Nucleotide variation in IL‐10 and IL‐12 and their receptors and cervical and vulvar cancer risk: A hybrid case–parent triad and case–control study
AssociationN=4,300Shehnaz K. Hussain et al.(2013)· International Journal of Cancer

This hybrid case-parent triad and case-control study examined associations between 76 tagSNPs in IL10 and IL12 cytokine pathway genes (IL10, IL12A, IL12B, IL10RA, IL10RB, IL12RB1, IL12RB2) and cervical/vulvar cancer risk. Key findings include: IL10RA rs9610 (OR=1.76, 95% CI 1.15–2.68) and rs4252314 (OR=2.23, 95% CI 1.26–3.96) associated with increased cervical cancer risk; IL12RB2 rs4297265 (OR=0.46) and rs2229546 (OR=0.43) associated with reduced cervical SCC risk; IL12B rs3181224 associated with reduced vulvar SCC risk (OR=0.30, 95% CI 0.12–0.74); and IL12RB1 rs11575934 (OR=1.51, 95% CI 1.12–2.05) associated with increased cervical adenocarcinoma risk.

About IL10RB

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cytokine receptor family. It is an accessory chain essential for the active interleukin 10 receptor complex. Coexpression of this and IL10RA proteins has been shown to be required for IL10-induced signal transduction. This gene and three other interferon receptor genes, IFAR2, IFNAR1, and IFNGR2, form a class II cytokine receptor gene cluster located in a small region on chromosome 21.
