Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the risk,severity and prognosis of sepsis in Chinese patients of Han nationality.Methods One hundred and three Han nationality patients who developed sepsis after surgery,aged 18-80 years,were enrolled in the sepsis group,and 114 Han nationality patients without sepsis after surgery,aged 18-80 years,were enrolled in the control group.Venous blood samples were taken from the peripheral vein and three SNPs in TLR4 gene,rs10759932,rs11536889 and rs2737190,were genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry analysis.Correction for Logistic regression analysis was made to eliminate the effects of sex,age,underlying diseases and operation methods.The correlation between genotypes of SNP and occurrence of sepsis,organ dysfunction,septic shock and death from sepsis was analyzed.The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (Cl) were calculated.Results Compared with the control group,there was a significant difference in genotype frequency ratios of rs10759932 (P < 0.05),but there was no significant difference in genotype frequency ratios of the other two SNPs in sepsis group (P > 0.05).There was correlation between rs10759932 and the occurrence of sepsis,and the variant allele (CT + CC genotypes) of rs10759932 increased the risk of sepsis (OR =1.86,95% Cl 1.17-2.97,P < 0.05).There was no correlation between the three SNPs and sepsis-related organ dysfunction,septic shock and death from sepsis (P > 0.05).Conclusion There is correlation between the variant allele of TLR4 rs10759932 and the increase in risk of sepsis after surgery in Chinese patients of Han nationality.
