Interleukin-13 gene polymorphisms at −1055 C/T and +2044 G/A positions in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck

Abstract: This study suggests that there is no association between IL-13 gene polymorphisms (at position -1055C/T and +2044GI A) and susceptibility of the patients to SCC of head and neck.

“…Similarly, anti-proliferative effect of IL-13 on human solid tumors that inhibit their clonal growth and DNA synthesis is shown 46 . In contrast to this most previous studies involving this variants recorded null result for its association with different cancers such as head and neck carcinoma 47 and lung cancer 48 . Nevertheless a recent meta-analysis study suggests the possibility of IL-13+rs1800925 genotype as a risk factor for gliomas and IL-13+rs20541 contributes towards cancer 49 .…”

“…Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral cavity that affects tooth-supporting tissues and alveolar bone, leading to progressive tooth loss [1][2][3] . The pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis is multifactorial, resulting from a complex interaction between pathogenic microbes, host immune responses, environmental and genetic factors.…”

“…The pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis is multifactorial, resulting from a complex interaction between pathogenic microbes, host immune responses, environmental and genetic factors. [3][4][5] Although bacterial infection is the primary cause in triggering periodontal disease, it's progression depends on the production of host mediators in response to bacteria and it's metabolic products. 4,6 Innate and adaptive immune reactivity control the response to periodontal pathogens 7 .…”

“…Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral cavity that affects tooth-supporting tissues and alveolar bone, leading progressively to tooth loss and can affect individual's oral health-related quality of life [1][2][3][4]. Chronic periodontitis affects nearly 50% of adult population and 60% of aged population globally, being considered the most prevalent inflammatory disease worldwide [5].…”

“…The pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis is multifactorial, resulting from a complex interaction between pathogenic microbes, the host immune responses, genetic and environmental factors [3,5,6,]. Although bacterial infection is the primary cause in triggering periodontal disease, it's progression depends on the production of host mediators in response to bacteria and it's metabolic products [3]. Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum are major culprits in periodontal destruction and are highly associated with periodontitis development [5,7].…”
