Abstract
Abstract
Background
The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), an inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal system has increased. IBD, characterized by aberrant immune responses against antigens, is thought to be caused by the invasion of enterobacteria. The pathogenesis of IBD is complicated, hence novel effective therapeutic agents are warranted. Therefore, this study evaluates the potential of Artemisia argyi, a medicinal herb, in alleviating IBD.
Methods
The effectiveness of the A. argyi ethanol extract was verified both in vitro and in vivo. Inflammation was induced in RAW 264.7 cells by 1 μg/mL of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and by 3% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) in a DSS-induced colitis mouse model. During the ten-day colitis induction, 200 mg/kg of A. argyi ethanol extract was orally administered to the treatment group. Levels of inflammation-related proteins and genes were analyzed in the colon, serum, and lymphoid tissues, i.e., Peyer’s patches (PPs) and spleen. The chemical constituent of the A. argyi ethanol extract was identified using an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) analysis.
Results
A. argyi ethanol extract treatment ameliorated IBD symptoms and reduced the expression of inflammation-related proteins and genes in the colon and serum samples. Furthermore, A. argyi treatment induced the activation of anti-oxidative associated proteins, such as nuclear factor-erythroid factor 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1); and the treatment have also inhibited nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), a central mediator of inflammatory responses. A. argyi enhanced the immunomodulatory effects in the PPs and spleen, which may stem from interleukin-10 (IL-10) upregulation. Chemical analysis identified a total of 28 chemical compounds, several of which have been reported to exert anti-inflammatory effects.
Conclusions
The effectiveness of the A. argyi ethanol extract in alleviating IBD was demonstrated; application of the extract successfully mitigated IBD symptoms, and enhanced immunomodulatory responses in lymphoid tissues. These findings suggest A. argyi as a promising herbal medicine for IBD treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Changes in cytokine expression have been frequently found in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Cytokine values outside the normal range may be somewhat related to common polymorphisms within cytokine genes. OBJECTIVE The present study was designed to investigate the possible association between polymorphisms within Interleukin IL-4 and IL-10 genes and susceptibility to and clinical features of IBD. METHODS The study population was composed of 140 healthy controls and 75 patients with IBD (40 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and 35 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC)). Genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers. RESULTS Higher frequencies for the C allele of IL-4-590 polymorphism (P < 0.0001; odds ratio [OR], 5.68; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 3.28-9.83) and for the T allele of IL-4-1098 polymorphism (P = 0.016; OR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.11-3.02) were observed in the whole group of IBD patients. The IL-4-590 C allele was also significantly overrepresented when IBD patients were subdivided into CD and UC (P < 0.0001; OR, 5.2-6.28). While the IL-4-1098 T allele was present at higher frequencies in patients with UC (P = 0.05; OR, 1.95), but not in CD (P = 0.09). Multiple pairwise comparisons indicated that genotypes of all polymorphisms investigated within IL-4 gene are correlated with IBD, CD, and UC. Haplotype analysis showed that the IL-4-1098/-590 TC haplotype might predispose individuals to IBD, CD, and UC whereas the IL-4-1098/-590 TT and GC haplotypes have a protective effect. On the contrary, neither allele nor genotype frequencies of IL-10 polymorphisms (IL-10-1082 A > G, IL-10-592 A > C, and IL-10-819 T > C) were associated with IBD, CD, or UC. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that IL-4 polymorphisms might play a role in susceptibility to IBD and its major subtypes in the Iranian population.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), manifesting as Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is characterized by recurring episodes of inflammation in gastrointestinal tract, in which aberrant production of regulatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) presumably plays important role. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that affect IL-10 production, such as rs1800896 (G/A) at position -1082 and rs1800871 (C/T) at position -819 in the promoter region of the IL10 gene, have been associated with CD and/or UC, but the results were inconsistent. Another SNP that may alter IL-10 production, rs3024505 (C/T) located immediately downstream of the IL10 gene has been recently identified. T allele of rs3024505 was associated with both UC and CD in Western populations, but the studies from East European countries are lacking. Therefore, our aim was to assess the association of rs3024505, rs1800896 and rs1800871 with Serbian IBD patients. To this end, 107 CD and 99 UC patients and 255 healthy controls were genotyped. As a result, T allele of rs3024505 was associated with CD at allelic, genotypic (GT genotype) and haplotypic (GCCT haplotype) level, suggesting potential role of this variant in susceptibility to CD. In contrast, CD patients carrying C allele of rs3024505 had significantly increased risk of anemia and stricturing/penetrating behavior. No association was observed between rs3024505 and UC or SNPs in IL10 promoter region and any form of IBD. In conclusion, rs3024505 SNP flanking the IL10 gene is associated with susceptibility and severity of disease in Serbian CD patients, further validating its role as a potential biomarker in IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The -819C/T polymorphism in interleukin 10 (IL-10) gene has been reported to be associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but the previous results are conflicting. MATERIALS AND METHODS The present study aimed at investigating the association between this polymorphism and risk of IBD using a meta-analysis.PubMed, Web of Science,EMBASE,google scholar and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were systematically searched to identify relevant publications from their inception to April 2016.Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated using fixed- or random-effects models. RESULTS A total of 7 case-control studies containing 1890 patients and 2929 controls were enrolled into this meta-analysis, and our results showed no association between IL-10 gene -819C/T polymorphism and IBD risk(TT vs. CC:OR=0.81,95%CI 0.64-1.04;CT vs. CC:OR=0.92,95%CI 0.81-1.05; Dominant model: OR=0.90,95%CI 0.80-1.02; Recessive model: OR=0.84,95%CI 0.66-1.06). In a subgroup analysis by nationality, the -819C/T polymorphism was not associated with IBD in both Asians and Caucasians. In the subgroup analysis stratified by IBD type, significant association was found in Crohn's disease(CD)(CT vs. CC:OR=0.68,95%CI 0.48-0.97). CONCLUSION In summary, the present meta-analysis suggests that the IL-10 gene -819C/T polymorphism may be associated with CD risk.

Abstract
Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is important pleiotropic immunoregulatory cytokine which gene is located on chromosome 1 at 1q31-32. There are many genetic variants of IL-10 gene. However, the most studied are two dinucleotide repeats (microsatellites), IL10.G and IL10.R, located 1.2 kb and 4 kb upstream of the transcription start site and three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) -1082(G/A), -819(C/T) and -592(C/A). A large number of studies have shown that IL-10 gene polymorphisms are associated with different diseases and play an important role in pathophysiology and clinical course of these diseases. This review summarizes published literature knowledge about the association of IL-10 polymorphisms and expression patterns with asthma, systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis and some neoplasms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene is considered as a potential candidate gene in schizophrenia association studies. The polymorphisms on IL-10 gene have been reported to be linked with susceptibility to the development of schizophrenia within consistent results. AIMS The aim of this case-control study was to examine whether the -1082A/G, -819T/C, and -592A/C polymorphisms in IL-10 gene are implicated in schizophrenia development in the Saudi population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Molecular genotyping of IL-10 gene polymorphisms was performed to analyze the genotypes and alleles distribution of three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in patients (n = 181) and healthy individuals as control group (n = 211). RESULTS The frequencies of GA genotype at -1082, and CC genotype at positions -592 and -819 were significantly higher in schizophrenia patients compared to healthy subjects suggesting that GA, CC, and CC genotypes are susceptible to schizophrenia. The ACC haplotype known to be associated with intermediate production of IL-10 are more prevalent in our schizophrenia patients. On the other hand, genotypes -1082 GG, -819 CT, and -592 CA of IL-10 were more prevalent in healthy controls suggesting protective effects of GA, CT, and CA genotypes against schizophrenia. There was no significant association of IL-10 polymorphisms with sex or positive or negative symptoms of schizophrenia. CONCLUSION This study indicates that the IL-10 gene polymorphisms play a significant role in the etiology of schizophrenia in Saudi Arabians patients.

Abstract
Four hundred and ninety-five patients (390 and 105 grafted from unrelated and sibling (SIB) donors, respectively) and their donors were analyzed for the impact of interleukin-10 (IL-10) promoter genotype [rs18000896 (-1082 G/A), rs18000871 (-819 C/T) and rs18000872 (-592 C/A)] on the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Patients having ACC haplotype were at a lower risk of acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD, grade > I) if transplanted from human leukocyte antigen (HLA) well-matched (10/10) unrelated donors (20/135 vs 39/117, P < 0.001, Pcorr = 0.002), which was not seen if patients were transplanted from either sibling (SIB) or poorly matched (<10/10) unrelated donors (MUD). In addition, GCC haplotype positive recipients of unrelated donor transplants tended to be more susceptible to aGvHD (68/199 vs 39/169, P = 0.019, Pcorr = 0.057). Multivariate logistic regression analysis in the MUD transplanted group showed that donor-recipient human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch [odds ratio (OR) = 3.937, P = 0.001] and a lack of ACC haplotype in recipients (OR = 0.417, P = 0.013) played a significant role as independent risk factors of aGvHD grade > I. ACC carriers had higher proportions of FoxP3+ lymphocytes gated in CD4+ lymphocytes as compared with patients with other IL-10 haplotypes. It was seen at the time of hematological recovery (mean ± SEM: 3.80 ± 0.91% vs 2.06 ± 0.98%, P = 0.012) and 2 weeks later (5.32 ± 0.87% vs 2.50 ± 0.83%, P = 0.013); -592 C/A polymorphism was separately analyzed and it was found that AA homozygotes tended to have a higher incidence of aGvHD (8/15 vs 116/456, P = 0.034) and low proportions of FoxP3 CD4+ lymphocytes in blood (0.43 ± 0.22% vs 4.32 ± 0.71%, P = 0.051) measured 2 weeks after hematological recovery. Functional IL-10 polymorphism associated features influenced the risk of aGvHD with a positive effect of ACC on the pool of Treg in blood.

Abstract
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related chain A (MICA) and B (MICB) are ligands for the natural killer group 2, member D (NKG2D) activating receptor expressed on natural killer (NK) cells, natural killer T (NKT) cells, CD8+ T cells and γδ T cells. Natural killer group 2, member D (NKG2D) ligand expression is stress-related and upregulated by infected or oncogenic cells leading to cytolysis. MICA and MICB genes display considerable polymorphism among individuals and studies have investigated allelic association with disease and relevance of MICA in transplantation, with variable success. It is now known that promoters of MICA and MICB are polymorphic with some polymorphisms associating with reduced expression. We sequenced International Histocompatibility Workshop (IHW) cell line DNA to determine promoter types and alleles encoded by exons 2-6. We found 8 of 12 known MICA promoter polymorphisms and although promoter P7 dominated, other promoters associated with the same allele. For example, MICA*002:01 had promoters P3, P4 or P7 and the common MICA*008:01/04 type had P1, P6 or P7. Similarly, we sequenced 8 of 12 known MICB promoter haplotypes. Some coding region defined MICB alleles had a single promoter, for example, MICB*002:01 and promoter P9, whereas the promiscuous MICB*005 allele had promoters P1, P2, P5, P6, P10 or P12. The results indicate potential for variation in expression of MICA and MICB ligands between individuals with the same allelic types. If differential expression by polymorphic MICA and MICB promoters is confirmed by functional studies, involvement of these genes in disease susceptibility or adverse transplantation outcomes may require knowledge of both promoter and allelic types to make meaningful conclusions.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the association of polymorphisms in the promoter region of the IL-10 gene with the risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Fifteen studies (3,693 cases and 4,574 controls) were included in a meta-analysis of association between IL-10 -1082G/A, -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphisms, and IBD, CD and UC using allele contrast and the recessive, dominant, and additive models. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was confirmed for each study. Heterogeneity and study quality were investigated using stratification analyses and sensitivity analyses. Polymorphism -1082G/A showed significant association with CD, with odds ratios (ORs) for the GG + GA genotype and GG versus AA genotype of 1.278 (1.004-1.627) and 1.238 (1.027-1.492) in all subjects. Significant associations were found in the Caucasian subgroup using the allele contrast, dominant, and additive models. C-allele carriers of the -819C/T polymorphism were at increased risk of IBD (OR 1.093, 95% CI 1.004-1.190). Association with the -819C/T polymorphism was also found in Caucasians with CD (C vs. T: OR 1.104, 95% CI 1.010-1.206; CC + CT vs. TT: OR 1.328, 95% CI 1.006-1.754; CC vs. TT: OR 1.339, 95% CI 1.008-1.778), and with UC (CC vs. CT + TT: OR 1.188, 95% CI 1.019-1.385). No significant association was found between the -592C/A polymorphism and IBD, CD or UC. In conclusion, the meta-analysis demonstrated clear association between the IL-10 polymorphisms -1082G/A and -819C/T and the risk of IBD.

Abstract
AIM To assess the relationship of the Interleukin-10 (IL-10) -1082G/A (rs1800896), -819C/T (rs1800871) and -592C/A (rs1800872) polymorphism with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by means of meta-analysis. METHODS Published data addressing the association between polymorphism of the IL-10 with Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC) were selected from electronic databases. A total of 17 studies including 4132 cases and 5109 controls were included in this meta-analysis which detected whether -1082G/A, -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphism were associated with CD or UC susceptibility. RESULT The IL-10 -819C/T and -519C/A variant allele observed a significant association with UC (OR 1.16, 95%CI 1.03-1.31 and OR 1.19, 95%CI 1.03-1.38) not CD while there is no significant association between -1082G/A and UC or CD. CONCLUSION The IL-10 -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphisms contribute to susceptibility to UC, but IL-10 -1082G/A polymorphism neither associated with CD nor UC.

Polymorphisms of the cytokine genes TGFB1 and IL10 in a mixed-race population with Crohn's disease. BMC Res Notes 2013; 6:387. [PMID: 24074435 PMCID: PMC3849433 DOI: 10.1186/1756-0500-6-387] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2012] [Accepted: 09/25/2013] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Most Crohn’s disease (CD) genes discovered in recent years are associated with biological systems critical to the development of this disease. TGFB1 and IL10 are cytokines with important roles in CD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between CD, its clinical features and TGFB1 and IL10 gene polymorphisms. Methods This case–control study enrolled 91 patients and 91 controls from the state of Bahia, Brazil. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were studied in the TGFB1 gene (codon 10 T > C - rs1800470; codon 25 G > C - rs1800471) and IL10 gene (−1082 A > G - rs1800896; -819 T > C - rs1800871; -592 A > C - rs1800872). An analysis of the genetic polymorphisms was performed using a commercial kit. A comparison of allele frequencies and genotypes was estimated by calculating the odds ratio (OR) with a confidence interval adjusted via the Bonferroni test for a local alpha of 1%. A stratified analysis was applied for gender, race and smoking history. Patients with CD were characterized according to the Montreal classification. Results The C allele and CC genotype of the TGFB1 gene rs1800470 were both significantly associated with CD. The stratified analysis showed no confounding factors for the co-variables of gender, race and smoking history. The IL10 gene rs1800896 G allele was significantly associated with age at diagnosis of CD, while the T allele of the IL10 gene rs1800871 was significantly associated with perianal disease. The SNPs rs1800871 and rs1800872 were in 100% linkage disequilibrium. Conclusions TGFB1 gene polymorphisms may be associated with susceptibility to the development of CD, and IL10 gene polymorphisms appear to influence the CD phenotype in this admixed population.

Abstract
AIM: To explore the association between interleukin-10 (IL-10) 819T/C polymorphism and Crohn's disease susceptibility.
METHODS: A systematic search of electronic databases such as CBM, CNKI, PubMed, Elsevier and EMbase was performed to retrieve relevant studies. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated using the RevMan 5.1.4 software, and publication bias was tested by Egger's regression test and Begg's test.
RESULTS: A total of 11 studies involving 1670 patients with Crohn's disease and 3312 healthy controls were identified. The results of meta-analyses showed no significant association between IL-10 819T/C polymorphism and susceptibility to Crohn's disease (for T/T vs C/C: OR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.70 to 1.17; T/C vs C/C: OR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.56 to 1.27; for dominant inheritance model: OR = 0.97, 95% CI 0.86 to 1.10; for recessive inheritance model: OR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.71 to 1.14).
CONCLUSION: Current evidence strongly suggests that there is no significant association between IL-10 819T/C polymorphism and susceptibility to Crohn's disease.

Abstract
A large number of studies have shown that the interleukin-10 (IL-10)-1082A/G polymorphism is implicated in susceptibility to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the results are inconsistent. We performed this meta-analysis to estimate the association between -1082A/G polymorphism in the IL-10 gene and IBD susceptibility. A total number of 18 case-control studies including 17,585 subjects were identified. No association was found between -1082A/G polymorphism and ulcerative colitis (UC) susceptibility. However, increased risk of Crohn's disease (CD) was associated with -1082A/G polymorphism in the dominant genetic model (GG+GA vs. AA: OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.02-1.46, P=0.028) and the heterozygote comparison (GA vs. AA: OR=1.28, 95% CI: 1.05-1.55, P=0.015). The results of this meta-analysis provide evidence for the association between IL-10-1082A/G polymorphism and susceptibility of CD. Due to several limitations in the present study, well-designed epidemiological studies with large sample size among different ethnicities should be performed in the future.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-10 has important effects in immunoregulation and inflammation, and previous studies have provided evidence for the involvement of IL-10 in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD). In this study, we investigated whether genetic variants of the IL-10 gene were associated with CD in a New Zealand population. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of IL-10 (rs1800871, rs1800872, and rs1800896) and a flanking SNP, rs3024505, were genotyped in a well-characterized New Zealand dataset consisting of 342 CD cases and 610 controls. Furthermore, we measured serum IL-10 levels in a number of the CD patients and controls and examined whether a relationship existed between these polymorphisms and serum IL-10 levels. We demonstrated an association with CD for SNPs rs3024505 and rs1800896, and phenotypic analysis indicated an association of rs3024505 with an early age at first diagnosis, stricturing CD behavior, and requirement for bowel resection. We also observed that IL-10 concentration was significantly higher in CD patients than in the controls and that the T allele of rs1800896, the A allele of rs1800871, and the T allele of rs1800872 were associated with increased serum IL-10 levels.

Abstract
Background Crohns disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are characterized by a dysregulated inflammatory response to normal constituents of the intestinal flora in the genetically predisposed host. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1/HMOX1) is a powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant enzyme, whereas the pro-inflammatory interleukin 1β (IL-1β/IL1B) and anti-inflammatory interleukin 10 (IL-10/IL10) are key modulators for the initiation and maintenance of inflammation. We investigated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL-1β, IL-10, and HO-1 genes, together with smoking, were associated with risk of CD and UC. Methods Allele frequencies of the IL-1β T-31C (rs1143627), and IL-10 rs3024505, G-1082A (rs1800896), C-819T (rs1800871), and C-592A (rs1800872) and HO-1 A-413T (rs2071746) SNPs were assessed using a case-control design in a Danish cohort of 336 CD and 498 UC patients and 779 healthy controls. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were estimated by logistic regression models. Results Carriers of rs3024505, a marker polymorphism flanking the IL-10 gene, were at increased risk of CD (OR = 1.40, 95% CI: 1.06-1.85, P = 0.02) and UC (OR = 1.43, 95% CI: 1.12-1.82, P = 0.004) and, furthermore, with risk of a diagnosis of CD and UC at young age (OR = 1.47, 95% CI: 1.10-1.96) and OR = 1.35, 95% CI: 1.04-1.76), respectively). No association was found between the IL-1β, IL-10 G-1082A, C-819T, C-592A, and HO-1 gene polymorphisms and CD or UC. No consistent interactions between smoking status and CD or UC genotypes were demonstrated. Conclusions The rs3024505 marker polymorphism flanking the IL-10 gene was significantly associated with risk of UC and CD, whereas no association was found between IL-1β or HO-1 gene polymorphisms and risk of CD and UC in this Danish study, suggesting that IL-10, but not IL-1β or HO-1, has a role in IBD etiology in this population.

Abstract
AIM: To determine the distribution and frequencies of the genotypes and haplotypes of the genes encoding for the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and the interleukin (IL)-10 in childhood Crohn’s disease (CD) and to assess the impact of the corresponding DNA variants on clinical and disease phenotypes.
METHODS: Ten variants in GR, TNF-α and IL-10 were genotyped in 113 childhood CD cases and 95 healthy subjects, both of French-Canadian origin.
RESULTS: For the GR polymorphisms (R23K and N363S) and IL-10 variants in the 5’flanking region (-1082 G > A, -819 T > C and -592 A > C), no difference was observed in allele and genotype frequencies between CD patients and controls. At the haplotype level, we found three IL-10 haplotypes previously described in Caucasians (GCC, ACC and ATA) and three novel haplotypes only present in IBD patients. When we analyzed the haplotype distribution with the anatomical location of the disease, the GCC haplotype was associated with the colonic and the ACC haplotype with the terminal ileum location, respectively. The genotyping of five polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene (-1031 T > C, -863 A > C, -857 T > C, -308 A > G and -238 A > G) revealed a significant overrepresentation of homozygous -1031 CC among CD patients (OR = 9.9) and an association with the colonic location. For TNF-α, eleven haplotypes were inferred, including two frequent ones, TCCGG and CACGG, which were significantly observed more frequently in controls and cases, respectively.
CONCLUSION: This is one of the first studies investigating the association between haplotype structure and disease location in a CD pediatric cohort. Our results will help to increase our understanding of the genetic determinants of childhood CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent genome-wide association study in adult patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) has implicated the interleukin 10 (IL-10) gene as an important candidate gene. Moreover, a UC-associated single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs3024405 was also significantly associated with adult Crohn's disease (CD). AIMS To examine whether IL-10-CD associations extended to paediatric-onset CD. METHODS We implemented the case-control design at three paediatric gastroenterology clinics in Canada. CD patients (<or=20 years) were recruited along with healthy controls. DNA samples were genotyped for tag-single nucleotide polymorphisms (tag-SNPs) in the IL-10 gene. Allelic, genotype and haplotype associations with CD were studied. RESULTS A total of 270 patients and 336 controls were studied. The mean age (+/-s.d.) at diagnosis was 12.1 (+/-3.5). There were a slightly higher proportion of male patients (56.3%). Of the five IL-10 tag-SNPs, rs2222202 (C/T) (P = 0.03) and rs1800871 (C/T) (P = 0.05) showed significant allelic associations with CD. Specific IL-10 SNPs were associated with CD disease location and/or disease behaviour. CONCLUSIONS Our gene-wide analysis replicates recent findings of associations between IL-10 and adult CD, and suggests that these associations extend to paediatric-onset CD as well.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) typically manifests as either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). Systematic identification of susceptibility genes for IBD has thus far focused mainly on CD, and little is known about the genetic architecture of UC. Here we report a genome-wide association study with 440,794 SNPs genotyped in 1,167 individuals with UC and 777 healthy controls. Twenty of the most significantly associated SNPs were tested for replication in three independent European case-control panels comprising a total of 1,855 individuals with UC and 3,091 controls. Among the four consistently replicated markers, SNP rs3024505 immediately flanking the IL10 (interleukin 10) gene on chromosome 1q32.1 showed the most significant association in the combined verification samples (P = 1.35 x 10(-12); OR = 1.46 (1.31-1.62)). The other markers were located in ARPC2 and in the HLA-BTNL2 region. Association between rs3024505 and CD (1,848 cases, 1,804 controls) was weak (P = 0.013; OR = 1.17 (1.01-1.34)). IL10 is an immunosuppressive cytokine that has long been proposed to influence IBD pathophysiology. Our findings strongly suggest that defective IL10 function is central to the pathogenesis of the UC subtype of IBD.

Abstract
Seventy-five years after the initial characterization of Crohn's disease (CD), much remains obscure about its etiology. The authors sought to evaluate the incidence trends of the last 25 years worldwide, and the existence of potential correlations with genetic, environmental, and socioeconomic factors that could be etiologically implicated in the pathogenesis of CD. Relevant medical literature for individual countries on the incidence of CD, on the incidence of associated genetic mutations, and on the incidence of suggested etiologic infectious agents such as Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis were retrieved from published medical literature, reports from relevant international congresses, and through official reports from national health authorities. Increasing trends have been observed almost worldwide, with a broad north-south gradient still prevailing in Europe. Distinct regions of New Zealand, Canada, Scotland, France, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia represent the highest incidence areas. Industrialized status and affluence are the common denominators between endemic areas, but are too broad as terms to strongly indicate any particular etiological role. The increasing trends observed in Asia still account for a low prevalence of the disease and may represent increased detection and diagnostic ability of local health systems. Genetic associations are variably reproduced worldwide, in a manner inconsistent with a strong etiologic relationship. Data on paratuberculosis incidence are scarce, and the existing ones are ambivalent regarding an even indirect correlation between CD and an infectious trigger.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Little is known about the effects of the pro-inflammatory hormone Angiotensin II (Ang II) in inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of valsartan (Diovan), an Ang II receptor antagonist, in two models of colitis. METHODS Colitis was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by administration of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS; 30 mg in 50% ETOH i.c.) or 5% Dextran Sulphate Sodium (DSS) in drinking water ad libitum for 5 days. Valsartan was administered orally in drinking water (160 mg/L) during thirty days prior to the induction of the colitis, and for 5 days after. All animals were evaluated for weight change, diarrhea, myeloperoxidase activity, macroscopic and microscopic damage. Cytokine levels in the colon were measured by ELISA, real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS In the TNBS model, valsartan reduced the macroscopic damage score, significantly decreased the microscopic damage (p<0.01), and accelerated weight gain after colitis. In the DSS-colitis model, valsartan-treated animals had less diarrhea and microscopic damage. Valsartan reduced the protein levels of TGFbeta (p<0.05), and IL-18 in the TNBS model, and led to over expression of IL-10 mRNA in the DSS model. CONCLUSION These data demonstrate a possible anti-inflammatory effect for valsartan in colitis.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases are characterized by dysregulated immune response to the normal microflora and structural and functional changes of the enteric nervous system which occur in inflamed as well as non-inflamed areas of the bowel. This study describes the changes in the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in the colon and in various segments of the small intestine in two rat models of experimental colitis induced by iodoacetamide or 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). Levels of NGF and IL-10 were measured by ELISA in tissue homogenate sampled from duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon at different time intervals. NGF and IL-10 increased significantly in homogenates of strips isolated from all small intestinal segments, 3-6h after iodoacetamide or TNBS administration and remained elevated until the colonic inflammation subsided. Similar but more pronounced increase occurred in areas of the colon adjacent to the ulcer. Histologic examinations revealed inflammatory changes in the colon; however, examination of sections from the small intestines did not reveal significant differences between controls and rats with colitis. The marked up-regulation of nerve growth factor and interleukin-10 in colitis suggests that they play a role in limiting or resolving inflammation and in preventing it from becoming uncontrolled. It also suggests that experimental colitis may be associated with latent inflammation in the small bowel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukins and cytokines play an important role in the pathogenesis of many solid cancers. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified in cytokine genes are thought to influence the expression or function of these proteins and many have been evaluated for their role in inflammatory disease and cancer predisposition. The aim of this study was to evaluate any role of specific SNPs in the interleukin genes IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, IL4R, IL6 and IL10 in predisposition to breast cancer susceptibility and severity. METHODS Candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in key cytokine genes were genotyped in breast cancer patients and in appropriate healthy volunteers who were similar in age, race and sex. Genotyping was performed using a high throughput allelic discrimination method. Data on clinico-pathological details and survival were collected. A systematic review of Medline English literature was done to retrieve previous studies of these polymorphisms in breast cancer. RESULTS None of the polymorphisms studied showed any overall predisposition to breast cancer susceptibility, severity or to time to death or occurrence of distant metastases. The results of the systematic review are summarised. CONCLUSION Polymorphisms within key interleukin genes (IL1A, IL1B, IL1RN, IL4R, IL6 and IL10 do not appear to play a significant overall role in breast cancer susceptibility or severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgA deficiency (IgAD) is the most common primary immunodeficiency in Caucasians. Genetic and environmental factors are suspected to be involved in the development of the disease. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a cytokine with stimulatory activity on immunoglobulin production and it may be an important regulator in IgAD pathogenesis. The IL-10 gene contains several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and two polymorphic microsatellites located in the 5'-flanking region. Our aim was to ascertain if any of these polymorphic markers are associated or linked to IgAD in Spanish patients. METHODS We genotyped 278 patients with IgAD and 573 ethnically matched controls for the microsatellites IL-10R and IL-10G and for three single nucleotide polymorphisms at positions -1082, -819 and -592 in the proximal promoter of the gene. We also included in this study the parents of 194 patients in order to study the IL-10 haplotypes transmitted and not transmitted to the affected offspring. RESULTS The only allele where a significant difference was observed in the comparison between IgA deficiency patients and controls was the IL-10G12 allele (OR = 1.58 and p = 0.021). However, this p value could not withstand a Bonferroni correction. None of the IL-10R or promoter SNP alleles was found at a different frequency when patients were compared with controls. CONCLUSION Our data do not show any significant difference in IL-10 polymorphism frequencies between control and IgAD patient samples. Their haplotype distribution among patients and controls was also equivalent and therefore these microsatellites and SNPs do not seem to influence IgAD susceptibility.

Abstract
Background Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic disorder characterized by a pathological inflammatory response after exposure to gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. The HLA complex accounts for less than half of the genetic component of the disease, and additional genes must be implicated. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an important regulator of mucosal immunity, and several reports have described alterations of IL-10 levels in celiac patients. The IL-10 gene is located on chromosome 1, and its promoter carries several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and microsatellites which have been associated to production levels. Our aim was to study the role of those polymorphisms in susceptibility to CD in our population. Methods A case-control and a familial study were performed. Positions -1082, -819 and -592 of the IL-10 promoter were typed by TaqMan and allele specific PCR. IL10R and IL10G microsatellites were amplified with labelled primers, and they were subsequently run on an automatic sequencer. In this study 446 patients and 573 controls were included, all of them white Spaniards. Extended haplotypes encompassing microsatellites and SNPs were obtained in families and estimated in controls by the Expectation-Maximization algorithm. Results No significant associations after Bonferroni correction were observed in the SNPs or any of the microsatellites. Stratification by HLA-DQ2 (DQA1*0501-DQB1*02) status did not alter the results. When extended haplotypes were analyzed, no differences were apparent either. Conclusion The IL-10 polymorphisms studied are not associated with celiac disease. Our data suggest that the IL-10 alteration seen in patients may be more consequence than cause of the disease.

Abstract
AIM: To examine the contribution of interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene polymorphisms to Crohn’s disease (CD) phenotype, and the possible genetic epistasis between IL-10 gene polymorphisms and CARD15/NOD2 gene mutations.
METHODS: A cohort of 205 Spanish unrelated patients with Crohn's disease recruited from a single center was studied. All patients were rigorously phenotyped and followed-up for at least 3 years (mean time, 12.5 years). The clinical phenotype was established prior to genotyping.
RESULTS: The correlation of genotype-Vienna classification groups showed that the ileocolonic location was significantly associated with the -1082G allele in the NOD2/CARD15 mutation-positive patients (RR = 1.52, 95%CI, 1.21 to 1.91, P = 0.008). The multivariate analysis demonstrated that the IL-10 G14 microsatellite allele in the NOD2/CARD15 mutation positive patients was associated with two risk factors, history of appendectomy (RR = 2.15, 95%CI = 1.1-4.30, P = 0.001) and smoking habit at diagnosis (RR = 1.29, 95%CI = 1.04-4.3, P = 0.04).
CONCLUSION: In Spanish population from Madrid, in CD patients carrying at least one NOD2/CARD15 mutation, the -1082G allele is associated with ileocolonic disease and the IL-10G14 microsatellite allele is associated with previous history of appendectomy and smoking habit at diagnosis. These data provide further molecular evidence for a genetic basis of the clinical heterogeneity of CD.
