ABSTRACT
Recent studies underline a potential role of autoimmune and genetic disturbances in this disorder pathogenesis. Variants in genes related to inflammatory processes may possibly predispose to chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) occurrence. The objective of this study was to search for an association of Il1 genes polymorphisms with the pathogenesis of CSU. The examined group consisted of 153 unrelated chronic spontaneous autoreactive urticaria patients. The control group consisted of 104 unrelated healthy volunteers. In all studied subjects, IL1 rs1304037 and rs180058 polymorphisms were examined. The Urticaria Activity Score was used to assess disease intensity. The age of disease onset was also analyzed. Statistically significantly higher prevalence of Il1 rs1304037 TT genotype and T allele among CSU was proved. Similarly, the prevalence of Il1 rs1800587 GG genotype and G allele was statistically significantly higher in the CSU group. Haplotype combination rs1304037C/rs1800587G was statistically significantly more frequent in CSU, whereas rs1304037C/rs1800587A revealed statistically significantly less frequent occurrence in CSU. We did not observe any relationship between Il1 genotypes and the disease severity or age of disease onset. We are the first to suggest a significant role of IL1 gene polymorphisms in the susceptibility to CSU. This observation may lead to a better pathogenesis understanding and more effective treatment. We recommend further studies on other polymorphisms in chronic urticaria to analyze the role of the genetic mechanisms in the pathogenesis of this disorder.
