The role of IL10 and IL17 gene polymorphisms in treatment response in children and adolescents with severe asthma. J Bras Pneumol 2024; 49:e20230092. [PMID: 38232251 PMCID: PMC10769478 DOI: 10.36416/1806-3756/e20230092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether polymorphisms of the IL10 and IL17 genes are associated with severe asthma control and bronchodilator reversibility in children and adolescents with severe asthma. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study, nested within a prospective cohort study of patients with severe asthma. Two outcomes were evaluated: asthma control and bronchodilator reversibility. We extracted DNA from peripheral blood and genotyped three single nucleotide polymorphisms: rs3819024 and rs2275913 in the IL17A gene; and rs3024498 in the IL10 gene. For the association analyses, we performed logistic regression in three genetic models (allelic, additive, and dominant). RESULTS The rs3024498 C allele in the IL10 gene was associated with failure to achieve asthma control despite regular treatment (p = 0.02). However, the G allele of the IL17A rs3819024 polymorphism was associated with failure to respond to stimulation with a b2 agonist. The rs2275913 polymorphism of the IL17A gene showed no relationship with asthma control or bronchodilator reversibility. CONCLUSIONS In pediatric patients with severe asthma, the IL10 polymorphism appears to be associated with failure to achieve clinical control, whereas the IL17A polymorphism appears to be associated with a worse bronchodilator response. Knowledge of the involvement of these polymorphisms opens future directions for pharmacogenetic studies and for the implementation of individualized therapeutic management of severe asthma in pediatric patients.

Understanding and controlling asthma in Latin America: A review of recent research informed by the SCAALA programme. Clin Transl Allergy 2023; 13:e12232.

Abstract
Asthma is an important health concern in Latin America (LA) where it is associated with variable prevalence and disease burden between countries. High prevalence and morbidity have been observed in some regions, particularly marginalized urban populations. Research over the past 10 years from LA has shown that childhood disease is primarily non-atopic. The attenuation of atopy may be explained by enhanced immune regulation induced by intense exposures to environmental factors such as childhood infections and poor environmental conditions of the urban poor. Non-atopic symptoms are associated with environmental and lifestyle factors including poor living conditions, respiratory infections, psychosocial stress, obesity, and a diet of highly processed foods. Ancestry (particularly African) and genetic factors increase asthma risk, and some of these factors may be specific to LA settings. Asthma in LA tends to be poorly controlled and depends on access to health care and medications. There is a need to improve management and access to medication through primary health care. Future research should consider the heterogeneity of asthma to identify relevant endotypes and underlying causes. The outcome of such research will need to focus on implementable strategies relevant to populations living in resource-poor settings where the disease burden is greatest.

Association of Interleukin Genes IL10 and IL10RB with Parameters of Overweight in Military Students. Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13020291. [PMID: 35205336 PMCID: PMC8871646 DOI: 10.3390/genes13020291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Revised: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/29/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: To date, nearly 300 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, and other adiposity traits have been identified by GWAS. With regards to IL10, at least 49 IL10-associated polymorphisms have been reported. However, little is known regarding the relationship between SNPs of the IL10 gene and the risk of obesity in young men. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between SNPs of the IL10 and IL10RB genes and the risk of obesity in young men. Methods: A cohort of 139 male students were enrolled and the following IL10 and IL10RB SNPs were analyzed: IL10 (rs1518110), IL10 (rs3024491), IL10RB (rs2834167). The subjects were divided into groups depending on obesity parameters: body mass index (BMI), fat mass index (FMI) and fat percentage (Fat%). Statistical analysis was conducted for a single locus and haplotypes, an association between SNPs and body composition parameters was tested with four genetic models: dominant, recessive, codominant and overdominant mode of inheritance (MOI). Results: Significant association was found for interaction IL10 (rs1518110) × IL10RB (rs2834167) with Fat% value exceeding 20 in codominant (p-value = 0.03, OR = 0.34, 95% CI 0.08 1.44) and dominant model (p-value = 0.03, OR = 0.34, 95% CI 0.08 1.44) Conclusion: Our study shows for the first time that there is a correlation between the occurrence of specific polymorphisms of IL10 gene (rs1518110, rs3024491 and rs2834167) and the possibility of obesity.
