Polymorphism in 3′‐untranslated region of toll‐like receptor 4 gene is associated with protection from hepatitis B virus recurrence after liver transplantation

Abstract: Our findings indicate that polymorphism in 3'-untranslated regions of the TLR4 gene may be related to protection from HBV recurrence after liver transplantation in Han Chinese patients.

“…Kornman et al (36) found that a variant in IL-1B associated with high levels of IL-1␤ production is a strong indicator of increased susceptibility to severe periodontitis; this is yet another example of how the genetic background prone to accelerated inflammation is linked to periodontitis. The genetic variation of rs11536889 is also associated with severe gastric atrophy in H. pylori seropositive Japanese (18), hepatitis type B virus recurrence after liver transplantation (19), and increased prostate cancer risk (19). The associations may be related to accelerated inflammation caused by LPS from H. pylori in gastric mucosa, hepatitis type B virus-related proteins in the liver, and Gram-negative bacteria in the prostate, respectively.…”

“…Later, Hishida et al (18) found that the G/C or C/C genotype was associated with severe gastric atrophy in Helicobacter pylori seropositive Japanese subjects. Zhou et al (19) found that the C/C genotype was significantly associated with hepatitis type B virus recurrence after liver transplantation. Miedema et al (20) found that this SNP was associated with an increased risk of developing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.…”

“…In evaluating possible recipient-specific risk factors, Zhou et al [24] conducted an association study between polymorphisms in toll-like receptors (TLRs) in 125 patients who underwent LT and their clinical outcomes, specifically HBV recurrence. They found that the variant genotype of rs11536889 (TLR4) was significantly associated with HBV recurrence and might play in role in protecting against HBV infection.…”
