CCL5/RANTES chemokine gene promoter polymorphisms are not associated with atopic and nonatopic asthma in a Spanish population.
Abstract
CCL5/RANTES, a member of the C-C chemokine family, is a potent eosinophil, monocyte, basophile and lymphocyte chemo-attractant at the site of inflammation. Recent studies revealed that a functional mutation at the -403 position in the promoter may have significance for atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma, sarcoidosis, rheumatoid arthritis and HIV infection, and others. Another polymorphism in the -28 position has been reported. Our objective was to investigate the possible influence of the CCL5/RANTES promoter polymorphisms in the different types of bronchial asthma. CCL5/RANTES genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment-length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 306 asthmatic patients with non-atopic (n = 145) and atopic (n = 161) asthma and 242 controls. The 81.9% of the atopic asthma patients for -403G/A had the G allele and the A allele frequency was 18%. Of the non-atopic asthma patients, the G allele frequency was 79.7% and the A allele was 20.3%. Concerning the -28C/G polymorphism, the frequency of the CCL5/RANTES -28G allele in our patients is 2.8%, which is similar to Spanish adult population. After comparing patients with asthma, atopic patients, non-atopic patients and control population, we found no significant deviation in the distribution of the alleles or genotypes of CCL5/RANTES promoter polymorphisms in any tested comparison. Therefore, human CCL5/RANTES gene promoter polymorphisms are not associated with the different types of bronchial asthma in Spanish population.
