RESUMO
Chronic periodontitis (CP) is one of the most common chronic inflammatory diseases and cytokines play a pivotal role in the regulation of immune response. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13) are anti-inflammatory cytokines and several polymorphisms of them have been proved involved in periodontal disease. This study aimed to evaluate whether three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs2070874 and rs2243248 from IL4 and rs1800925 from IL13, are associated with CP in a Han Chinese population consisting of 440 moderate or severe CP patients and 324 healthy controls. Genomic DNA extracted from buccal epithelial cells of the included participants were genotyped using a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry method. No significant association between rs2070874 or rs1800925 and CP was found, while the frequencies of rs2243248 and two haplotypes C-G-T and C-T-T showed significant differences between the two groups. The results suggest that the polymorphism rs2243248 and haplotypes C-G-T and C-T-T may be associated with CP susceptibility in the present Han Chinese population.

BACKGROUND: Chronic periodontitis (CP) is a multifactorial complex periodontal disease involving immune response, inflammation, alveolar bone resorption, and attachment loss. Colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) controls the production, differentiation, and function of macrophages and plays a vital role in the innate immune response to the external microbial infections, suggesting the potential role of CSF-1 in the pathogenesis of periodontitis. The objective of this study is to determine the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs333967, rs2297706, and rs1058885 with CP in the Han Chinese population. METHODS: Genomic DNA was isolated from buccal epithelial cells obtained from unrelated Chinese participants (440 patients with CP and 324 controls). The SNPs were genotyped by a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry method. RESULTS: Three previously identified SNPs were genotyped in Han Chinese with Shanghai origin, but none of them was statistically significantly associated with CP. However, a T-C-G haplotype in male participants showed an observed P value of 4.52(E-08), with an odds ratio of 0.092. CONCLUSION: None of the individual SNPs among rs333967, rs2297706, and rs1058885 in CSF-1 was found statistically significantly associated with CP in the Han Chinese population with Shanghai origin, whereas a haplotype T-C-G showed an observed statistically significant association with decreased risk of CP susceptibility in males.

PURPOSE: To investigate the correlation between 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 7 genes and periodontitis of susceptibility in Shanghai Chinese patients. METHODS: Genotypes of randomly grouped 50 health control subjects and 48 patients with chronic periodontitis were genotyped by MALDI-TOF MS detection system. A questionnaire, medical history, family history, signs, laboratory tests, treatment, follow-up information were collected. Statistical analysis of Chi-square test was performed using SPSS13.0 software package. RESULTS: In the screening of the 12 target SNPs,the GG genotype of rs2891168 correlated significantly with periodontitis, OR=3.071(95%CI:1.018-9.260,P=0.046). CONCLUSION: The GG genotype of rs2891168 may correlate significantly with periodontitis of Shanghai Chinese patients and further studies are needed to verify this finding.
