Title: Systemic Sclerosis, Fibrosing Syndromes and Raynaud's - Clinical Aspects and Therapeutics Poster II
Session Type: ACR Poster Session B
Session Time: 9:00AM-11:00AM
Background/Purpose:
To determine possible association of Cav-1 genetic variants: rs926198, rs959173 and rs9920 with SSc and/or SSc-related ILD progression.
Methods:
Three Cav-1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs 926198, rs 959173 and rs 9920) were genotyped in a total of 630 Turkish individuals (410 SSc patients and 220 healthy subjects). Genotyping was performed using TaqMan 5’ allele discrimination predesigned assays from Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) in a LightCycler® 480 Real-Time PCR System (Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany). Genotyping call rate was > 98% for all the genotyped SNPs. Serum and sputum samples were collected from 54 SSc-ILD patients at 0, 6, and 12 months. Quantitative CT images were taken at 0,12 months. The possible association of Cav-1 gene SNPs and ILD progression in one-year follow up was determined.
Results:
A total of 402 SSc patients were recruited to the study (Mean age: 48.9 (12-78) and F:M; 390:20). The clinical characteristics of patients were as follows: Limited cutaneous SSc vs diffuse cutaneous SSc were 60.4% (n=243) vs 39.6 %(n=159), respectively. Interstitial lung disease was observed in 58.6% of patients (n=222). Anti-topoisomerase I antibodies (ATA) were found in 42.6% of patients (n=176). No significant association was observed between any CAV1 SNP and ATA. Genotype analysis and minor allele frequencies of the Cav-1 rs926198, rs959173 and rs 9920 SNP in patients with SSc and controls were shown in table 1. Among SSc-ILD patients who carried the rs959173 C minor allele displayed significantly higher CAV-1 in serum and lesser progression in ILD than in those carrying TT genotype (0.364±0.118 vs 0.247±072, p<0.001)
Conclusion:
Our results suggest that Cav1 rs959173 C allele may have a protective role in SSc-ILD progressions. Although a clear association of Cav 1 genetic variants and SSc was not determined in the Turkish patients with SSc, similar trends were observed with the previously published Italian cohort by Manetti M1.
