Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) of transporter associated with interleukin2(IL-2),interleukin4(IL-4)and the susceptibility of hepatitis B in north China.Methods:Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood leukocytes of hepatitis B patients and healthy controls.Two fragments covering -330 of the IL-2 gene and -590 of the IL-4 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The SNPs were revealed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RELP).Software PHASE 1.0was used to construct the haplotype of every individual.Unconditional Logitic regression model was used to analyze the statistical association of genotype or haplotype in two groups adjusted by gender and age.Results:There was significant difference in the SNPs of IL2 between the healthy controls and the heptitis B patients in north China.Significant difference was also found in the combination of --/GT to the two groups.Conclusion:SNPs of IL2(-330) may have relation to the susceptibility o heptitis B.--/GT was also related to the susceptibility of heptitis B.These findings suggest that SNPs of IL2 is one of the important host factors to the infection of the heptitis B.
