dc.description.abstract | Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with increased cardiovascular (CV)
mortality. Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) activates the innate immune response via NF-kB pathway and mitogenactivated
protein kinase signaling, leading to expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The G
allele of TLR4 rs4986790 (+ 896A > G, Asp299Gly) gene polymorphism has been implicated in reduction of risk of
atherosclerosis. In this study, 1481 RA patients fulfilling the 1987 American College of Rheumatology (ACR)
criteria were genotyped for the rs4986790 TLR4 variant to determine the influence of this variant in the risk of CV
events in these patients. Also, HLA-DRB1 status was determined using molecular based methods. Moreover,
potential influence of rs4986790 variant in the development of subclinical atherosclerosis was assessed in a
subgroup of RA patients with no history of CV events by the measurement of surrogate markers of subclinical
atherosclerosis. No statistically significant differences in allele or genotype frequencies for the rs4986790 variant
between RA patients who experienced CV events or not were found. Likewise, no significant association between
this gene variant and any of the surrogate markers of subclinical atherosclerosis was found. In summary,
results in our study do not support the hypothesis that the rs4986790 (+ 896A > G, Asp299Gly) TLR4 variant may
influence predisposition for subclinical atherosclerosis and clinically evident CV disease in RA patients | en_US |
