Oyaci Y, Aytac HM, Pehlivan M, Pehlivan S. Genetic polymorphism of IL-17F rs763780 contributes to the susceptibility to bipolar disorder but not to schizophrenia in the Turkish population. NUCLEOSIDES, NUCLEOTIDES & NUCLEIC ACIDS 2023; 42:852-866. [PMID: 37171073 DOI: 10.1080/15257770.2023.2211124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2023] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
This study aims to investigate the genetic polymorphism in the interleukin-17F (IL-17F) (rs763780, 7488 A/G) gene in bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) patients by comparing it with healthy controls considering clinical parameters. A sample of 107 patients with BD, 129 patients with SCZ, and 100 healthy volunteers were included. SCID-I was used to confirm the diagnosis according to DSM-IV-TR criteria. The Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D) were administered to BD patients. The Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS) was applied to the patients with SCZ. PCR-RFLP was used to determine IL-17F gene polymorphism. Our results demonstrated that the distributions of the IL-17F genotype and the allele frequencies of BD patients were statistically significantly different from the control group. The AA genotype (OR: 0.283; 95% Cl: 0.140-0.573; p<.001) and A allele (OR: 0.333; 95% Cl: 0.171-0.646; p=.001) frequencies were significantly higher in the control group than in the BD group. The IL-17F genotype and the allele frequency distributions of SCZ patients were not statistically significantly different from the control group. When comparing scale scores due to the IL-17F genotype distributions in patients with BD or SCZ, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups of IL-17F genotypes. In summary, whereas the IL-17F polymorphism may be associated with BD, this polymorphism was not related to SCZ.

Abstract
Precision medicine refers to a highly individualized and personalized approach to patient care. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how an individual’s genomic profile affects their drug response, enabling stable and effective drug selection, minimizing side effects, and maximizing therapeutic efficacy. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation in the joints. It mainly starts in peripheral joints, such as the hands and feet, and progresses to large joints, which causes joint deformation and bone damage due to inflammation of the synovial membrane. Here, we review various pharmacogenetic studies investigating the association between clinical response to monoclonal antibody therapy and their target genetic polymorphisms. Numerous papers have reported that some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are related to the therapeutic response of several monoclonal antibody drugs including adalimumab, infliximab, rituximab, and tocilizumab, which target tumor necrosis factor (TNF), CD20 of B-cells, and interleukin (IL)-6. Additionally, there are some pharmacogenomic studies reporting on the association between the clinical response of monoclonal antibodies having various mechanisms, such as IL-1, IL-17, IL-23, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (RANK) inhibition. Biological therapies are currently prescribed on a “trial and error” basis for RA patients. If appropriate drug treatment is not started early, joints may deform, and long-term treatment outcomes may worsen. Pharmacogenomic approaches that predict therapeutic responses for RA patients have the potential to significantly improve patient quality of life and reduce treatment costs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Interleukin-17 (IL-17) is a cytokine that promotes activation of multiple catabolic pathways resulting in cartilage and tissue damage. It has features making it increasingly attractive as a biological marker, especially in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). However, its expression is heterogeneous; not all patients’ exhibit high IL-17 levels, and its level along the disease course is still challenging to predict.
Aim of the work
The objectives of this study were to compare serum IL-17 levels in patients with early knee OA and in RA patients, to determine its correlation with disease activity in RA and to determine if it is correlated with functional scores in both RA and OA.
Subjects and methods
Twenty early knee OA patients (32.7 ± 3.7) years were included. Diagnosis of early OA was based on Luyten et al. 2012 early knee OA classification (early OA 2012). This study also included 25 RA patients aged 32.8 ± 5.1 years, and the diagnosis was according to 2010 ACR-EULAR classification criteria for RA. The current work also included a control group of 20 healthy volunteers aged 31.9 ± 3.2 years. The serum IL-17 level was assessed by using the ELISA technique.
Results
Serum IL-17 level was significantly high in early knee OA patients (5.2 pg/ml) and was significantly higher in RA patients (5.9 pg/ml) compared to the control group (4.9 pg/ml) (P < 0.001).
Conclusions
The increased serum IL-17 level in patients with early knee OA suggests its pathogenic role in the disease. Serum IL-17 positive correlation with the severity of knee OA-related pain proposes that it may be a potential marker to target for early treatment of knee OA-related pain.

Abstract
IL-17A and IL-17F together with their coreceptor (IL-17RA/RC) were reported to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of spondyloarthritis. The group of axial spondyloarthritis comprises ankylosing spondylitis (AS), a rheumatic disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the joints in the spine. This study is aimed at investigating IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-17RA, and IL-17RC polymorphisms as potential biomarkers of disease susceptibility, clinical parameters, and anti-TNF treatment outcome in a cohort of Polish ankylosing spondylitis patients. In total, 328 subjects, including 138 AS patients and 190 healthy volunteers, participated in the study. Genotyping of IL-17A rs2275913 (G/A), IL-17F rs763780 (A/G), IL-17RA rs4819554 (A/G), and IL-17RC rs708567 (G/A) was performed on real-time PCR instrument using LightSNiP assays. No significant differences were revealed in genotype and allele distribution between patients and controls despite the association of the IL-17RC rs708567 AA homozygosity with the earlier onset of the disease. Moreover, some relationships between IL-17F rs763780 and IL-17RA rs4819554 polymorphisms with clinical parameters related to the disease activity and anti-TNF treatment outcome were observed. IL-17F rs763780 G allele was found to be associated with high disease activity and BASDAI after 6 months and poor response to the treatment while higher VAS values were more common among IL-17RA rs4819554 G variant carriers. In conclusion, the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism should be considered as a promising biomarker of disease activity and anti-TNF treatment outcome. The IL-17RA rs48419554 G allele may serve as a potential marker of disease severity in Polish AS patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory cytokine gene polymorphisms may influence the hepatic and extrahepatic HBV-related disease. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of IL-17, IL-21 gene and HBV related hepatocellular carcinoma in Chinese Han population. METHODS We performed a multi-center study comprised 866 HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and 1086 unrelated patients with a diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) as control to evaluate the effects of IL-17 (rs4711998), IL-21 SNPs (rs12508721, rs13143866 and rs2221903) and the susceptibility of HCC. MassARRAY technology was utilized to genotype. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum IL-17 and IL-21 level. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to analyze the serum viral loads. RESULTS In logistic regression analysis, our results showed the frequency of rs4711998 allele G in CHB group was significantly higher than that in HCC group (P = 0.042, 0.859(0.743-0.994)), and it is present only among females. Compared to HCC group, rs13143866 A allele was more likely to appear in HCC group (P = 0.015, 1.268 (1.049-1.532)). The frequency of AA also showed different between HCC group and CHB groups (P = 0.011, 3.135 (1.292-7.603)), which showed strong sex-specific relationships. ELISA showed a higher serum IL-17 and IL-21 expression in HCC patients compared to CHB patients (P all <0.05). Haplotype rs12508721C/rs13143866A/rs2221903T in male HCC group was statistically higher than in male CHB group(P = 0.013) but not in females (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION We suggested rs4711998 allele A as risk factors for women to develop HBV related-HCC in Chinese Han population. rs13143866 allele A as risk factors to develop HBV related-HCC in Chinese male population. Male patients with haplotype rs12508721C/rs13143866A/rs2221903T may with 1.3-fold risk for HBV-related HCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study systemically reviewed the evidence regarding associations between polymorphisms in interleukin-17 (IL-17) genes and osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility, and the relationship between circulating IL-17 levels and OA. METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of the associations between the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and risk for OA and serum/plasma IL-17 levels in OA patients and controls. RESULTS Eight studies including 2214 OA patients and 2474 controls were included. Our meta-analysis identified a significant association between OA and the AA genotype of the IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism in a pooled cohort of affected individuals, compared to the case in a pooled cohort of control participants (OR = 1.516, 95% CI = 1.260-1.825, P < 0.001), and a significant association between OA and the CC genotype of the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism (OR = 2.257, 95% CI = 1.376-3.704, p = 0.001). OA site-based stratification identified an association between the AA genotype of the IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism and the CC genotype of the IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism and knee OA, but not hip OA. Furthermore, the same patterns of significant associations between OA and the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms were identified based on homozygote contrasts. The OA patients showed significantly higher IL-17 levels than the control subjects (SMD = 1.830, 95% CI = 1.184-2.477, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis revealed associations between the IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and OA susceptibility, and the presence of significantly higher circulating IL-17 levels in OA patients.

Abstract
AIM The prevalence of hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA) varies by ethnicity, suggesting genetic heterogeneity in populations and predilection sites. Given the unknown mechanism of IL17F gene in the etiology of OA, it is necessary to examine the potential shared susceptibility of IL17F gene between knee OA and hip OA (HOA). This study aimed to evaluate the association of the IL17F gene and susceptibility to HOA in a Han Chinese population. METHODS A total of 2650 study subjects, comprising 796 HOA patients and 1854 controls, were recruited into the present study. Seven tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected for genotyping. Single marker-based genetic association analyses were conducted at both the genotypic and allelic levels. χ2 statistics were calculated for statistical testing, and odds ratios were obtained to estimate the effects of genotypes and alleles for each SNP. RESULTS The SNP rs763780 was identified to be significantly associated with the risk of HOA at both genotypic (χ2 = 12.45, P = .002) and allelic levels (χ2 = 11.83, P = .0006). A linkage disequilibrium (LD) block comprised of 3 SNPs (rs12201582-rs12203736-rs722323) was also significantly associated with the risk of HOA. In addition, rs2294835 was identified to be associated with HOA severity (χ2 = 12.10, P = .02). CONCLUSION Our results showed that IL17F gene contributed to the risk of HOA in a Han Chinese population, which would help to elucidate the pathogenesis of OA and facilitate the development of novel medicines and treatments for OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic complex multifactorial joint disease, and a major degenerative form of arthritis. Existing studies on the association between polymorphisms of the IL-17 gene and the risk of OA in different populations have yielded conflicting findings. AIM To investigate the association between polymorphisms of the IL-17 gene and the risk of OA. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis by systematically searching databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar to evaluate this association by calculating pooled odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. Moreover, subgroup analyses stratified by ethnicity and OA type were also conducted. RESULTS In a total of 6 citations involving 8 studies (2131 cases and 2299 controls), 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified. Of these 4 polymorphisms, 2 (rs2275913, rs763780) were common in five case-control studies. Together, the pooled results revealed that the A allele and genotype AA/GA of the rs2275913 polymorphism, and the C allele and genotype CC of the rs763780 polymorphism in the IL-17 gene increased the risk of OA. Furthermore, stratification analyses by ethnicity and OA type showed that the rs2275913 polymorphism increased the risk of OA among Asians and in knee/hip OA, respectively. In addition, stratification analyses also revealed that the rs763780 polymorphism increased OA risk among both Asians and Caucasians in knee/hip OA. CONCLUSION The rs763780 polymorphism of the IL-17F gene increased the risk of OA, whereas the rs2275913 polymorphism of the IL-17A gene increased the risk of OA only among Asians. Due to the limitations of this study, these findings should be validated in future studies.

Abstract
A sharp rise in osteoarthritis (OA) incidence is expected as over 25% of world population ages in the coming decade. Although OA is considered a degenerative disease, mounting evidence suggests a strong connection with chronic metabolic conditions and low-grade inflammation. OA pathology is increasingly understood as a complex interplay of multiple pathological events including oxidative stress, synovitis and immune responses revealing its intricate nature. Cellular, biochemical and molecular aspects of these pathological events along with major outcomes of the relevant research studies in this area are discussed in the present review. With reference to their published and unpublished work, the authors strongly propose synovitis as a central OA pathology and the key OA pathological events are described in connection with it. Recent research outcomes also have succeeded to establish a linkage between metabolic syndrome and OA, which has been precisely included in the present review. Impact of aging process cannot be neglected in OA. Cell senescence is an important mechanism of aging through which it facilitates development of OA like other degenerative disorders, also discussed within a frame of OA. Conclusively, the reviewers urge low-grade inflammation linked to aging and derailed immune function as a pathological platform for OA development and progression. Thus, interventions targeted to prevent inflammaging hold a promising potential in effective OA management and efforts should be invested in this direction.

BMC Rheumatol 2020; 4:30. [PMID: 32426694 PMCID: PMC7216541 DOI: 10.1186/s41927-020-00122-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2019] [Accepted: 03/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive, chronic disease characterized by articular cartilage destruction. The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17 levels have been reported elevated in serum and synovial fluid of OA patients and correlated with increased cartilage defects and bone remodeling. The aim of this study was to characterize an IL-17-mediated articular cartilage degradation ex-vivo model and to investigate IL-17 effect on cartilage extracellular matrix protein turnover. Methods Full-depth bovine femoral condyle articular cartilage explants were cultured in serum-free medium for three weeks in the absence, or presence of cytokines: IL-17A (100 ng/ml or 25 ng/ml), or 10 ng OSM combined with 20 ng/ml TNFα (O + T). RNA isolation and PCR analysis were performed on tissue lysates to confirm IL-17 receptor expression. GAG and ECM-turnover biomarker release into conditioned media was assessed with dimethyl methylene blue and ELISA assays, respectively. Gelatin zymography was used for matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and MMP9 activity assessment in conditioned media, and shotgun LC-MS/MS for identification and label-free quantification of proteins and protein fragments in conditioned media. Western blotting was used to validate MS results. Results IL-17RA mRNA was expressed in bovine full-depth articular cartilage and the treatment with IL-17A did not interfere with metabolic activity of the model. IL-17A induced cartilage breakdown; conditioned media GAG levels were 3.6-fold-elevated compared to untreated. IL-17A [100 ng/ml] induced ADAMTS-mediated aggrecan degradation fragment release (14-fold increase compared to untreated) and MMP-mediated type II collagen fragment release (6-fold-change compared to untreated). MS data analysis revealed 16 differentially expressed proteins in IL-17A conditioned media compared to untreated, and CHI3L1 upregulation in conditioned media in response to IL-17 was confirmed by Western blotting. Conclusions We showed that IL-17A has cartilage modulating potential. It induces collagen and aggrecan degradation indicating an upregulation of MMPs. This was confirmed by zymography and mass spectrometry data. We also showed that the expression of other cytokines is induced by IL-17A, which provide further insight to the pathways that are active in response to IL-17A. This exploratory study confirms that IL-17A may play a role in cartilage pathology and that the applied model may be a good tool to further investigate it.

Clin Immunol 2020; 213:108374. [PMID: 32146336 DOI: 10.1016/j.clim.2020.108374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2019] [Revised: 12/29/2019] [Accepted: 02/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between Interleukin (IL)-17A and IL-17F gene polymorphism with inflammatory arthritis were inconsistent among previous studies. This meta-analysis aimed to determine the association between IL-17A and IL-17F gene polymorphism with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS We searched Medline up to August 2019. The summary Odds Ratio (OR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was calculated to evaluate the relationship between IL-17A and IL-17F gene polymorphism with genetic susceptibility of AS, OA and RA. RESULTS A total of 19 studies with 5298 cases and 5675 healthy controls were included. There were significant associations between rs2275913 G allele with OA, RA susceptibility (P < .05) but not AS. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity indicated that rs763780 C allele was closely related to AS and OA in Caucasian populations (P < .001) but not Mongolians. A significant association between rs763780 and RA susceptibility was detected in Caucasian populations (P < .05). CONCLUSION IL-17F gene rs763780 C allele confers increased risk of inflammatory arthritis in Caucasians; IL-17A gene rs2275913 G allele are protective for OA susceptibility in Mongolians. More well-designed studies with larger sample size are needed to elucidate the role of IL-17A gene rs2275913 G allele in inflammatory arthritis, especially AS.

Abstract
Background Knee osteoarthritis is a joint disease which is characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage and subsequent subchondral bone changes. Polymorphisms of IL-17A/F gene were the recognized candidate genes associated with knee osteoarthritis risk although the results were conflicting. The aim of this study was to determine whether IL-17A(rs2275913) and IL-17F(rs763780) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to knee osteoarthritis. Method Literature search was performed in PubMed, Medline, Cochrane Library, Web of science, Embase, and Google Scholar (last search was updated on June 20, 2019), and assessing this association was performed by calculating odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals. Statistical heterogeneity was quantitatively evaluated by using the Q statistic with its p value and I2 statistic. Result Six case-control based studies were included involving IL-17A(rs2275913) (2134 cases and 2306 controls) and IL-17F(rs763780) (2134 cases and 2426 controls). The overall analysis suggested that the A allele of the rs2275913 polymorphism, and the C allele of the rs763780 polymorphism in the IL-17 gene may increase the risk of OA. However, subgroup analysis revealed that no association between IL-17A(rs2275913) gene and knee OA risk was found in Caucasian population. Conclusions This meta-analysis revealed that the IL-17A(rs2275913) gene polymorphisms may increase the risk of knee OA in Asians, and the IL-17F(rs763780) gene polymorphisms may increase the risk of knee OA both in Asians and Caucasians. However, because of the limitations of the present study, additional larger studies are needed to confirm our findings in the future.

Abstract
AIM This meta-analysis was conducted with the aim of collecting and synthesizing the existing evidence on the association of interleukin-17A (IL-17A)-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C gene polymorphisms and osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility. METHODS Six electronic databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang were systematically searched for potentially relevant studies previous to June 2019. The strengths of association were estimated by summary odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) in a model-free approach. Heterogeneity test and sensitivity analysis were also conducted to guarantee the reliability of this study. RESULTS Six eligible case-control studies comprising 1989 OA patients and 2116 healthy controls were obtained for the meta-analysis. Dominant model was confirmed to be the optimal genetic model (MM + Mm vs mm). The pooled estimate supported that IL-17A-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C polymorphisms were significantly associated with OA susceptibility in the overall population (IL-17A-197G/A: GG + GA vs AA, OR = 0.69, 95%CI 0.57-0.80; P < .001; IL-17F-7488T/C, TT + TC vs CC, OR = 0.46, 95%CI 0.29-0.71, P < .001). However, subgroup analyses suggested the association only existed in Asians and knee OA. CONCLUSION The findings of the present study indicate that IL-17A-197G/A and IL-17F-7488T/C polymorphisms are positively associated to reduced risk of knee OA, especially in Asian populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This meta-analysis aims to summarize and estimate the relationship between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility and two polymorphisms of interleukin-17F (IL-17F) 7488A/G and 7383A/G. MATERIALS AND METHODS PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched up to 01 July 2017. Case-control studies with genotype frequencies data for 7488A/G and 7383A/G were included. The pooled effects were calculated by fixed-effect model or random effects model. RESULTS A total of seven publications with 1,409 RA patients and 1,303 controls were included in the present meta-analysis. The results indicated that 7488A/G was significantly associated with increased susceptibility to RA (GA vs. AA: odds ratio [OR]=1.43, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07-1.90, p=0.02; GG vs. AA: OR=3.22, 95% CI: 1.54-6.74, p=0.002; GA+GG vs. AA: OR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.02-2.42, p=0.04; GG vs. GA+AA: OR=3.05, 95% CI: 1.46-6.39, p=0.003). In subgroup analysis, 7488A/G was a strong risk factor in Europeans but not in Americans or Africans. No significant association was found between 7383A/G and RA in overall population or ethnic subgroups by all genetic model comparisons. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis provided evidence that IL-17F 7488A/G polymorphism is associated with increased RA susceptibility, while no clear correlation was found between 7383A/G and RA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is mediated by various types of cytokines, growth factors, and inflammatory factors that the role of the interleukin-17 family in this disease is becoming increasingly apparent. The aim of this study is to determine the association between the common polymorphisms of IL17A (including rs2275913) and IL17F (including rs2397084 and rs763780) genes with the knee osteoarthritis risk which was followed by a bioinformatics approach. In a case-control study, 254 participants consisting of 127 healthy individuals and 127 subjects with knee osteoarthritis referring to Shahid Beheshti Hospital dependents on Kashan University of Medical Sciences (Kashan, Iran) were enrolled. After samples collection, the polymorphisms genotyping was determined by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Finally, some bioinformatics tools were used to analyze the molecular effects of the three studied polymorphisms. Data analysis showed a significant association between rs2275913-GA genotype and the decreased risk of knee osteoarthritis (OR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.33-0.97, P = .040). However, rs763780-AG genotype (OR = 2.29, 95%CI = 1.11-4.69, P = .024) and rs763780-G allele (OR = 2.01, 95% CI = 1.09-3.72, P = .026) were associated with an increased risk of knee osteoarthritis. However, no significant associations were found between the rs2397084 polymorphism and knee osteoarthritis risk. Our structural analysis revealed that the rs2275913 polymorphism could create a new binding site for TFII-I at the promoter region of IL17A. Also, rs2397084 and rs763780 could significantly affect the function and structure of IL17A. Based on our findings, rs2275913 and rs763780 could be considered as protective and risk factors for knee osteoarthritis, respectively. Therefore, these polymorphisms can be considered as biomarkers for the screening of knee osteoarthritis susceptible persons.

Abstract
Interleukin-17A/F (IL-17A/F) might play a role in the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA), but several studies exploring the association between IL-17A/F single nucleotide polymorphisms and OA in different populations present inconsistent results. Thus, this case-control study, involving 410 OA cases and 507 controls, was aimed to investigate such association in a Chinese population. Genotyping was performed using standard polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism. It was found that AA genotype or A allele carriers of IL-17A gene rs2275913 polymorphism were associated with OA susceptibility. Stratified analyses showed IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism was evidently associated with a significantly increased risk for OA among males, <60 years old patients, smokers, and drinkers. No significant association was observed between IL-17F gene rs763780 polymorphism and OA risk. In conclusion, IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism is involved in the development of OA in Chinese Han population. This finding should be confirmed by a larger study from diverse ethnic populations.

Abstract
Background IL-17 expressed by Th17 cells play a crucial role in tissue inflammation by induction of proinflammatory and neutrophil mobilizing cytokines, and IL-17 polymorphisms are associated with colorectal cancer (CRC). Objective We investigated the expression of IL-17 and the association of IL-17 gene polymorphisms with CRC susceptibility in a Middle East population. Materials and methods The study included 117 diagnosed CRC patients and 100 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. IL-17A rs2275913 (G197A) and IL-17F rs763780 (T7488C) single nucleotide polymorphisms, mRNA, and protein levels of IL-17A were assessed. Results We observed significant association between rs2275913 in IL-17A and susceptibility to CRC (p = 0.016228). The AG and AA genotypes conferred 2-fold and 2.8-fold, respectively, higher risk of developing CRC compared with individuals having GG genotype. Stratification of the data based on gender and age revealed very strong association of CRC with IL17A rs2275913 only in males and “AG” genotype in patients ≤57 years of age at the time of disease diagnosis. The rs763780 in IL-17F was not linked with CRCs in our cohort. Furthermore, IL-17A mRNA expression in CRCs was significantly elevated compared to adjacent normal tissues, particularly in early stages of disease (p = 0.0005). Strong immunoreactivity to IL-17A protein was observed in 70% of early stage relative to 30% of late-stage tumors. Conclusion The IL-17A G197A variant may be utilized as a genetic screening marker in assessing CRC risk, and its expression can be used as a biomarker for early detection of CRC in the Saudi population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IL-23/Th17 signaling pathway plays a crucial role in the cell-mediated immune response against bacterial infections and also in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Recent studies indicate that Th17 cell-associated cytokines are involved in the progression and maintenance of valvular lesions in rheumatic heart disease (RHD). Variants in the genes of cytokines that are potentially involved in Th17 response may influence interindividual differences in their expression levels, thereby contributing to the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases such as RHD. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study is to investigate the association of IL17A, IL17F, and IL23R gene variants with the risk perception of RHD. METHODS A total of 225 individuals (99 RHD patients and 126 healthy siblings) were recruited for the study. The IL17A (rs2275913), IL17F (rs763780), and IL23R (rs10889677) polymorphisms were determined by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphisms and amplification-refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction methods, respectively. RESULTS The frequency of IL17A (rs2275913) A/A genotype was significantly high in pooled RHD patients (odds ratio [OR] = 2.76; pc = 0.021), rheumatic fever (RF) patients (OR = 14.5; pc = 0.0001), and mitral valvular lesions patients (OR = 2.74; pc = 0.039) when compared to healthy siblings. However, the IL17F (rs763780) and IL23R (rs10889677) polymorphisms did not show any association with RHD. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that IL17A (rs2275913) polymorphism is associated with the development of RF/RHD in South Indian population. Further studies are required to substantiate the association of these genes with the disease risk.

Abstract
Primary osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of a joint disease. It has a polygenic risk inheritance pattern and affects older people. The etiology of this disease is not fully understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between polymorphisms in pro-inflammatory interleukin-17 (IL17A and IL17F) and anti-inflammatory Toll-like Receptor 10 (TLR10) genes with the risk for development of advanced stage hip and knee primary OA in the Croatian population. A total of 500 OA patients and 597 controls were genotyped for IL17A SNP (rs2275913), IL17F SNPs (rs763780 and rs1889570), and TLR10 (rs11096957) genes. The allelic and genotypic frequencies of IL17F SNP (rs763780) showed statistically significant differences in comparisons of controls with hip-but not knee-OA patients. The major allele (T) of rs763780 was associated with the lower risk for developing hip OA (p = 7.9 × 10-4 , OR = 0.45, 95%CI = 0.27-0.74), whereas the minor allele (C) was associated with susceptibility to hip OA (p = 7.9 × 10-4 , OR = 2.24, 95%CI = 1.35-3.72). The genotype T/T was associated with the protection to hip OA (p = 3.9 × 10-4 , OR = 0.41, 95%CI = 0.24-0.70), and, lastly, the genotype T/C was associated with the higher risk to acquiring hip OA (p = 2.6 × 10-4 , OR = 2.50, 95%CI = 1.47-4.25). TLR10 SNP rs11096957 was found significantly associated with predisposition to hip OA (p = 0.04, OR = 1.41, 95%CI = 1.02-1.94) but not knee OA. Our findings suggest that hip OA in Croatian population might have a different genetic risk regarding the IL17 and TLR10 gene locus than knee OA. © 2017 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis (VMC). However, the role of IL-17A polymorphisms in susceptibility to VMC has not been reported to date. The aim of this study was to explore the association between IL-17A variants as well as serum IL-17 levels with VMC. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs2275913, rs3819025, and rs3748067) were analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method in 236 VMC patients and 259 controls from China. Serum IL-17A levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. Multivariable logistic regression analysis that the rs2275913 AA genotype and the haplotype -197A/+45G/+1249G (AGG) were associated with an increased risk of VMC (all P < 0.05). Consistent with these findings, the rs2275913 AA genotype was linked to higher serum IL-17A compared to GG/AG genotype (all P < 0.001). We observed no associations between the other two SNPs and risk of VMC. Serum IL-17A levels were significantly higher in the VMC group than controls (P < 0.001) and gradually increased with the increase of New York Heart Association grade in VMC patients (P < 0.05). Spearman correlation test revealed that the serum IL-17A level was correlated with the cardiac damage and left ventricular systolic functions among VMC patients (all P < 0.05). Our study reveals that IL-17A expression may contribute to the development and severity of VMC. The SNP rs2275913 in the IL-17A gene might exert influence on susceptibility to VMC via linking with the serum IL-17A level.

Abstract
The aim of our study was to investigate the association of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) polymorphisms with IL-17A serum levels and risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in a Chinese population. 392 IS patients and 443 controls were included in this study. The polymorphisms of IL-17A gene were determined by Snapshot SNP genotyping assay and DNA sequencing. Serum IL-17A levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We found that the G allele, GA and GG genotypes, and GA/GG vs. AA model of rs2275913 polymorphism were associated with increased risk of IS even after adjusted by clinical characters such as age, gender and diabetes (G vs. A: OR=1.27, 95% CI, 1.05∼1.54, P=0.014; GA vs. AA: OR=1.72, 95% CI, 1.05∼2.81, P=0.032; GG vs. AA: OR=1.99, 95% CI, 1.08∼3.67, P=0.028; GA/GG vs. AA: OR=1.78, 95% CI, 1.11∼2.86, P=0.017). Serum IL-17A levels were increased in IS patients compared with controls (P<0.01). Individuals carrying rs2275913 GA or GG genotype present higher serum IL-17A levels compared with the rs2275913AA genotype in the IS group (P<0.01). In conclusion, this is the first study reporting the rs2275913 polymorphism as a risk factor for IS, which may be partly explained by influencing the levels of IL-17A cytokine.

Abstract
OA is the most common joint disorder in the world, but there are no approved therapeutics to prevent disease progression. Historically, OA has been considered a wear-and-tear joint disease, and efforts to identify and develop disease-modifying therapeutics have predominantly focused on direct inhibition of cartilage degeneration. However, there is now increasing evidence that inflammation is a key mediator of OA joint pathology, and also that the link between obesity and OA is not solely due to excessive load-bearing, suggesting therefore that targeting inflammation in OA could be a rewarding therapeutic strategy. In this review we therefore re-evaluate historical clinical trial data on anti-inflammatory therapeutics in OA patients, highlight some of the more promising emerging therapeutic targets and discuss the implications for future clinical trial design.

Abstract
This meta-analysis examined the relationship between IL-17A (rs2275913) and IL17F (rs763780 T/C) gene polymorphisms and the risk of inflammatory diseases, including periodontitis, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and inflammatory bowel disease. PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Elsevier Science Direct were searched, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to estimate the strength of the association. A total of 25 studies comprising 7,474 cases and 10,628 controls were included. Significant associations were found between inflammatory diseases and IL-17A rs2275913 A versus G allele (OR = 1.197, P = 0.033) and the GA versus GG genotype in the codominant model (OR = 1.406, P = 0.036). Our findings suggested that individuals who carry the rs2275913 A allele or GA genotype have a 20% or 41%-increased risk of inflammatory diseases compared with subjects with the G allele or GG genotype, respectively. With respect to IL-17F rs763780, the C versus T allele (OR = 1.94; P = 0.040), the TC versus TT (OR = 1.39; P = 0.041), the CC versus TT (OR = 2.71; P = 0.003), as well as the TC + CC versus TT genotype (OR = 1.83; P = 0.032) were risk factors for RA. In summary, our pooled analysis indicated that the IL-17A (rs2275913) and IL17F (rs763780 T/C) increased the RA risk.

Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease characterized by gradual degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the cartilage and bone. The ECM of cartilage is a highly specified structure that is mainly composed of type II collagen and provides tensile strength to the tissue via aggrecan and proteoglycans. However, changes in the ECM composition and structure can lead to loss of collagen type II and network integrity. Several risk factors have been correlated with OA including age, genetic predisposition, hereditary factors, obesity, mechanical injuries, and joint trauma. Certain genetic association studies have identified several genes associated with OA using genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Results We identified several novel genetic variants affecting genes that function in several candidate causative pathways including immune responses, inflammatory and cartilage degradation such as SELP, SPN, and COL6A6. Conclusions The approach of whole-exome sequencing can be a promising method to identify genetic mutations that can influence the OA disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate cross-sectional associations between serum levels of resistin and interleukin-17 (IL-17) and cartilage defects and bone marrow lesions (BMLs) in patients with knee symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS One hundred and ninety-four consecutively-selected patients with knee symptomatic OA (mean 55.4 years, range 34-74, 87% females) were included in Anhui Osteoarthritis (AHOA) Study. Knee cartilage defects and BMLs were determined at different sites using T2-weighted fat-suppressed fast spin echo MRI. Serum resistin, IL-17, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were measured using ELISA. RESULTS In multivariable analyses, serum resistin was positively associated with cartilage defects at lateral femoral, lateral tibial, and medial tibial (all p < 0.05) sites. The significant associations were also present with BMLs at lateral femoral and tibial sites (ORs: 1.13-1.19, both p < 0.05). In patients with the highest quartile of hs-CRP (>2.45 pg/ml), IL-17 was positively and significantly associated with cartilage defect score at nearly all sites (ORs: 1.33-1.44, all p < 0.05), and BMLs at lateral and medial femoral sites (ORs: 1.26-1.51, both p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Serum levels of resistin were positively and independently associated with cartilage defects and BMLs in patients with knee OA. Serum IL-17 was significantly associated with cartilage defects and BMLs in patients with an increased inflammatory status. These suggest that metabolic and inflammatory mechanisms may have a role to play in knee OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin (IL)-17 has been shown to play an important role in tissue inflammation and in the pathogenesis of immune-related liver damage. Genetic variations in IL-17 gene may be associated with the development of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, literature is scanty regarding their association. METHODS We conducted a case-control study including 433 subjects (171 healthy controls, 130 patients with chronic hepatitis B [CHB]; and 132 patients with HBV-related liver cirrhosis [HBV-LC] to assess the association between IL-17A rs4711998, IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and risk of CHB and HBV-LC. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and DNA sequencing. RESULTS Our results revealed a statistically significant association between IL-17A rs4711998 G allele and increased risk of HBV-LC risk (OR=1.541, 95% CI 1.057-2.246, P=0.025). Subjects carrying the IL-17A rs4711998 AG genotype were 1.75 times more likely to develop HBV-LC (OR=1.757, 95% CI 1.096-2.817, P=0.026). Stratification analysis indicated that IL-17A rs4711998 G allele and AG genotype enhanced the risk of HBV-LC development among men and older age (≥50years) subject groups. In addition, we found that GCT haplotype also might be a risk factor for HBV-LC (OR=2.448, 95% CI 1.137-5.271, P=0.019). Furthermore, no significant association between IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms and CHB, HBV-LC risk was observed (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Our data provide the first evidence that the IL-17A rs4711998 genetic variant may contribute to HBV-LC susceptibility in a Chinese population.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a complex disorder characterized by degenerative articular cartilage and is largely attributed to genetic risk factors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are common DNA variants that have shown promising and efficiency, compared with positional cloning, to map candidate genes of complex diseases, including OA. In this study, we aim to provide an overview of multiple SNPs from a number of genes that have recently been linked to OA susceptibility. We also performed a comprehensive meta-analysis to evaluate the association of SNP rs7639618 of double von Willebrand factor A domains (DVWA) gene with OA susceptibility. A systematic search of studies on the association of SNPs with susceptibility to OA was conducted in PubMed and Google scholar. Studies subjected to meta-analysis include human and case-control studies that met the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium model and provide sufficient data to calculate an odds ratio (OR). A total of 9500 OA cases and 9365 controls in 7 case-control studies relating to SNP rs7639618 were included in this study and the ORs with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Over 50 SNPs from different genes have been shown to be associated with either hip (23), or knee (20), or both (13) OA. The ORs of these SNPs for OA and the subtypes are not consistent. As to SNP rs7639618 of DVWA, increased knee OA risk was observed in all genetic models analyzed. Specifically, people from Asian with G-allele showed significantly increased risk of knee OA (A versus G: OR = 1.28, 95% CI 1.13-1.46; AA versus GG: OR = 1.60, 95% CI 1.25-2.05; GA versus GG: OR = 1.31, 95% CI 1.18-1.44; AA versus GA+GG: OR = 1.34, 95% CI 1.12-1.61; AA+GA versus GG: OR = 1.40, 95% CI 1.19-1.64), but not in Caucasians or with hip OA. Our results suggest that multiple SNPs play different roles in the pathogenesis of OA and its subtypes; SNP rs7639618 of DVWA gene is associated with a significantly increased risk of knee OA in Asians. Given the limited sample size, further studies are needed to evaluate this observation.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is highly prevalent and a leading cause of disability worldwide. Despite the global burden of OA, diagnostic tests and treatments for the molecular or early subclinical stages are still not available for clinical use. In recent years, there has been a large shift in the understanding of OA as a "wear and tear" disease to an inflammatory disease. This has been demonstrated through various studies using MRI, ultrasound, histochemistry, and biomarkers. It would of great value to be able to readily identify subclinical and/or sub-acute inflammation, particularly in such a way as to be appropriate for a clinical setting. Here we review several types of biomarkers associated with OA in human studies that point to a role of inflammation in OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin-16 (IL-16), a pleiotropic cytokine, plays a fundamental role in inflammatory diseases. This study investigates the association between IL-16 polymorphisms and the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA) in a Chinese population. METHODS The IL-16 rs11556218, rs4072111, and rs4778889 polymorphisms were determined in 150 knee OA cases and 147 healthy controls through polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS The results suggested that the variants in IL-16 gene rs11556218 site were associated with a decreased knee OA risk after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and smoking and drinking status (TG vs. TT: OR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.53-0.89; P = 0.006; GG vs. TT: OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.45-0.90; P = 0.042; dominant model: OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.29-0.87; P = 0.002; G vs. T allele: OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.66-0.90; P = 0.003). Similarly, subjects bearing the rs4072111 variant genotypes and alleles also had a lower susceptibility to knee OA compared with those bearing the wild-type (CT vs. CC: OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.53-0.83; P = 0.002; TT vs. CC: OR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.40-0.82; P = 0.027; dominant model: OR, 0.65; 95%, CI 0.52-0.80; P <0.001; T vs. C allele: OR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.58-0.81; P <0.001). Further, the C allele and the combined genotype (CC+CT) of rs4778889 were associated with a slightly decreased risk of knee OA. In addition, we found two high-risk haplotypes: TTT (OR, 3.70) and GCC (OR, 6.22). Finally, serum IL-16 levels of knee OA patients were significantly higher than those of controls (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Despite the small sample size, this is the first study suggesting IL-16 gene polymorphisms to be associated with the risk of knee OA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have revealed an association between interleukin 17A (IL17A) polymorphisms and the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Japanese and Caucasian patients. We hypothesized that IL17A polymorphisms might also affect RA susceptibility in the Chinese population. METHODS We studied IL17A rs2275913 G/A, rs3819024 A/G, rs3819025 G/A, rs4711998 A/G, rs8193036 C/T and rs8193037 G/A polymorphisms in 615 RA patients and 839 controls in a Chinese population. Genotyping was performed using a custom-by-design 48-Plex SNP scan™ Kit. RESULTS Our results indicated that IL17A rs4711998 A/G and IL17A rs8193037 G/A polymorphisms were not associated with RA, and IL17A rs2275913 G/A and IL17A rs3819024 A/G variant alleles decrease the risk of RA, while IL17A rs3819025 G/A and IL17A rs8193036 C/T variant alleles increase the risk of RA. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that IL17A polymorphisms may be associated with RA. Future larger studies with other ethnic populations are required to confirm current findings.

Abstract
Background. Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by the intracellular acid-fast bacilli Mycobacterium leprae; it has been determined that genetic factors of the host play an important role in the disease susceptibility. Thus, in this case-control study, we evaluated the possible association between the IL-17A G-197A (rs227593) and IL-17F A7488G (His161Arg, rs763780) gene SNPs and susceptibility to leprosy disease in Mexican population. Methods. Seventy-five leprosy patients and sixty-nine control subjects were included. Both SNPs were genotyped with the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. Results. We found nonsignificant differences in genotype and allele frequencies related to IL-17A G-197A (rs227593) and IL-17F A7488G (His161Arg, rs763780) gene SNPs in MB as well as subclinical forms of leprosy disease versus healthy individuals. Conclusions. Since the sample size is not large enough, it is difficult to sustain an association of susceptibility to leprosy with genotypes or allele frequencies of IL-17A G-197A (rs227593) and IL-17F A7488G (His161Arg, rs763780), suggesting that IL-17 polymorphisms have no significant role in the genetic susceptibility to development of this disease in the Mexican Mestizo population.

Association between interleukin 8 -251 A/T and +781 C/T polymorphisms and osteoarthritis risk. Immunol Lett 2014; 162:207-11.

Abstract
PURPOSE Interleukin 8 (IL-8), as a member of the CXC chemokine family, has a regulatory role in joint inflammation and cartilage degradation, and contribute to the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis. The aim of the current study was to examine the influence of the IL-8 gene polymorphisms at positions -251 (rs4073) and +781 (rs2227306) on the risk of osteoarthritis. METHODS This hospital-based case-control study comprised 150 patients with osteoarthritis and 150 age- and gender-matched controls. IL-8 251 A/T and +781 C/T polymorphisms were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS Patients with osteoarthritis had a significantly higher frequency of IL-8 -251 TT genotype [odds ratio (OR)=2.16, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.09, 4.26; P=0.03], IL-8 -251 T allele (OR=1.41, 95% CI=1.02, 1.94; P=0.04), IL-8 +781 TT genotype (OR=2.79, 95% CI=1.10, 7.08; P=0.03) and IL-8 +781 T allele (OR=1.48, 95% CI=1.02, 2.14; P=0.04) than controls. But the findings are less emphatic by the Bonferroni correction. When stratifying by body mass index, type, articular involvement, and Kellgren-Lawrence grade, no significant differences were found in any groups. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, the current data suggested that the TT genotype and T allele of the IL-8 gene polymorphisms at positions -251 and +781 might confer a high risk of osteoarthritis. In the future, additional well-designed large studies were required for the validation of our results.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic disease of human joints. The basis of pathologic changes involves all the tissues forming the joint; already, at an early stage, it has the nature of inflammation with varying degrees of severity. An analysis of the complex relationships indicates that the processes taking place inside the joint are not merely a set that (seemingly) only includes catabolic effects. Apart from them, anti-inflammatory anabolic processes also occur continually. These phenomena are driven by various mediators, of which the key role is attributed to the interactions within the cytokine network. The most important group controlling the disease seems to be inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, TNFα, IL-6, IL-15, IL-17, and IL-18. The second group with antagonistic effect is formed by cytokines known as anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-4, IL-10, and IL-13. The role of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the pathogenesis of OA with respect to inter- and intracellular signaling pathways is still under investigation. This paper summarizes the current state of knowledge. The cytokine network in OA is put in the context of cells involved in this degenerative joint disease. The possibilities for further implementation of new therapeutic strategies in OA are also pointed.
