摘要

BACKGROUND: IL-18 is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays an important role for T-helper type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cytokine in the presence/absence of IL-12. It has been recently shown that human IL-18 plays a role in atopic dermatitis (AD) by enhancing IL-4 and IL-13 production and by stimulating the synthesis of IgE. OBJECTIVE: We wanted to evaluate the associations of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the haplotype in the IL-18 gene, hence we performed genotyping for the SNPs in the IL-18 gene in AD patients and normal controls. METHOD: We genotyped three SNPs from the IL-18 gene for the 1120 case-control samples (646 AD patients and 474 normal controls). We measured the serum IL-18, IL-4 and IL-13 concentrations in 74 individuals (25 ADe, 25 ADi and 24 controls) by performing ELISA. RESULT: The rs795467 SNP and haplotype T-T-C were significantly associated with AD, and especially between the ADe and normal control groups (P=0.03 and 0.01). The serum IL-18 concentration was higher in the AD groupthan in the normal controls without any correlation with the rs795467 polymorphism. We did not find any correlations between the serum IL-18 levels and the SCORing atopic dermatitis index, the blood eosinophil counts and the ECP, and there was no correlation between the serum IL-18 levels and the serum IL-4 and IL-13 levels. CONCLUSION: We found that the one SNP and the haplotype T-T-C were strongly associated with the allergic type of AD, but not with the non-allergic intrinsic type. These data support the hypothesis that IL-18 up-regulates IgE production, yet more experiments will be needed to prove the in vivo involvement of Th2 cytokine.
