Popis: The nuclear receptor coactivator 5 (NCOA5) has been linked to several inflammatory disorders, including Behcet's disease (BD). We evaluated the expression of NCOA5 messenger RNA (mRNA) using real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and analyzed the rs2903908 T > C of NCOA5 using TaqMan allelic discrimination assay in 49 Egyptian BD patients and 50 controls. The NCOA5 mRNA levels were higher in patients compared to controls (p = .02), female patients compared to males (p = .037), and in patients with ocular involvement (p = .049). Non-CC genotype carriers had a higher frequency of articular manifestations compared with CC carriers (p = .047). Genotypes CC + CT were associated with reduced risk of cutaneous involvement (OR = 0.27, p = .04). CC carriers with active BD or cutaneous manifestations displayed significantly lower NCOA5 mRNA expression than TT carriers. Our results demonstrate that NCOA5 is linked to BD clinical findings and activity.
