RESUMEN
Antecedentes y

objetivo:

Existe un debate creciente acerca de si el factor de necrosis tumoral alfa (TNF-α)-308 está asociado a la espondilitis anquilosante (EA). El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar si el TNF-α-308 está implicado en la susceptibilidad genética, así como las características clínicas y la respuesta terapéutica de EA en la etnia china de Han.

Métodos:

Se incluyó en el presente estudio a 260 pacientes de EA, y a 260 donantes de sangre sanos y étnicamente equiparables. Se identificó el polimorfismo del promotor de TNF-α-308 mediante amplificación de la reacción en cadena de la polimerasa, con prueba de polimorfismo de longitud de fragmentos de restricción.

Resultados:

El análisis genético de la población reflejó que la prevalencia del alelo A y el genotipo G/A fue igualmente infrecuente tanto en los pacientes de EA (3,85% y 7,69%) como en los sujetos sanos (4,23% y 8,46%). En comparación con los portadores del genotipo G/G, se observó una tasa de sedimentación eritrocítica y de proteína C reactiva sérica marcadamente elevadas en los pacientes de EA con la variante G/A (87,06±49,4 vs. 55,53±42,99mm/h, p=0,0126; 54,95±27,77 vs. 34,36±36,13mg/dl, p=0,0116, respectivamente), presentándose siempre con dolor vertebral inflamatorio (70 vs. 43,33%, p=0,0214) y sacroilitis relativamente leve (65 vs. 41,67%; p=0,0431). El alelo G y el fenotipo G/G fueron más frecuentes en los pacientes que respondieron bien al tratamiento anti-TNF-α (96,55 vs. 73,53%, p=0,0032; 93,1 vs. 47,06%, p=0,0015), mientras que no se produjo una superioridad obvia de ambos en la predicción de la respuesta terapéutica de las medicaciones convencionales para EA.

Conclusiones:

Nuestros datos indican que el polimorfismo TNF-α puede influir más en las características clínicas que en la susceptibilidad a EA, en la etnia china de Han (AU)
ABSTRACT
Background and

objective:

There is ongoing debate as to whether tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-308 is associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). The aim of the present study was to determine whether TNF-α-308 is involved into genetic susceptibility, clinical features and therapeutic response of AS in Han Chinese.

Methods:

Two hundred and sixty AS patients with 260 ethnically matched healthy blood donors were enrolled into the present study. TNF-α-308 promoter polymorphism was identified using polymerase chain reaction amplification with restriction fragment length polymorphism assay.

Results:

Population genetic analysis showed that the prevalence of allele A and G/A genotype was equally infrequent in both AS patients (3.85% and 7.69%) and healthy subjects (4.23% and 8.46%). Compared with the carriers of G/G genotype, remarkably elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and serum C-reactive protein were observed in AS patients with G/A variant (87.06±49.40 vs. 55.53±42.99mm/h, P=.0126; 54.95±27.77 vs. 34.36±36.13mg/dl, P=.0116, respectively), and they always presented with inflammatory spinal pain (70.00% vs. 43.33%, P=0.0214) and suffered relatively mild sacroiliitis (65.00% vs. 41.67%, P=0.0431). The allele G and G/G genotype were more frequent in good responders to anti-TNF-α treatment (96.55% vs. 73.53%, P=.0032; 93.10% vs. 47.06%, P=.0015), whereas there was no obvious superiority of them in predicting therapeutic response of conventional medications for AS.

Conclusions:

Our data suggest that TNF-α-308 polymorphism may influence the clinical features rather than susceptibility to AS in our Han Chinese (AU)
