Genetic polymorphisms in IL10RA and TNF modify the association between blood transfusion and risk of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma
AssociationN=1,023Xiaofeng Bi et al.(2012)· American Journal of Hematology

Population-based case-control study of Connecticut women showing that genetic polymorphisms in IL10RA (rs9610) and TNF (rs1800629) genes modify the association between blood transfusion and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) risk. IL10RA rs9610 GG genotype carriers with transfusion history had increased NHL risk (OR=1.9, 95% CI: 1.1-3.2), while AG/AA carriers had decreased risk (OR=0.6, 95% CI: 0.4-0.9), with significant gene-transfusion interaction (P=0.003).

Common variants in genes that mediate immunity and risk of multiple myeloma
AssociationN=672Elizabeth E. Brown et al.(2007)· International Journal of Cancer

A case-control study of 127 multiple myeloma (MM) cases and 545 controls examined 82 common variants in 45 genes mediating immunity. IL4R rs2107356 (−28120T homozygotes, OR=1.91, 95% CI 1.08-3.38) and FCGR2A rs1801274 (−120G homozygotes, OR=1.95, 95% CI 1.06-3.60) were significantly associated with increased MM risk. A haplotype in the LTA*TNF complex (LTA −82C/−90G*TNF −1036C/−487G/−417G, OR=1.63, 95% CI 1.02-2.61) was also associated with increased MM risk compared to controls.

About IL10

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytokine produced primarily by monocytes and to a lesser extent by lymphocytes. This cytokine has pleiotropic effects in immunoregulation and inflammation. It down-regulates the expression of Th1 cytokines, MHC class II Ags, and costimulatory molecules on macrophages. It also enhances B cell survival, proliferation, and antibody production. This cytokine can block NF-kappa B activity, and is involved in the regulation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Knockout studies in mice suggested the function of this cytokine as an essential immunoregulator in the intestinal tract. Mutations in this gene are associated with an increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and rheumatoid arthritis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]
