Abstract:Objective: Susceptibility to Graft-Versus-Host Disease (GvHD) following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) has been linked to the NOD2 gene, but results have been so far conflicting among individual studies. The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate NOD2 (nucleotide-binding oligomerisation domain containing 2) polymorphisms as possible susceptibility loci for GvHD as well as other life-threatening complications following HSCT. Methods: Available studies addressing a possible contribution of … Show more
“…In the present study, no significant association between donors/ recipients G908 SNP and aGVHD p=0.8. As well as donors / recipients R702W SNP and aGVHD p=0.8.Our results are consistent with Nguyen et al 26 & Tanabe et al 28 .Controversly, Van der et al 29 & Zhao et al 23 reported significant association. These conflicting results regarding G908R and R702W SNPs with our results may be due to first, the number of NOD2 genotypes analyzed were limited 3.1%, 1.6% compared to 7%, 8%, and may, therefore, ultimately reduce the power of analysis.…”

“…In this study no significant association between donor NOD2 1007fs SNP and aGVHD p=0.5.These results are consistent with other studies 25, 26 . In contrast, some studies show significant association between donor NOD2 1007fs SNP and aGVHD 8, 23 . This conflict may be attributed to ethnic variation / narrow scale study population.…”

“…These results were consistent with Gruhn et al 30 who reported no significant association between donor / recipients NOD2 SNPs and cGVHD. Zhao et al 23 also reported no significant association between cGVHD and NOD2 genotype in donor and recipient.…”
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) has been associated with non-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene polymorphisms after allogenic Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT). Objective: This study aims to investigate the role of three polymorphisms in Nucleotide-binding Oligomerisation Domain (NOD2) gene on the occurrence / severity of acute GVHD among Egyptian population. Methodology: A total of 64 patients and their corresponding donors who underwent aHSCT from HLA-identical matched siblings were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results were confirmed by automated laser sequencer. Results: There was highly statistical significant association between NOD2 recipient l007fs allele and higher incidence of aGVHD p= 0.006. There was no significant association between NOD2 donor l007fs allele, G908R allele in donors and recipients, R702W in donors and recipients with incidence and severity of aGVHD. Conclusion: This research an original pilot study to demonstrate that the NOD2 SNP13 ( Leu1007fs) is a possible risk factor for aGVHD among Egyptian population.
