Associations between interleukin-10 polymorphisms and vasculitis: A meta-analysis

초록/요약

Objective: The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of eligible studies to derive a precise estimate of the association between interleukin-10 (IL-10) and susceptibility to vasculitis. Methods: Meta-analyses were conducted on the associations between vasculitis and the +1136 G/A (rs1518111), -819 C/T (rs1800871), -592 C/A (rs1800872), and -1082 G/A (rs1800896) polymorphisms in IL-10. Results: A total of 7,257 vasculitis patients and 8,474 controls in 21 eligible studies were included in the current meta-analysis. This meta-analysis showed significant associations between IL-10 at position +1136 G/A, -819 C/T, and -592 C/A and overall vasculitis (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.19-1.48, P < 0.00001; OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.68-0.88, P=0.0002; OR 0.81, 95%CI 0.71-0.90, P=0.003), but no association between the IL-10 -1082 G/A polymorphism and vasculitis. On subgroup studies, significant associations were found between the +1136 G/A, -819 C/T, and -592 C/A polymorphisms and susceptibility to Beh?et’s disease. There were also significant association between the -592 C/A polymorphism and giant cell arteritis, and between a part of the -1082 G/A polymorphism and ANCA-associated vasculitis. Ethnicity-specific meta-analysis revealed significant associations between the +1136 G/A polymorphism and vasculitis in Asian populations, as well as between the +1136 G/A, -819 C/T, and -592 C/A polymorphisms and vasculitis in Middle Eastern populations. European populations had no association with any IL-10 polymorphisms. Conclusion: Meta-analysis demonstrates that the IL-10 +1136 G/A, -819 C/T, and -592 C/A polymorphisms are significantly associated with susceptibility to vasculitis.
