Polymorphism of genes encoding drug-metabolizing and inflammation-related enzymes for susceptibility to cholangiocarcinoma in Thailand. World J Gastrointest Pathophysiol 2023; 14:21-33. [PMID: 37035273 PMCID: PMC10074948 DOI: 10.4291/wjgp.v14.i2.21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an intractable cancer, and its incidence in northeastern Thailand is the highest worldwide. Infection with the liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) has been associated with CCA risk. However, animal experiments have suggested that OV alone does not induce CCA, but its combination with a chemical carcinogen like nitrosamine can cause experimentally induced CCA in hamsters. Therefore, in humans, other environmental and genetic factors may also be involved.
AIM To examine relations between risk for CCA and genetic polymorphisms in carcinogen-metabolizing and inflammation-related genes.
METHODS This hospital-based case-control study enrolled 95 case-control pairs matched by age (± 5 years) and sex. We examined relations between risk for CCA and genetic polymorphisms in carcinogen-metabolizing and inflammation-related genes, serum anti-OV, alcohol consumption, and smoking. Polymorphisms of CYP2E1, IL-6 (-174 and -634), IL-10 (-819), and NF-κB (-94) and their co-occurrence with polymorphisms in the drug-metabolizing enzyme gene GSTT1 or GSTM1 were also analyzed.
RESULTS Although CCA risk was not significantly associated with any single polymorphism, persons with the GSTT1 wild-type and CYP2E1 c1/c2 + c2/c2 genotype had an increased risk (OR = 3.33, 95%CI: 1.23-9.00) as compared with persons having the GSTT1 wild-type and CYP2E1 c1/c1 wild genotype. The presence of anti-OV in serum was associated with a 7- to 11-fold increased risk, and smoking level was related to an OR of 1.5-1.8 in multivariable analyses adjusted for each of the seven genetic polymorphisms.
CONCLUSION In addition to infection with OV, gene-gene interactions may be considered as one of the risk factors for CCA development.

Abstract
Behçet’s disease (BD) is a polygenic condition with a complex immunopathogenetic background and challenging diagnostic and therapeutic concepts. Advances in genomic medicine have provided intriguing insights into disease pathogenesis over the last decade, especially into monogenic mimics of BD. Although a rare condition, paediatric BD should be considered an important differential diagnosis, especially in cases with similar phenotypes. Emerging reports of monogenic mimics have indicated the importance of genetic testing, particularly for those with early-onset, atypical features and familial aggregation. Treatment options ought to be evaluated in a multidisciplinary setting, given the complexity and diverse organ involvement. Owing to the rarity of the condition, there is a paucity of paediatric trials; thus, international collaboration is warranted to provide consensus recommendations for the management of children and young people. Herein, we summarise the current knowledge of the clinical presentation, immunopathogenetic associations and disease mechanisms in patients with paediatric BD and BD-related phenotypes, with particular emphasis on recently identified monogenic mimics.

Abstract
Behcet’s disease (BD) is a chronic inflammatory disease with multisystemic involvement. Its etiology is considered to involve complex environmental and genetic factors. Several susceptibility genes for BD, such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A26, IL23R-IL12RB2, IL10 and ERAP1, in addition to the well-studied HLA-B51, were mainly identified by genome-wide association studies. A heterozygous mutation in TNFAIP3, which leads to A20 haploinsufficiency, was found to cause an early-onset autoinflammatory disease resembling BD in 2016. Several monogenic diseases associated with primary immunodeficiency disease and trisomy 8 have recently been reported to display BD-like phenotypes. Among the genes causing these diseases, TNFAIP3, NEMO, RELA, NFKB1 and TNFRSF1A are involved in the NF-κB (nuclear factor κ light-chain enhancer of activated B cells) signaling pathway, indicating that this pathway plays an important role in the pathogenesis of BD. Because appropriate treatment may vary depending on the disease, analyzing the genetic background of patients with such diseases is expected to help elucidate the etiology of pediatric BD and assist with its treatment. Here, we summarize recently emerging knowledge about genetic predisposition to BD.

Abstract
Behçet´s disease (BD) is a heterogeneous condition consisting of idiopathic systemic vasculitis affecting large and small blood vessels of different types (i.e., arteries, veins, or capillaries). The disease frequently occurs in young adults without gender predilection, differently from several other autoimmune conditions. This challenging illness has recently been proposed by some authors as an example of complex autoinflammatory syndrome. Although much remains unanswered about BD pathogenesis, recent understanding of some aspects of innate immunity have clarified a few issues (and raised others). HLA-B*51 represents the strongest genetic risk factor for BD to date, albeit several other HLA-independent loci have also been associated with the disease. The consistent hyper-reactivity against Streptococcus sanguinis antigens and alterations in oral and gut microbioma suggests that infectious agents may play an important role. Moreover, functional abnormalities of pattern recognition receptors, especially Toll-like receptors in monocytes, have been demonstrated in patients with BD and can be associated with the development of the disease. Neutrophil hyperactivity is one of the most consistent findings in BD pathogenesis, as demonstrated by exacerbated constitutive oxidative burst, chemotaxis and NET formation. However, some studies suggest that the phagocyte-activated status in BD is not primary to the disease itself, but rather restricted to a fraction of patients with severe disease activity, and probably secondary to activating soluble factors carried by serum/plasma from BD patients. Herein we review the state of the art on BD etiopathogenesis with special emphasis on the participation of the innate immune system

Abstract
Behçet's disease (BD) is a heterogeneous multi-organ disorder in search of a unified pathophysiological theory and classification. The disease frequently has overlapping features resembling other disease clusters, such as vasculitides, spondyloarthritides and thrombophilias with similar genetic risk variants, namely HLA-B*51, ERAP1, IL-10, IL-23R. Many of the BD manifestations, such as unprovoked recurrent episodes of inflammation and increased expression of IL-1, IL-6 and TNFα, overlap with those of the hereditary monogenic autoinflammatory syndromes, positioning BD at the crossroads between autoimmune and autoinflammatory syndromes. BD-like disease associates with various inborn errors of immunity, including familial Mediterranean fever, conditions related to dysregulated NF-κB activation (eg TNFAIP3, NFKB1, OTULIN, RELA, IKBKG) and either constitutional trisomy 8 or acquired trisomy 8 in myelodysplastic syndromes. We review here the recent advances in the immunopathology of BD, BD-like diseases and the NF-κB pathway suggesting new elements in the elusive BD etiopathogenesis.

Abstract
Background The NLRP3 inflammasome plays important roles in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the pathophysiology of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) remains unclear. Methods RT-PCR was used to examine the polymorphism and expression of genes involved in the NLRP3 inflammasome in ITP patients. T helper cells and apoptosis of PBMC from ITP patients were analyzed by flow cytometry. The antiplatelet autoantibodies in plasma were determined by modified monoclonal antibody-specific immobilization of platelet antigens (MAIPA). Results We found that the NF-κB-94ins/del ATTG genotype contributed to the susceptibility of ITP. Furthermore, the platelet counts of ITP patients with the WW genotype or WD genotype were lower than those with the DD genotype of NF-κB-94ins/del ATTG. Compared with controls, NF-κB gene expression was significantly decreased and WW or WD genotype ITP patients displayed higher mRNA expression than DD individuals. Similarly, the mRNA expression of NLRP3 was also increased in the WW genotype. There was a significant gene dose effect of the percentage of Th17 cells for the WW, WD, and DD genotypes (WW < WD < DD) in the unstimulated group and no significant difference was found after being stimulated. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome could upregulate Th17 in ITP patients. Conclusion The NF-κB-94ins/del ATTG genotype might serve as a novel biomarker and potential target for ITP.

Abstract
Targeting the endothelial adhesion molecules that control leukocyte trafficking into a tissue has been explored as a biological therapy for inflammatory diseases. However, these molecules also participate in leukocyte migration for immune surveillance, and inhibiting the physiological level of an adhesion molecule might promote infection or malignancy. We explored the concept of targeting endothelial adhesion molecule transcription during inflammation in a human system. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) mediates leukocyte migration across the retinal endothelium in noninfectious posterior uveitis. We observed an increase in the transcription factor, nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells 1 (NF-κB1), in parallel with ICAM-1, in human retinal endothelial cells treated with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and identified putative binding sites for NF-κB1 within the ICAM-1 regulatory region. We targeted induced NF-κB1 expression in endothelial cells with small interfering (si)RNA. Knockdown of NF-κB1 significantly decreased cell surface expression of ICAM-1 protein induced by TNF-α but did not reduce constitutive ICAM-1 expression. Consistently, NF-κB1 knockdown significantly reduced leukocyte binding to cell monolayers in the presence of TNF-α but did not impact baseline binding. Findings of this proof-of-concept study indicate that induced transcription of endothelial adhesion molecules might be targeted therapeutically for inflammatory disease in humans.

Abstract
Several modulatory factors in the TLR signaling pathway including IRF3, IRF7, IRF8, TRIM20, MYD88 and NF-κB1 have been associated with autoimmune disease. In this study, we investigated the association of 13 SNPs for these genes with Behçet’s disease (BD) and Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome using a polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. Haplotype and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis were performed by Haploview4.2. IRF8 mRNA expression and cytokine production was tested by real-time PCR and ELISA. Two SNPs near IRF8 were associated with BD (for rs17445836 GG genotype, Pc = 9.56 × 10−8, OR = 2.044; for rs11642873 AA genotype, Pc = 9.24 × 10−7, OR = 1.776). No significant association was found for the 13 SNPs tested with VKH syndrome. Haplotype analysis of the two positive SNPs revealed that the AG haplotype was significantly increased in BD patients (Pc = 2.60 × 10−8, OR = 1.646). Functional studies revealed an increased mRNA expression of IRF8 and IFN-γ production and a decreased production of IL-10 in rs17445836 carriers with the GG genotype. Increased expression of IRF8 as well as IFN-γ production and a decreased production of IL-10 were found in individuals carrying the rs11642873/AA genotype. In conclusion, this study indicates that IRF8 may contribute to the genetic susceptibility of BD by regulating IRF8 expression and cytokine production.

Abstract
Behçet's disease (BD) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Although raised levels of proinflammatory cytokines in BD have been reported, the pathogenesis is still unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of NFKB1 and NFKBIA polymorphisms and their single and combined analysis effects on susceptibility of BD in Turkish population. We analysed the distribution of NFKB1 -94 ins/del ATTG (rs28362491) and NFKBIA 3' UTR A→G (rs696) polymorphisms using PCR-RFLP method in 89 patients with BD and 190 controls in this population. Statistical analysis of the results was performed by calculating OR, and 95% CI via χ(2) test and using Bonferroni correction. According to the significant results of both single and combined genotype analysis, the frequencies of ins/ins genotype and ins allele of rs28362491 were significantly higher in patients with BD (Pc = 0.003, 0.004, respectively). Also, higher frequencies of the rs696 variant containing AA genotype was found in patients with BD (Pc = 0.0033), whereas no statistical significant differences in distribution of the alleles of rs696 polymorphism in patients and controls. In addition, according to the combined genotype analysis, the wild type of both rs28362491 and rs696 polymorphisms (ins/ins/AA genotype) was also significantly higher in BD cases (Pc = 0.044). Our findings prove that both single and combined genotype analysis of rs28362491 and rs696 polymorphisms indicate that the wild genotypes of both two SNPs (ins/ins and AA genotypes) and ins/ins/AA combined genotype are strongly associated with enhanced risk of BD in a Turkish population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel diseases have been reported to be associated with the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS), which is characterized by central obesity, elevated triglycerides (TG), reduced high-density lipoproteins (HDL), impaired fasting blood glucose (FBG), and hypertension. Behçet disease (BD) is a chronic, immuno-inflammatory disease with multisystemic involvement. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and risk factors for MetS in patients with BD. METHODS All patients had BD according to the criteria of the International Study Group. Diagnosis of MetS was established according to National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP ATP III) criteria. Mean waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), FBG, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), total cholesterol, HDL, very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), TG, systolic BP, and diastolic BP were measured and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 86 patients and 72 healthy controls were included. MetS was detected in 35.4 % of patients and 20 % of controls (p = 0.04). Patients with BD had a 2.67-fold higher risk for MetS than healthy controls (p < 0.05). Significant risk factors for developing MetS according to multivariate analyses were BD, age, and BMI. Age at onset of the disease, duration of disease, BMI, gastrointestinal system involvement, and neurological involvement were correlated with increased MetS risk (p < 0.05). MetS tended to increase with age and the duration of the disease and was higher in women under the age of 40 years compared with healthy controls in the same age group. CONCLUSION All BD patients should be closely monitored for hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes mellitus to avoid MetS development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Growing evidence indicates that vascular inflammation is a common phenomenon in the pathogenesis of intracranial aneurysms (IAs). Nuclear factor kappa B is a key molecule that is involved in the vascular inflammation of IA. We hypothesized that an insertion/deletion (ins/del) ATTG polymorphism located between two putative key promoter regulatory elements in the NFKB1 gene may be related to the risk of IA. METHODS We performed a case-control study, including 164 patients with IA and 525 healthy controls in a Chinese population using a polymerase chain reaction-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis assay. RESULTS A significantly decreased risk of IA was observed in the ATTG1/ATTG2 and ATTG2/ATTG2 genotypes compared with the ATTG1/ATTG1 genotype (ATTG1/ATTG2 vs. ATTG1/ATTG1: odds ratio [OR]=0.58, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]=0.39-0.87, p=0.007; ATTG2/ATTG2 vs. ATTG1/ATTG1: OR=0.12, 95% CI=0.06-0.23, p<0.001), and also the ATTG2 allele (ATTG2 vs. ATTG1: OR=0.41, 95% CI=0.32-0.54, p<0.001). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the NFKB1 -94ins/del ATTG polymorphism may contribute to the risk of IA.

Abstract
Behçet's disease (BD) is a recurrent systemic inflammatory disorder of unknown origin characterized by oral and genital mucous ulcer, uveitis, and skin lesions. Involvement of large vessels, central nervous system (CNS), gastrointestinal tract and thrombotic events are less frequent but can be life threatening. The aim of this review is to provide new insights into the pathogenesis of BD. Over the past year substantial advances have been done in the understanding of the genetic [1,2] and immunology [3] of BD. BD is at the crossroad between autoimmune and autoinflammatory syndromes. In common with autoimmune diseases BD shares class I MHC association. However, in contrast to autoimmune disorders, BD has clinical features that seem to be mostly autoinflammatory. The pathogenesis of BD is still unknown, but major determinants of the genetic and immune system abnormalities have been reported recently. Triggering infectious factors are supposed to participate in the outbreak of BD in genetically predisposed patients. Two recent large genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted in Turkey and Japan reported association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-23R/IL-12RB2 genes and BD. New insights into the perturbations of T cell homeostasis of BD recently emerged. We have recently demonstrated the promotion of Th17 responses and the suppression of regulatory T cells (Tregs) that were driven by interleukin (IL)-21 production and that correlates with BD activity. Inflammatory cells within BD inflammatory lesions included mostly neutrophils, Th1 and Th17 cells, and cytotoxic CD8+ and γδ T cells. Altogether, the recent progresses in the knowledge of BD pathogenesis pave the way for innovative therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the progress in the field of MHC-related genetic susceptibility to Behçet's disease (BD). METHOD Systematic review of the English literature between 1 January 1980 and 31 January 2010 using Medline. Case-control, population-based, observational cohort studies investigating the association between BD and HLA-B*51 subtypes, classical and non-classical HLA alleles and other HLA-related genes were selected. The geographical distribution of BD and these susceptibility genes was also taken into consideration. Case and familial case reports were excluded except for case series with more than two patients. RESULTS Ninety articles plus 17 obtained from other sources were included in the systematic review. We have found high evidence that a core component of genetic susceptibility to BD is within the MHC region being primarily related to an HLA-B*51 subtype: HLA-B*5101/B*510101. Moreover, HLA-A*26, HLA-B*15, HLA-B*5701 and TNF-α -1031C were independently associated with BD. Data suggest that other HLA (HLA-C, HLA-DR) and HLA-related [MHC Class I chain-related gene A (MIC-A), TNF-α] genes may play a role in BD co-susceptibility or pathogenesis. Finally, the distinctive geographical distribution of BD suggested an evolutionary selection of HLA-B*51 subtypes as the major susceptibility factors for BD. CONCLUSION Further studies must be addressed to clarify the functional relevance of the different genes found to be associated with disease susceptibility and the potential interactions between genes located within and outside the MHC region.

Abstract
Nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB (NFKB1)-94ins/del is an important polymorphism that affects promoter activity of the NFKB1 gene and is potentially associated with several inflammatory diseases. We investigated the association of this polymorphism with lung injury after cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass in a prospective cohort study of 283 patients. Genotyping was performed by high resolution melting analysis; analysis indicated no association of NFKB1 with postoperative lung injury (p = 0.064). Relative risks of the del allele and the del/del genotype were 1.34 (95% CI 1.02-1.75) and 1.74 (95% CI 1.00-3.05) respectively. Logistic regression analysis (with factors including age, peripheral vascular disease and surgical duration as risk factors of lung injury after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass) also failed to confirm that the NFKB1 genotype is influential for lung injury (p = 0.113). We conclude that, contrary to some other evidence, the NFKB1-94ins/del polymorphism is not associated with lung injury after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.
