Study results supported that immuno-inflammatory pathways in the brain and environment contribute to the etiopathogenesis of bipolar disorder (BD), a chronic affective disease. Our study aimed to assess the relationship between BD risk and interleukin 2 (IL2) and interleukin 2 receptor subunit alpha (IL2RA) variants in a Turkish population. Genomic DNA from 86 diagnosed BD patients and 100 healthy blood donors was extracted. IL2RA rs2104286, IL2 rs2069762, and IL2 rs2069763 variants were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. It was compared to the relationship between the genotype distributions of these variants and clinical characteristics. Results were evaluated statistically. A statistically significant difference in the genotype distribution of the IL2RA rs2104286 variant was found between patients and controls. There was no GG genotype in the patient group. The IL2RA rs2104286 AA genotype was more common in the patient group than the controls, and the AG genotype was higher in the controls compared to the patients (p = 0.001, p = 0.001, respectively). The IL2 rs2069762 and IL2 rs2069763 genotype distributions did not differ between the patient and control groups (p > 0.05). We found that the clinical global impression severity (CGI-S) score was higher in those with IL2 rs2069762 TG and GG genotypes. In this study, we showed for the first time that the genotype distribution of IL2RA rs2104286 and IL2 rs2069762 is associated with BD susceptibility and CGI-S score in a Turkish population.
