Implication of single nucleotide polymorphisms in Interleukin-10 gene (rs1800896 and rs1800872) with severity of COVID-19

Abstract: Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing pandemic which has emerged as a new challenge for the medical sciences. Severity of COVID-19 is mostly determined with overexpressed proinflammatory cytokines eventually leading to endothelial dysfunction causing vital organ injury, especially in the lungs. It has been postulated that various genetic mutations might be associated with an increased risk of disease severity in COVID-19. This study was thus carried out to determine the a… Show more

“…In this study, the COVID-19 mortality rate was associated with the IL10 rs1800896 GG and AG genotypes in the Delta and Omicron BA.4 variants; nevertheless, there was no association between rs1800896 polymorphism with the Alpha variant. Rizvi et al, indicated that AG genotypes was correlated with COVID-19 severity [21]. The G to A polymorphism at rs1800896 controls how the IL10 gene is expressed.…”

“…The IL-10 rs1800872 gene polymorphism was observed to have a significant protective effect against COVID-19 severity in infected patients, with the CC genotype playing a major role (P = 0.01) (28). An additional research study presented evidence suggesting a robust correlation between IL-10 (rs1800872) polymorphism and COVID-19 severity, where the CC genotype acts as a safeguard in preventing the development of severe infection (29).…”

“…Specific genetic mutations of IL-1α were investigated in another review study and found to increase the severity of COVID-19 [ 61 ]. The IL-10 mutation rs1800872 has been found to increase the susceptibility of individuals to both periodontitis and COVID-19 [ 61 63 ]. These findings and future findings may further reveal the role of genetic variations in disease progression and may indicate that serum levels of interleukins alone may not be able to completely explain all findings.…”
