Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:The tumour necrosis factor superfamily 4 (TNFSF4) is a candidate gene for autoimmune diseases. We investigated the relationship of this gene with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a Chinese Guangxi population. METHODS:A total of 294 patients with SLE, 210 with RA, and 282 healthy controls were genotyped for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1234315 using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The potential functional effects of the SNP were predicted by in silico analysis. RESULTS:Statistically significant associations with SLE and RA were detected at rs1234315, both by allele analysis (odds ratio 1.47, 95% confidence interval 1.17-1.86, p = 0.001; odds ratio 1.49, 95% confidence interval 1.15-1.92, p = 0.002; respectively), and genotype analysis (p = 0.003 and p = 7.000 × 10-5, respectively). The Akaike's information criterion (AIC) values indicated that the recessive model may serve as the best-fit model for the SNP for SLE and RA. CONCLUSION:Our results provided support for TNFSF4 rsl234315 as a SLE and RA susceptibility locus in a Chinese Guangxi population.
