ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Human mannose-binding lectin (MBL) is a serum lectin taking part in the innate immunity by opsonizing various microorganisms for phagocytosis. The MBL serum concentration is affected by several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region of the MBL2 gene.OBJECTIVE:
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between MBL2 polymorphisms and atopic dermatitis (AD) susceptibility.METHODS:
To examine whether the MBL2 SNPs are related to AD susceptibility, we examined 237 patients with AD and 94 controls by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and PCR-sequence specific primer analyses of four polymorphic loci two (H/L and X/Y) within the promoter region and the other two (P/Q and A/B) within exon 1. MBL concentrations in the blood were estimated by ELISA.RESULTS:
The prevalence of haplotype HYPB, leading to MBL deficiency, was significantly decreased in the AD patients compared to the controls (p=0.002), while the prevalence of haplotype HYPA was increased with a clear trend toward significance (p=0.056). The frequency of MBL2 LYPB/LXPA (odds ratio, 0.08; 95% confidence interval, 0.009~0.655; p=0.021) were significantly decreased in the AD patients. The blood log [total immunoglobulin E, IgE] levels of MBL2 HYPA/HYPA, HYPA/LYPA, HYPA/LYPB, HYPA/LYQA, and LYQA/LXPA haplotype pairs were significantly increased in the AD patients.CONCLUSION:
The frequency of MBL2 HYPB haplotype was significantly decreased in the AD patients compared to the controls. The frequency of LYPB/LXPA had a possibly protective effect on AD. Moreover, the MBL2 HYPA haplotype pairs, which were related to higher blood total IgE levels, were possibly associated with extrinsic AD.
