tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 3 (tnfaip3) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. here we investigated the effect of tnfaip3 gene polymorphisms on the risk of allergic rhinitis (ar) in a chinese han population. the case-control study included 540 ar patients and 524 healthy controls. genotyping for tnfaip...

Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma (NLPHL) shows constitutive NF-kappaB activity in the malignant lymphocyte-predominant (LP) cells. Constitutive NF-kappaB activity also plays a central pathogenetic role in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL), where inactivating mutations in the NFKBIA and TNFAIP3 genes, coding for the negative NF-kappaB regulators IkappaBalpha and A20, respective...

BACKGROUND Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is among the most common squamous cell carcinoma in South China and Southeast Asia. Radiotherapy is the primary treatment for NPC. However, radioresistance acts as a significant factor that limits the efficacy of radiotherapy for NPC patients. Growing evidence supports that microRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in radiation response. METHODS Real-...

BACKGROUND Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the TNFAIP3, IFIH1, and IRF5 genes have been associated with several auto-inflammation diseases, while the susceptibility between these genes and idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) were not reported. This study aimed to investigate whether TNFAIP3, IFIH1, and IRF5 gene polymorphisms confer susceptibility for the IIMs in Chinese Han pop...

INTRODUCTION Recent genome-wide and candidate gene association studies in large numbers of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients have suggested approximately 30 susceptibility genes. These genes are involved in three types of biological processes, including immune complex processing, toll-like receptor function and type I interferon production, and immune signal transduction in lymphocyte...

The tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene has been associated with psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes mellitus, systemic lupus erythematosus, and celiac disease. TNFAIP3 encodes A20, a tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-inducible zinc finger protein thought to limit NF-κB-mediated immune responses. In this study, we report association of response of psoriasis to ...

In the paper by Dieguez-Gonzalez and colleagues in the present issue of Arthritis Research & Therapy, the results of a detailed genetic investigation of the recently identified rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus susceptibility region at 6q23 containing the TNFAIP3 gene are reported. Their data confirm the complex nature of the association involving both the TNFAIP3 locus and ...

Purpose Pre-existing and acquired drug resistance are major obstacles to the successful treatment of glioblastomas. Methods We used an integrated resistance model and genomics tools to globally explore molecular factors and cellular pathways mediating resistance to O-alkylating agents in glioblastoma cells. Results We identified a transcriptomic signature that predicts a common in vitro and in ...

INTRODUCTION TNFAIP3 interacting protein 1, TNIP1 (ABIN-1) is involved in inhibition of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation by interacting with TNF alpha-induced protein 3, A20 (TNFAIP3), an established susceptibility gene to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Recent genome-wide association studies revealed association of TNIP1 with SLE in the Caucasian and Chine...

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune disease characterized by a reduced platelet count and an increased risk of bleeding. Although immense research has improved our understanding of ITP, the pathogenesis remains unclear. Here, we investigated the involvement of 25 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the inflammation-related genes, including CD24, CD226, FCRL3, I...
