ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the gene mutation of RANTES and CCR5 in SLE and its significance. Methods One hundred and forty-six definitive SLE patients and 159 controls were collected. SNPs of RANTES promoter and polymorphism of CCR5 were performed by PCR or PCR/RFLP assay, and further confirmed by direct DNA sequencing. Results The frequence of RANTES-403G/G compounded with 28C/C and CCR5/CCR5 was significantly different between SLE and control groups (72.6% vs 58.5%, P 0.05). Conclusions These results indicate that the two SNPs are linkage disequilibrium. Interaction of two SNPs in RANTES and CCR5 is related with SLE. RANTES-403G/G compounded with 28C/C and CCR5/CCR5 may be one of risk factors of SLE. RANTES-403A is probably related with renal damage of SLE.
