Abstract:
The study included 50 adult patients with shingles by which analyzed the clinical course of the disease depending on the gene polymorphism of interleukin-10 (rs 1800896) and toll-like receptor 2 (rs 5743708). According to the results of our study, it was established that genotype AA of gene Toll-like receptor 2 was associated with a high risk of Varicella-Zoster virus reactivation and manifestation of herpes zoster, moderate course. Analysis of the IL-10 gene polymorphism showed that genotype TT was associated with a risk of the development severe complicated course of shingles. The genotype CC of gene IL-10 caused to formation of recurrence course of the disease, and also significantly more frequently registered in patients with disseminated form of herpes zoster compared with patients with localized and generalized forms of the disease (χ2=11,94, р=0.0003). Subject to the formation of localized form in carriers of genotype CC more often was occurred damage paravertebral ganglia (p=0.01).
