The present study was designed to determine whether the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 () C1858T variant is associated with susceptibility to vasculitis. A meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the association between the C1858T variant and vasculitis. A trial sequential analysis was performed to evaluate the robustness of the meta-analysis. A total of 17 studies were included in this meta-analysis which revealed a highly significant association between the T allele and vasculitis of multiple types (odds ratio [OR] = 4.850, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.043-7.729,  < 0.001). Meta-analysis by vasculitis type showed an association between the T allele and risk of giant cell arteritis (GCA) and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) (OR = 7.505, 95% CI = 3.605-15.62,  < 0.001; OR = 6.121, 95% CI = 3.216-11.65,  < 0.001). The meta-analysis also indicated an association between the T allele and Takayasu's arteritis, but not between the T allele and Behcet's disease or Henoch-Schönlein purpura. TSA indicated that the observed association is conclusive with the existing evidence. This meta-analysis confirms that the C1858T variant is associated with susceptibility to GCA and AAV.

Autoimmune Thyroid Disease (AIT) is a frequent comorbidity in Down Syndrome (DS). Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Non- Receptor Type 22 C1858T (PTPN-22 C1858T) gene polymorphisms have a role in the progression of AIT. The study on PTPN- 22 C1858T gene polymorphism as the risk factor of AIT in DS children is still limited.

Genetic mutations in various proteins have been implicated with increased risk or severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in different population groups. In the present case-control study, we have investigated the risk association of single nucleotide mutations present in some of the highly reported anti-inflammatory proteins and/or cytokines, with RA susceptibility in the Pakistani subjects. The study involves 310 ethnically and demographically similar participants from whom blood samples were taken and processed for DNA extraction.

Article Synopsis
  • The C1858T variant of the protein tyrosine phosphatase N22 gene is linked to autoimmune diseases like Type 1 diabetes and autoimmune thyroiditis, causing a mutation that reduces T cell activation.
  • Researchers developed a personalized treatment using liposomes to deliver siRNA that targets this variant allele more effectively when enhanced with a Siglec-10 ligand.
  • The modified lipoplexes (LiposiRNA-Sig10L) showed improved inhibition of the variant mRNA and better restored IL-2 secretion in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients with heterozygous Type 1 diabetes compared to standard treatments.

Autoimmune endocrine disorders, such as type 1 diabetes (T1D) and thyroiditis, at present are treated with only hormone replacement therapy. This emphasizes the need to identify personalized effective immunotherapeutic strategies targeting T and B lymphocytes. Among the genetic variants associated with several autoimmune disorders, the C1858T polymorphism of the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 () gene, encoding for Lyp variant R620W, affects the innate and adaptive immunity.
