▶Genetic polymorphism patterns suggest a genetic driven inflammatory response as pathogenesis in appendicitisAssociationN=343Jan Dimberg et al.(2020)· International Journal of Colorectal Disease
This case-control study analyzes 28 SNPs in 26 inflammatory response genes in 343 patients (100 with appendicitis, 243 controls) using TaqMan genotyping. Significant associations were found for IL-13 rs1800925 (OR=6.02, 95% CI 1.52-23.78), IL-17 rs2275913 (OR=2.38, 95% CI 1.24-4.57), and CCL22 rs223888 (OR=0.12, 95% CI 0.02-0.90), suggesting a genetic-driven inflammatory response as a pathogenic mechanism in appendicitis.
About ART3
This gene encodes an arginine-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase. The encoded protein catalyzes a reversible reaction which modifies proteins by the addition or removal of ADP-ribose to an arginine residue to regulate the function of the modified protein. An ADP-ribosyltransferase pseudogene is located on chromosome 11. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
