BACKGROUND: Sickle cell anemia (SCA), a disorder with an important inflammatory component, where vasoocclusion is major contributor to the disease pathophysiology. Pro-inflammatory cytokines play an important regulatory role in the process of inflammation. We investigated the expression TL1A/DR3/DcR3 cytokine signaling pathway in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and their corresponding plasma levels in SCA subjects who presented with acute painful episodes.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: PBMC were isolated from the blood of SCA subjects and normal healthy controls. RNA isolated from PBMC was used for real time gene expression of TL1A/DR3/DcR3. Gene expression was compared in subgroups within SCA subjects with co-inherited fetal hemoglobin (HbF) or alpha-globin gene deletions. Plasma prepared from blood was used for determination of TL1A/DR3/DcR3 proteins by ELISA assays.
RESULTS: In the PBMC of SCA subjects, expression of TL1A and DcR3 is elevated, while DR3 expression is lowered in comparison to normal control PBMC. In SCA subjects with HbF > 10%, TL1A/DcR3 expression is lower, while HbF < 10% is associated with increased TL1A/DcR3 expression. Moreover, subjects with HbF > 10% appear to have significantly fewer pain episodes in comparison to those with HbF < 10%. Deletion of alpha-globin genes appears to have no significant effect on TL1A/DR3/DcR3 expression. Circulating levels of TL1A, DR3 and DcR3 in plasma were significantly elevated in SCA subjects.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated TL1A and DcR3 expression in PBMC of SCA subjects during painful vasoocclusive crisis, suggest an altered TL1A expression may contribute to the pathophysiology of vasoocclusive crisis in SCA. HbF > 10% appears to moderate TL1A elevation, while HbF < 10% exacerbates TL1A/DcR3 responses. Furthermore, subjects with HbF > 10% have significantly lower pain episodes reported as compared to subjects with HbF < 10%.
