Abstract: Recent studies demonstrated that interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RN) plays an important role in metabolic effects. To investigate whether IL1RN polymorphisms are associated with obesity, two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the IL1RN gene [rs4251961 (-828, T> C) and rs315952 (Ser133Ser)] were analyzed in 122 overweigh/obese and 123 control subjects. Overweigh/obese subjects were classified according to body mass index (BMI). SNPStats was used to obtain odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence interval… Show more

“…Studies suggested that IL-1 receptor antagonist plays a great role in metabolic effects and that one synonymous SNP (rs315952, Ser133Ser) of the IL1RN gene was associated with development of obesity and hypertension [67]. Therefore, a therapeutic option targeting several comorbidities may be reducing the activity or expression of Il-1 β or IL-1 receptor 1 [58, 68].…”

“…Use of these ACE inhibitors in hypertensive rats led to significantly decreased LPS-stimulated TNF-α and IL-1β levels, highlighting the ability of these drugs to attenuate inflammation [ 200 ]. Different studies revealed that polymorphisms in the IL-1β gene are associated with higher blood pressure in ethnic populations [ 165 , 201 , 202 ]; however, the question still remains whether IL-1β and IL-18 are inflammatory markers or mediators of hypertension in humans [ 203 ]. Serum levels of IL-1β and IL-1RA were described as predictors of elevated diastolic blood pressure in 537 subjects with insulin resistance syndrome [ 204 ].…”
