Association between TNFAIP3 Gene Polymorphisms and Risk of Allergic Rhinitis in a Chinese Han Population
Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. Here we investigated the effect of TNFAIP3 gene polymorphisms on the risk of allergic rhinitis (AR) in a Chinese Han population. The case-control study included 540 AR patients and 524 healthy controls. Genotyping for TNFAIP3 polymorphisms (rs5029928, rs9494885, rs10499194, rs610604, and rs7753873) were performed using restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and DNA sequencing. Allele and genotype frequencies were compared between patients and controls. The rs9494885 TC genotype (corrected p (p=0.0032); odds ratio (OR)=2.06, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.40-3.04) and C allele (p=0.0056; OR=1.94, 95% CI: 1.35-2.76) were more frequent in AR patients compared with controls. The frequencies of the rs9494885 TT genotype (p=0.0029; OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.33-0.72) and T allele (p= 0.0056; OR=0.52, 95% CI: 0.36-0.74) were lower in AR patients than that in controls. A higher frequency of the rs7753873 AC genotype (p=0.0023; OR=1.96, 95 %CI: 1.38-2.77) and C allele (p=0.0012; OR=1.74, 95% CI: 1.26-2.40) and a lower frequency of the rs7753873 AA genotype (p=0.0040; OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.38-0.75) and A allele (p=0.0012; OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.42-0.80) were observed in AR patients. TNFAIP3 gene polymorphisms (rs9494885 and rs7753873) are associated with the susceptibility to AR in the Chinese Han population.
