Iranian patients affected by CD based on the degree of histopathology. Ninety-five formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded duodenal tissue specimens were collected: 23 with a Marsh I value; 30 with a Marsh II value; 32 with a Marsh III value; and 10 normal controls. The expression levels of the IL-15 gene in these biopsy specimens were determined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and IL-15 serum protein concentrations were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared to tissue expression. Results: The IL-15 mRNA levels were higher in patients with Marsh II compared with the control group, and the Marsh I, and Marsh III groups. The differences between the Marsh II and Marsh I patients were statistically significant (p = 0.03). Similarly, the serum concentration of IL-15 was higher in Marsh II patients compared to those with Marsh I and Marsh III lesions, although the differences were not statistically significant (p = 0.221). Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that IL-15 gene expression might be elevated only in the early stages of CD onset (and histological damage) and that IL-15 serum levels do not significantly correlate with its tissue expression whatever the degree of histopathology.
