BACKGROUND: HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a progressive neurological and inflammatory disease, associated with HTLV-1 infection. HAM/TSP neurological disease is a consequence of an inflammatory reaction, and adaptive immune responses, through the secretion of anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines, play an important role in the outcome of infection and disease progression. Studies addressing the association between cytokines functional single nucleotide polymorphisms and HAM/TSP development are scarce.
METHODS: The genetic polymorphisms of cytokine genes were evaluated in HAM/TSP patients (n = 68) and in asymptomatic HTLV-1 positive carriers (n = 83) from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in a case-control study. HTLV-1 infected patients were genotyped for SNPs in five cytokine genes: TNFA-308G/A, IL6-174G/C, IFNG + 874 T/A, TGFB at the codons + 10 T/C and + 25G/C, IL10-592C/A and -819C/T, and -1082A/G and proviral load (PVL) was quantified. Associations between genotypes, haplotypes, clinical outcome and pro viral load were evaluated.
RESULTS: Lack of association between the cytokine polymorphisms and disease outcome was observed. The genotypes TNFA-308GG, IL6-174GG/GC, IL10-592AA and -819CC and TGFb1 high producers phenotypes were correlated with higher PVL in HAM/TSP patients versus asymptomatic carriers.
CONCLUSIONS: We did not observe association between cytokine polymorphisms and risk for HAM/TSP development in Brazilian HTLV-1 infected individuals, regardless of differences in PVL between HAM/TSP versus asymptomatic carriers in specific cytokine polymorphisms.
