由于宿主遗传因素参与布鲁氏菌病感染的易感性及其转归,这项研究旨在进行全面的系统评价和荟萃分析,以精确评估布鲁氏菌病及其局灶性并发症的风险与病例对照研究中检查的所有细胞因子之间的关联。包括干扰素γ(IFN-γ),肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α,TNF-β,转化生长因子(TGF)-β,IL-2、IL-4、IL-6、IL-10、IL-12B、IL-15和IL-18多态性。
在PubMed中进行系统的文献检索,WebofScience,谷歌学者,进行Scopus以确定相关研究,并提取了相关信息。计算效应大小(ES)和相应的95%置信区间(CI)以估计关联。
从158个初步结果来看,本荟萃分析纳入了25项符合条件的研究.总的来说,汇总结果显示,IFN-γUTR5644,TGF-βrs1800470和rs1800471,TNF-αrs1800629和IL-10rs1800872的优势模型在布鲁氏菌病患者中的发生率明显低于对照组.此外,突变等位基因与等位基因的汇总分析TGF-βrs1800471和IL-10rs1800872的野生等位基因与布鲁氏菌病的风险呈负相关。另一方面,我们的汇总分析表明,IL-4rs2243250和IL-18rs1946519的突变等位基因与布鲁氏菌病的易感性增加有关。此外,IFN-γUTR5644和TGF-βrs1800470在没有病灶形式的患者中更常见。
IL-4rs2243250和IL-18rs1946519与布鲁氏菌病呈正相关,而IFN-γUTR5644,TGF-βrs1800470和rs1800471,TNF-αrs1800629和IL-10rs1800872与该病呈负相关。在当前的荟萃分析中,其他单核苷酸多态性(SNP)与布鲁氏菌病风险之间的关联尚未得到证实。PROSPERO注册:CRD42018117203。
Owing to involvement of host genetic factors in susceptibility to brucellosis infection and its outcome, this study aimed to carry out a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to derive a precise evaluation of the association between the risk of brucellosis and its focal complication and all cytokines examined in case-control studies, including Interferon gamma (IFN-γ), Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α, TNF-β, Transforming Growth Factor(TGF)-β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12B, IL-15, and IL-18 polymorphisms.
A systematic literature search in PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Scopus was performed to identify the relevant studies, and related information was extracted. The effect size (ES) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the association.
From 158 initial results, twenty-five eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, the pooled results showed that the dominant models of IFN-γ UTR5644, TGF-β rs1800470 and rs1800471, TNF-α rs1800629, and IL-10 rs1800872 were significantly less frequent in brucellosis patients than the controls. Also, the pooled analysis of the mutant allele vs. wild allele of TGF-β rs1800471 and IL-10 rs1800872 showed negative association with brucellosis risk. On the other hand, our pooled analysis demonstrated that the mutant allele of IL-4 rs2243250 and IL-18 rs1946519 were associated with increased susceptibility to brucellosis. In addition, the IFN-γ UTR5644 and TGF-β rs1800470 were more frequent in the patients without focal forms.
IL-4 rs2243250 and IL-18 rs1946519 have a positive correlation with brucellosis whereas the IFN-γ UTR5644, TGF-β rs1800470 and rs1800471, TNF-α rs1800629, and IL-10 rs1800872 showed a negative association with this disease. The association between the other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and brucellosis risk was not confirmed in the current meta-analysis. PROSPERO Registration: CRD42018117203.
