Abstract

Introduction:

Asthma is a common chronic condition in children. Several studies have explored the potential association between IL10 rs1800896 polymorphism and the risk of asthma in children, but the findings have been inconsistent. To address these discrepancies, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the relationship between IL10 rs1800896 polymorphisms and the susceptibility to pediatric asthma.

Methods:

A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and CNKI databases to identify eligible studies through April 2022. Meta-analysis was then performed using five genetic models: dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous, and allele.

Results:

A total of 12 studies comprising 1645 cases along with 1447 controls were included in this meta-analysis. It was found that rs1800896 was not associated significantly with susceptibility to childhood asthma in all genetic models investigated. Subgroup analysis based on the ethnic background of the subjects revealed that rs1800896 was significantly linked to a lower risk of pediatric asthma among Asians in the homozygous model (OR = 0.311, 95% CI = 0.152-0.637, P = 0.001) and in the recessive model (OR = 0.585, 95% CI = 0.405-0.846, P = 0.004), whereas no significant relationship was observed in Egyptians (P > 0.05).

Conclusion:

In conclusion, IL10 rs1800896 polymorphism may be useful as a predictive marker for childhood asthma in Asians, although further studies are needed to validate the study results.

Asthma-II: Pathophysiology and Classification

Asthma-II: Pathophysiology and Classification

Asthma is a prevalent chronic respiratory condition marked by inflammation and hyperresponsiveness of the airways. Its pathophysiology involves complex interactions among inflammatory pathways, immune responses, and neural mechanisms.
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

Asthma-I: Introduction

Asthma is a chronic respiratory ailment that requires careful management due to its varying symptoms and influencing factors. It is characterized by airway inflammation, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, and reversible airflow obstruction, leading to symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing. The symptom frequency and intensity may vary considerably over time. It is also linked to immune system responses to allergens and irritants, highlighting the complex...

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management

Asthma is a chronic pulmonary condition involving inflammation of the airways, hyper-reactivity, and reversible obstruction of the airways. This condition can significantly impact a person's quality of life, making breathing difficult and leading to distressing symptoms.
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.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Pleiotropy

Pleiotropy

Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

Human Genetics

Human Genetics

Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...
