Popis: | Gout is the most common arthritis and it is associated to urate monosodium crystals deposits in articulations, kidney and soft tissue. The urate monosodium crystals deposit initiates an inflammatory response; mediated by NLRP3 inflammasome, with the release of interleukin 1β. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is involved in this response. Although serum urate level is a strong predictor of incident gout, only about half of those with serum urate concentrations ≥10mg/dL develop clinically evident gout over 15 years. Therefore, it has been postulated that other factors, including genetic or immunity related factors, seems to be necessary to the apparition of the acute gout flare beside hyperuricemia. The association of TLR4 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2149356 and gout risk is controversial with different results according to different populations. |
