摘要目的 探讨中国汉族血友病A(HA)患者肿瘤坏死因子α(TNF-α)-308基因多态性及细胞毒性T淋巴细胞相关抗原4(CTLA-4)-318基因多态性与凝血因子Ⅷ(FⅧ)抑制物的相关性.方法 采用聚合酶链反应结合限制性内切酶片段长度多态性(PCR-RFLP),对140例经过FⅧ替代治疗的HA患者和108名正常对照者的TNF-α及CTLA-4基因的单碱基多态性进行检测.所有HA患者样本均应用改良的Nijmegen方法检测FⅧ抑制物活性.结果 在HA患者中,TNF-α-308 G/G基因型118例(84.3%),G/A基因型18例(12.8%),A/A基因型4例(2.9%);CTLA-4-318 C/C基因型108例(77.2%),C/T基因型30例(21.4%),T/T基因型2例(1.4%).TNF-α-308、CTLA-4-318等位基因频率在HA病例组与正常对照组间差异均无统计学意义(P＞0.05),关联分析显示携带TNF-α-308 A等位基因HA患者发生FⅧ抑制物的风险是非A等位基因携带患者的7.519倍(OR=7.519,95%CI=3.168～17.844);而携带TNF-α-308 A等位基因重型HA患者发生FⅧ抑制物的风险是非A等位基因携带重型患者的8.163倍(OR=8.163,95%CI=2.521～26.434).携带CTLA-4-318 T等位基因血友病A患者发生FⅧ抑制物的风险与非T等位基因携带患者的差异无统计学意义(OR=1.586,95%CI=0.729～3.450).结论 TNF-α-308基因多态性与中国汉族人群重型HA患者发生FⅧ抑制物具有相关性,该基因可能为HA患者替代治疗产生抑制物的调节基因之一.

abstractsObjective To investigate the potential association between factor Ⅷ inhibitor development and polymorphisms of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)-308 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein-4 gene in Chinese Han patients with hemophilia A(HA). Methods The single base change polymorphism in TNF-α and CTLA-4 gene was analyzed in 140 Chinese Han patients with hemophilia A who have been treated with plasma-derived FⅧ concentrates and 108 normal controls by using PCR-restrictive fragment length polymorphism(RFLP). All of the HA patients' plasma samples were measured by modified-Nijmegen assay simultaneously. Results In HA patients,G/G genotype,G/A genotype and A/A genotype were detected in 118 (84.3%) ,18( 12.8% ) and 4 cases(2.9% )respectively; C/C genotype,C/T genotype and T/T genotype were detected in 108(77.2% ), 30 (21.4%) and 2 cases( 1.4% )respectively. The difference in the genotype frequencies between HA patients and controls was nonsignificant ( P ＞ 0.05 ). Patients who were carriers of homozygotes for A allele had a higher risk of inhibitor development compared with those who were not( OR =7. 519, 95% CI = 3. 168 - 17. 844). Severe HA patients who were carriers of homozygotes for A allele had a higher risk of inhibitor development compared with those who were not ( OR =8. 163, 95% CI =2.521 -26. 434 ). There was no statistical difference in the risk of inhibitor development between the patients who were carriers or not ( OR = 1. 586, 95% CI = 0. 729 - 3. 450 ). Conclusion TNF-α-308 gene polymorphism is significantly associated with inhibitor development in Chinese Han patients with severe hemophilia A. TNF-α gene may be a useful marker and potential modulator of the immune response to replacement therapy for hemophilia A patients.
