چکیده

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by intractable inflammation specific to the gastrointestinal tract. The precise etiology of IBD remains unknown. Recently, haplotypes of peptidylarginine deiminase type 4 (PADI4) have been identified as the rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-susceptible gene. PADI4 is located at 1p36, which is one of chromosomal loci susceptible for IBD. Then, we examined whether haplotypes and diplotypes of PADI4 are associated with IBD in the Japanese population. We studied haplotypes of PADI4 in 114 patients with UC, 83 patients with CD, and 200 gender-matched healthy controls by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Frequencies and distributions of haplotypes and diplotypes were compared statistically between patients and controls by logistic regression analysis. The frequency of haplotype 1 was significantly decreased in patients with UC, compared to that in controls (P=0.037; odds ratio (OR)=0.702). In contrast, the frequency of haplotype 2 in patients with UC was significantly higher than that in controls (P=0.003; OR=1.722). Moreover, of a total of 114 patients with UC, 15 (13.2%) had a diplotype homozygous for haplotype 2, the frequency being significantly higher than in controls (9/200, 4.5%; P=0.008, OR=3.215). Our results indicate that haplotype 1 of PADI4 is associated with non-susceptibility to UC, whereas haplotype 2 is susceptible to UC. Thus, it is likely that PADI4 is one of genetic determinants of UC in the Japanese population.

Association between PADI4 and rheumatoid arthritis: a meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVE Polymorphisms and haplotypes of the peptidylarginine deiminase type 4 gene (PADI4) have been reported to be associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a Japanese population. However, subsequent replication studies showed conflicting results. The aim of this study was to determine whether meta-analysis would prove the existence of the association. METHODS PubMed was searched using ...

Investigation of polymorphisms in the PADI4 gene in determining severity of inflammatory polyarthritis.

BACKGROUND A functional haplotype of the peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) gene has recently been identified as a rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility gene in a Japanese but not in a UK population. One possible explanation for this disparity is that the gene determines severity of rather than susceptibility to inflammatory polyarthritis (IP) and that the UK and Japanese cohorts differed in te...

Response to ‘Peptidyl arginine deiminase type IV (PADI4) haplotypes interact with shared epitope regardless of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody or erosive joint status in rheumatoid arthritis: a case control study’

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex polygenic disease characterized by progressive joint destruction. Anti-citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) is the most specific autoantibody for RA. Genetic polymorphisms in the PADI4 gene, encoding citrullinating enzyme peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4), have been associated with susceptibility to RA [1,2]. They have also been reported to be associat...

Contribution of anti-CCP antibodies, proximal interphalangeal joint involvement, HLA-DRB1 shared epitope, and PADI4 as risk factors for the development of rheumatoid arthritis in palindromic rheumatism.

OBJECTIVES To determine which variables at baseline are predictive for the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) from palindromic rheumatism (PR) in a Japanese population. METHODS Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies, joint involvement pattern, genotypes of HLA-DRB1, peptidylarginine deiminase (PADI4), and protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPN22) were examined in 28 patient...

A family based study shows no association between rheumatoid arthritis and the PADI4 gene in a white French population.

BACKGROUND Autoantibodies to citrullinated proteins (ACPA) are considered a specific marker for rheumatoid arthritis. Peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) is the enzyme that converts arginyl into citrullyl residues; different isoforms of the enzyme are expressed in mammals. It has been suggested that the PADI4 gene may contribute to genetic susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis, but conflicting re...
