日本理化研究所研究人員日前宣布,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了與川崎病發(fā)病有關(guān)的基因,這一基因只要出現(xiàn)微小差異,川崎病的發(fā)病風(fēng)險(xiǎn)就會(huì)大幅提高。
理化研究所基因組醫(yī)學(xué)研究中心發(fā)布公報(bào)說(shuō),該中心研究人員此前依靠全基因組掃描,發(fā)現(xiàn)有10個(gè)基因組區(qū)域與川崎病相關(guān)。在這次研究中,他們重點(diǎn)調(diào)查了其中的4號(hào)染色體上的區(qū)域,發(fā)現(xiàn)基因CASP3的一處單核苷酸多態(tài)性與川崎病的發(fā)病相關(guān)。他們分析了約900名川崎病患者和約1400名正常人的CASP3基因后發(fā)現(xiàn),如果存在這處單核苷酸多態(tài)性,川崎病的發(fā)病風(fēng)險(xiǎn)就會(huì)提高至1.4倍。
單核苷酸多態(tài)性是指在基因組水平上由單個(gè)核苷酸變異所引起的脫氧核糖核酸(DNA)序列多態(tài)性。單核苷酸多態(tài)性與患特定的疾病有關(guān)。
在確定CASP3為川崎病發(fā)病相關(guān)基因后,研究小組表示,他們認(rèn)為還有9個(gè)基因組區(qū)域也可能存在該病相關(guān)基因?;蚪M醫(yī)學(xué)研究中心研究員尾內(nèi)善廣說(shuō),他們將調(diào)查是否還有其他的川崎病相關(guān)基因,從而弄清發(fā)病機(jī)理。
川崎病又稱皮膚黏膜淋巴結(jié)綜合征,是一種原因未明的小兒急性發(fā)熱出疹性疾病,主要表現(xiàn)為皮膚黏膜出疹、淋巴結(jié)腫大和多發(fā)性動(dòng)脈炎。川崎病急性期可引起心肌炎、*炎,15%至20%的川崎病患者可能患上冠狀動(dòng)脈瘤。日本每年約有1萬(wàn)例川崎病新增病例。

Kawasaki disease (KD; OMIM 611775 [OMIM] ) is an acute vasculitis syndrome which predominantly affects small- and medium-sized arteries of infants and children. Epidemiological data suggest that host genetics underlie the disease pathogenesis. Here we report that multiple variants in the caspase-3 gene (CASP3) that are in linkage disequilibrium confer susceptibility to KD in both Japanese and US subjects of European ancestry. We found that a G to A substitution of one commonly associated SNP located in the 5' untranslated region of CASP3 (rs72689236; P = 4.2 x 10–8 in the Japanese and P = 3.7 x 10–3 in the European Americans) abolished binding of nuclear factor of activated T cells to the DNA sequence surrounding the SNP. Our findings suggest that altered CASP3 expression in immune effecter cells influences susceptibility to KD.
