Polymorphism of the IL-10 gene in Azeri population of Iran

Abstract Background Interleukin (IL)-10 is one of the key interleukins in the immune system. It plays an anti-inflammatory role in body by inhibition of the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reducing the expression of major histocompatibility complex II molecules. The single-nucleotide pol...

description Abstract Background Interleukin (IL)-10 is one of the key interleukins in the immune system. It plays an anti-inflammatory role in body by inhibition of the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reducing the expression of major histocompatibility complex II molecules. The single-nucleotide polymorphism in the gene of this interleukin affects its expression level. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the IL-10 gene polymorphism at position -1082A/G in Azeri population of Iran. Methods Blood samples were taken from 254 healthy and non-relevant Iranian Azeri individuals. After DNA extraction, the frequency of IL-10 genotypes and alleles at -1082A/G position was determined by allele specific-PCR method. Then, q-square test was used to compare allele frequencies and IL-10 genotypes with other populations, and p value of < 0.05 was considered significant. Results In Iranian Azeri population, the frequency percentage of AA, AG and GG genotypes in IL-10 gene at the -1082A/G location was 37.4, 43.3 and 19.3%, respectively. The frequency percentage of A and G alleles also were 59.1 and 40.9%, respectively. Based on statistical analysis, frequency of IL-10 genotypes in the current study was very similar to the population of Saudi Arabia, but it had a significant difference with East Asia and Ireland populations. Conclusion Results of the present study indicate similar polymorphism of IL-10 genotype with neighbor ethnicities in Middle East country. Based on patients backgrounds mentioned in their questioners, this polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility to asthma and Alzheimer in this population which are common in the region.
