Abstract
Analyzing the genetic variation and mRNA expression of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) gene and its impact on asthma susceptibility was the purpose of this study. 120 asthma patients were selected as the asthma group, and another 120 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were selected as the health group; Compare the cytokine levels and mRNA expression of IL-17A between two groups, as well as the clinical indicator total immunoglobulin E (TIgE) levels; The genotype and allele distribution frequency of IL-17A Single-nucleotide polymorphism locus rs2275913 and rs8193036 were compared between the two groups; Compare the serum IL-17A and TIgE levels of different genotypes at rs2275913 and rs8193036 loci; and logistic regression was used to evaluate the impact of IL-17A on asthma susceptibility. The serum levels of IL-17A, TIgE, and IL-17AmRNA expression in the asthma group were higher than those in the healthy group (P<0.05). There were three genotypes of AA, AG and GG at rs2275913 locus, and the frequency distribution between the two groups was significant (P<0.05), and the frequency of A Allele frequency in asthma group was higher than that in healthy group (P<0.05). There are three genotypes of CC, CT, and TT at the rs8193036 locus, and there was no significant difference in the frequency distribution between the two groups (P>0.05). There is no difference in the frequency distribution of alleles C and T between the two groups (P>0.05). The levels of IL-17A and TIgE in the rs2275913AA genotype were higher than those in the AG and GG genotypes (P<0.05); There was no difference in IL-17A and TIgE levels among different genotypes of rs8193036 (P>0.05). The rs2275913 polymorphism was associated with asthma susceptibility and is an independent risk parameter for asthma susceptibility. Upregulation of serum IL-17A and TIgE, as well as overexpression of IL-17A mRNA, were closely related to asthma susceptibility in asthma patients. The rs2275913 polymorphism had a significant role in increasing the risk of asthma, and variant allele A may be a susceptibility factor for increasing asthma risk.
