Are polymorphisms of the immunoregulatory factor CD40LG implicated in acute transfusion reactions?

Abstract: The CD40 ligand (CD40L/CD154), a member of TNF superfamily, is notably expressed on activated CD4+ T-cells and stimulated platelets. CD40L is linked to a variety of pathologies and to acute transfusion reactions (ATR). Mutations in this gene (CD40LG) lead to X-linked hyper-IgM syndrome. Some CD40LG polymorphisms are associated with variable protein expression. The rationale behind this study is that CD40L protein has been observed to be involved in ATR. We wondered whether genetic polymorphisms are implicated.… Show more

“…CD40L gene polymorphism was found to influence the presentation of secreted CD40L (44). It has been hypothesized that this genetic characteristic of donors may affect pro-inflammatory secretion of donated platelets in BCs (45, 46). This type of result is plausible as well for other BRMs.…”

“…Il n'est pas aberrant d'imaginer que certains donneurs puissent être enclins à manifester eux-mêmes des symptomatologies super-inflammatoires dès lors que des circonstances extérieures (stimuli) seraient rencontrées (infection par exemple) : leurs cellules données -les plaquettes (et éven-tuellement les leucocytes résiduels) -ont-elles un seuil de déclenchement pro-inflammatoire supérieur à la moyenne des donneurs présentant des polymorphismes plus communs à ces molécules gouvernant l'inflammation ? Certains groupes de recherche -dont le nôtre -explorent cette piste parmi d'autres [61,62]. On pourra inclure dans ce chapitre également le terrain atopique (pro-allergique).…”

“…Thus, we hypothesized the existence of a genetic risk factor in relation to the donor. In an initial study, we investigated the coding sequences, exon-intron junctions and regulatory regions of CD40LG , but we did not find any particular genetic pattern of CD40LG in two groups of individuals regardless of whether their donated platelets induced an AE 16 , despite the fact that two CD40LG polymorphisms are involved in CD40LG regulation, namely, sequence variations in the 5′ UTR of CD40LG (rs3092952) 1 and a CA microsatellite in the 3′ UTR that affects mRNA stability 17 18 .…”
