Tnfrsf1b Is Associated With Anca In Ibd
INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASES(2016)
摘要
The genetic basis of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody, an important biomarker of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), has never been thoroughly examined on a genome-wide scale. In this study, we performed a 2-stage genome-wide association study (GWAS) on antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in IBD cases. In the 2959 IBD cases in the discovery stage, we observed an association between a variant in the gene TNFRSF1B with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody level (rs5745994, minor allele frequency = 0.028, beta = 18.12, 95% CI, 11.82-24.22, P = 1.89 x 10(-8)). This association was replicated in an independent cohort of 419 IBD cases (beta = 16.91, 95% CI, 6.13-27.69, P = 2.38 x 10(-3)). With a Q-value of 0.036, we performed a fixed-effect meta-analysis for the association of rs5745994 in both cohorts and observed a stronger association signal (beta = 17.81, 95% CI, 12.36-23.25, P = 8.97 x 10(-10)). TNFRSF1B gene codes for tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor 2 (TNFR2), thereby we examined the reported TNFRSF1B variant with serum TNFR2 level. We observed a negative association with serum TNFR2 level being 8.23 EU/mL in carriers and 9.12 EU/mL in noncarriers (P = 0.033). This finding indicates the functional role of identified TNFRSF1B variant in IBD serology and may be reflective of the underlying biological mechanisms that determine clinical expression and/or response to certain therapies.
