Popis: Background:SNP rs7574865, located within the third intron of STAT4 gene at chromosome 2, has been associated with susceptibility to SLE among different ethnic groups.1,2 Interestingly, we recently have documented an association between this gene and susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Indian population.3Objectives:To determine whether the STAT4 (rs7574865) SNP is associated with clinical and immunological manifestations in SLE.Methods:The study was carried out on 100 unrelated SLE (SLICC criteria 2012) patients from North-East India. Genotyping of STAT4 rs7574865 SNP was done using Taqman probe and Real-Time Polymerase chain reaction. An association study was performed between the alleles and genotypes of STAT4 rs7574865 with the clinical and immunological manifestations included in the SLE SLICC classification criteria. For all analysis, the statistical significance was fixed at 5% level of significance (p < 0.05).Results:The mean duration of illness was 2.69±2.55 years. Cases and Controls remained in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.The occurrence of Photosensitivity and hyperpigmentation was significantly higher in TT genotype group (97.22% and 77.77%, respectively) with p 500mg/24 hours) and elevated serum creatinine were both significantly higher in TT genotype group as compared to GT and GG (p< 0.001 and p=0.001 respectively).The Anti-dsDNA antibody was significantly associated with TT genotype (p Conclusion:Our study provides evidence regarding the association between STAT4 rs7574865 gene polymorphism is risk factor for cutaneous manifestations, Lupus nephritis and Anti ds-DNA positivity in SLE. So, our findings reinforce the need for further association studies including prospective studies with larger subjects in order to replicate such findings.References:[1]Graham RR, Ph D, Hom G, Ph D, Behrens TW, Bakker PIW De, et al. and the Risk of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
