Interleukin‐10, Polymorphism in SLC11A1(formerly NRAMP1), and Susceptibility to Tuberculosis
Abstract
Host genetic factors are major determinants of susceptibility to tuberculosis, and an understanding of the molecular basis of this observation has major implications for the development of novel therapies and vaccines. Slc11a1 (formerly Nramp1), the first murine infection susceptibility locus identified, regulates early innate responses to intracellular pathogens. Variation in the human homologue SLC11A1 is associated with and linked to tuberculosis in genetically different populations. In a case-control study of 329 tuberculosis case patients and 324 control subjects, the association between allele 2 of a functional SLC11A1 polymorphism and tuberculosis has been reproduced. This variant is associated with higher lipopolysaccharide-induced production of the macrophage-deactivating cytokine interleukin-10. Furthermore, monocytes from persons who develop tuberculosis innately produce more interleukin-10 than do monocytes from healthy control subjects. These data therefore confirm the importance of SLC11A1 in tuberculosis susceptibility in humans and suggest that SLC11A1 influences tuberculosis susceptibility by regulation of interleukin-10.

“In both humans and mice, the function of NRAMP1 affects the balance between proinflammatory mediators such as TNF and IFN-γ and antiinflammatory ones such as IL-10 towards adequate production of the former (Awomoyi et al., 2002;Fritsche et al., 2003Fritsche et al., , 2008;;Kovarova et al., 2000).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
