Abstract

Background. Cytokine and toll-like receptor gene polymorphisms may impact oral tolerance formation in infants. Objective: To determine the genotype distribution of IL-10 (G1082A, C592A) and TLR 4 (Asp299Gly) gene polymorphisms in children with different family history of allergy residing in Grodno region; to analyze the association between gene polymorphisms and concentrations of fecal calprotectin (FCP) and urine eosinophil protein X (UEoPX) in infants. Material and Methods. 92 infants were recruited and analyzed for IL-10 (G1082A, C592A) and TLR 4 (Asp299Gly) gene polymorphisms. Concentrations of FCP and UEoPX were examined in dynamics in children aged 1 and 3 months. Results. 80.4% and 48.9% of infants were carriers of the mutant allele of the G1082A and C592A polymorphisms respectively. 70.5% of children with negative family history of allergy were carriers of the wild G allele of G1082A polymorphism. Carriage of the mutant A allele of G1082A polymorphism is associated with lower FCP concentration in infants aged 1 month (AA: 1.9 ng/mL [1.9; 3.1], GA: 15.9 ng/mL [1.9; 93.8]) and GG: 88.3 ng/mL [2.4; 230.1]). The level of UEoPX in 3 months old infants with homozygote AA genotype was significantly (p=0.019) higher than in infants with heterozygote CA genotype (3.2 ng/ml [2.4; 4.5] and 2.3 ng/ml [1.3; 3.3] respectively). Conclusion. Carriage of the wild G allele of G1082A polymorphism is associated with higher fecal calprotectin concentration in one month old infants and significantly lower level of urine eosinophil protein X in 3 months old infants.
