Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the impact of polymorphism of PD-1 gene and its interaction with tea drinking on susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB). A total of 503 patients with TB and 494 controls were enrolled in this case–control study. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms of PD-1 (rs7568402, rs2227982 and rs36084323) were genotyped and unconditional logistic regression analysis was used to identify the association between PD-1 polymorphism and TB, while marginal structural linear odds models were used to estimate the interactions. Genotypes GA (OR 1.434), AA (OR 1.891) and GA + AA (OR 1.493) at rs7568402 were more prevalent in the TB patients than in the controls (P < 0.05). The relative excess risk of interaction (RERI) between rs7568402 of PD-1 genes and tea drinking was −0.3856 (95% confidence interval −0.7920 to −0.0209, P < 0.05), which showed a negative interaction. However, the RERIs between tea drinking and both rs2227982 and rs36084323 of PD-1 genes were not statistically significant. Our data demonstrate that rs7568402 of PD-1 genes was associated with susceptibility to TB, and there was a significant negative interaction between rs7568402 and tea drinking. Therefore, preventive measures through promoting the consumption of tea should be emphasised in the high-risk populations.

World J Clin Cases 2020; 8:4320-4330. [PMID: 33083391 PMCID: PMC7559685 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v8.i19.4320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 08/29/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND mTOR gene is a key component of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, and its dysregulation is associated with various diseases. Several studies have demonstrated that tea drinking is a protective factor against tuberculosis (TB). This study was designed to explore five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of mTOR in the Han population of China to determine how their interactions with tea drinking affect susceptibility to TB.
AIM To investigate if the polymorphisms of mTOR gene and the gene-tea interaction are associated with susceptibility to TB.
METHODS In this case-control study, 503 patients with TB and 494 healthy controls were enrolled by a stratified sampling method. The cases were newly registered TB patients from the county-level centers for disease control and prevention, and the healthy controls were permanent residents from Xin’ansi Community, Changsha city. Demographic data and environmental exposure information including tea drinking were obtained from the study participants. We genotyped five potentially functional SNP sites (rs2295080, rs2024627, rs1057079, rs12137958, and rs7525957) of mTOR gene and assessed their associations with the risk of TB using logistic regression analysis, and marginal structural linear odds models were used to estimate the gene-environment interactions.
RESULTS The frequencies of four SNPs (rs2295080, rs2024627, rs1057079, and rs7525957) were found to be associated with susceptibility to TB (P < 0.05). Genotypes GT (OR 1.334), GG (OR 2.224), and GT + GG (OR 1.403) at rs2295080; genotypes CT (OR 1.562) and CT + TT (OR 1.578) at rs2024627, genotypes CT (OR 1.597), CC (OR 2.858), and CT + CC (OR 1.682) at rs1057079; and genotypes CT (OR 1.559) and CT + CC (OR 1.568) at rs7525957 of mTOR gene were significantly more prevalent in TB patients than in healthy controls. The relative excess risk of interaction between the four SNPs (rs2295080, rs2024627, rs1057079, and rs7525957) of mTOR genes and tea drinking were found to be -1.5187 (95%CI: -1.9826, -1.0547, P < 0.05), -1.8270 (95%CI: -2.3587, -1.2952, P < 0.05), -2.3246 (95%CI: -2.9417, -1.7076, P < 0.05) and -0.4235 (95%CI: -0.7756, -0.0714, P < 0.05), respectively, which suggest negative interactions.
CONCLUSION The polymorphisms of mTOR (rs2295080, rs2024627, rs1057079, and rs7525957) are associated with susceptibility to TB, and there is a negative interaction between each of the four SNPs and tea drinking.
