AI Article Synopsis

  • Research has examined the link between IL-1α C(-889)T polymorphism and Alzheimer's disease (AD), but results are unclear.
  • This meta-analysis used databases like Embase and PubMed to analyze 28 publications and find pooled odds ratios (ORs).
  • The findings suggest a significant association between the IL-1α polymorphism and AD, especially in certain populations and early-onset cases, but not for late-onset Alzheimer's.

Article Abstract

Epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between interleukin-1 (IL-1)α C(-889)T polymorphism and Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the results remain inconclusive. This meta-analysis was, therefore, designed to clarify these controversies. Systematic searches of electronic databases Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science as well as hand searching of the references of identified articles and the meeting abstracts were performed. Statistical analyses were performed using software Review Manager (Version 5.1.2) and Stata (Version 11.0). The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs) were calculated. A total of 28 publications including 29 studies were involved. There was a significant association between IL-1α C(-889)T polymorphism and AD (for T allele vs. C allele: OR = 1.14, 95 % CI = 1.07-1.21; for T/T vs. C/C: OR = 1.39, 95 % CI = 1.18-1.63; for dominant model: OR = 1.13, 95 % CI = 1.04-1.22; and for recessive model: OR = 1.39, 95 % CI = 1.20-1.60). Significant association was found for Asians, Caucasians, and early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) but for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). This meta-analysis indicates that there is a significant association between IL-1α C(-889)T polymorphism and AD as well as EOAD.

Background: Pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) play important roles in host immune response and bone metabolism during dental implant osseointegration. Whether the functional polymorphisms in IL-1α, IL-1β and TNFα were associated with peri-implant disease was unclear, and we performed the present meta-analysis for this purpose.

Methods: Eligible studies investigating IL-1α C-889T, IL-1β C+3954T and C-511T, TNFα G-308A, composite genotype of IL-1α C-889T and IL-1β C+3954T for association with peri-implant disease, including peri-implantitis (PI), marginal bone loss (MBL) and implant failure/loss (IF/IL), were searched on several literature databases prior to April 30, 2021.

Purpose: Bleeding is one of the possible adverse events during clopidogrel therapy. The CYP2C19 gene is the most significant genetic factor which influences response to clopidogrel treatment. We aimed to examine the contribution of the CYP2C19 gene to bleeding occurrence during clopidogrel therapy in Serbian patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Association analysis of the IL-1 gene cluster polymorphisms with aggressive and chronic periodontitis in the Algerian population.

Objective: There is strong evidence that genetic as well as environmental factors affect the development of periodontitis. Various studies suggest that genetic polymorphisms of the interleukin-1 (IL-1) genes are associated with an increased risk of developing the pathogenesis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the possible relationship between two polymorphisms of IL-1 gene cluster IL-1B (C+3954T) (rs1143634) and IL-1A (C-889T) (rs1800587) SNPs and the aggressive and chronic periodontitis risk in a case control study in Algerian population.

Increasing evidence suggests that IL-1 β (C-511T) and IL-1 α (C-889T) genes polymorphisms are associated with the susceptibility to cardiocerebral vascular disease. In this paper, we investigated the relationships between these polymorphisms and the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) classified by TOAST criteria in the north Chinese Han population. 440 cases of IS and 486 age- and gender-matched controls of Chinese Han population were enrolled.

Background: The discovery and the description of the genetic background of common human diseases is hampered by their complexity and dynamic behavior. Appropriate bioinformatic tools are needed to account all the facets of complex diseases and to this end we recently described the survival dimensionality reduction (SDR) algorithm in the effort to model gene-gene interactions in the context of survival analysis. When one event precludes the occurrence of another event under investigation in the 'competing risk model', survival algorithms require particular adjustment to avoid the risk of reporting wrong or biased conclusions.
