[CARD15 and TLR4 genes polymorphisms in atopic bronchial asthma]
Abstract:
In order to investigate whether single nucleotide polymorphisms G(+2722)C and 3020insC in CARD15 gene and Asp299Gly in TLR4 gene contribute to atopic bronchial asthma we performed a comparative analysis of alleles and genotypes frequencies of these polymorphisms in Russian patients from Moscow. DNA samples from 283 patients with atopic bronchial asthma and 227 healthy donors were genotyped. There were associations neither of G(+2722)C and 3020insC in CARD15 gene and Asp299Gly in TLR4 gene with asthma nor of markers of CARD15 gene with asthma severity. Haplotype frequency analysis of CARD15 gene polymorphisms did not reveal significant difference between groups. However, a strong association was found between Asp299Gly and asthma severity. Allele Asp of this marker showed association with mild atopic bronchial asthma and allele Gl--with moderate/severe asthma = 0.47, 95% CI [0.24-0.93] i OR = 2.12, 95% CI [1.08-4.18] respectively).

Additionally, environmental and genetic factors play crucial roles in determining an individual's susceptibility to asthma and the severity of their condition.
Critical processes in asthma pathophysiology include:
Asthma-I: Introduction
Pharmacogenetic Phenotypes: Alterations in Pharmacokinetics, Drug Targets and Biologic Milieu
Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.
