Identification of genetic associations of SP110/MYBBP1A/RELA with pulmonary tuberculosis in the Chinese Han population

Abstract: Genetic factors play important roles in the development of tuberculosis (TB). SP110 is a promising candidate target for controlling TB infections. However, several studies associating SP110 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with TB have yielded conflicting results. This may be partly resolved by studying other genes associated with SP110, such as MYBBP1A and RELA. Here, we genotyped 6 SP110 SNPs, 8 MYBBP1A SNPs and 5 RELA SNPs in 702 Chinese pulmonary TB patients and 425 healthy subjects using MassARRAY a… Show more

“…The human SP110 gene is postulated to play roles in the development of clinical TB [4]. And current meta-analysis result supports that the SP110 rs9061 T allele may confer significant risk of PTB in East Asian populations [5]. However, SP110's effects on progression to lung cavitation are unknown yet.…”

“…A total of 424 blood donors matched with cases were recruited as healthy controls described in the previous study [5], among whom, 284 were men and 140 women; the mean age (±SD) was 41.17 ± 17.68 years. There were no significant differences between PTB patients and healthy controls with regard to gender or age (p = 0.266 and 0.329, respectively).…”

“…Odds ratios (OR), 95% confidence Interval (CI) and other statistical analyses were implemented using the R software version 3.1.2. The THESIAS program was used to perform the haplotype analysis (Tregouet et al 2004;Cai et al 2013). The global test for the association of the combined SNPs in TNF-α with PCOS was the (n−1) df test; here, n refers to the number of haplotypes.…”
