Interleukin-23 receptor gene variants in Hungarian systemic lupus erythematosus patients
Copyright policy )Interleukin-23 receptor gene variants in Hungarian systemic lupus erythematosus patients
We investigated the association between systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and polymorphisms of interleukin-23 receptor (IL23R) gene, which was recently found to be associated with autoimmune diseases, including Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis.We analysed 383 SLE patients and 253 controls for rs11805303, rs10889677, rs1004819, rs2201841, rs11209032, 11209026, rs10489629, rs7517847 and rs7530511 variants.The analysis was carried out using PCR-RFLP methods. Logistic regression analysis was used to compare the genotype distributions of the polymorphisms and haplotypes between the SLE patients and healthy controls.We observed no significant difference of the examined variants between the patient and control groups.Our results suggest that neither single nucleotide variants nor haplotypes of IL23R indicate susceptibility to developing SLE in the Hungarian population.
