Association of LPP and ZMIZ1 Gene Polymorphism with Celiac Disease in Subjects from Punjab, Pakistan

It was commonly believed that CD only affected white Europeans, but recent findings show that it is also prevailing in some other racial groups, like South Asians, Caucasians, Africans, and Arabs.

Summary: | Celiac disease (CD) is a complicated autoimmune disease that is caused by gluten sensitivity. It was commonly believed that CD only affected white Europeans, but recent findings show that it is also prevailing in some other racial groups, like South Asians, Caucasians, Africans, and Arabs. Genetics plays a profound role in increasing the risk of developing CD. Genetic Variations in non-
genes such as
,
,
, and many more influence the risk of CD in various populations. This study aimed to explore the association between LPP rs1464510 and ZMIZ1 rs1250552 and CD in the Punjabi Pakistani population. For this, a total of 70 human subjects were selected and divided into healthy controls and patients. Genotyping was performed using an in-house-developed tetra-amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between LPP rs1464510 (χ
= 4.421,
= 0.035) and
rs1250552 (χ2 = 3.867,
= 0.049) and CD. Multinomial regression analysis showed that LPP rs1464510 A allele reduces the risk of CD by ~52% (OR 0.48, CI: 0.24-0.96, 0.037), while C allele-carrying subjects are at ~2.6 fold increased risk of CD (OR 3.65, CI: 1.25-10.63, 0.017). Similarly, the
rs1250552 AG genotype significantly reduces the risk of CD by 73% (OR 0.26, CI: 0.077-0.867,
= 0.028). In summary, Genetic Variations in the LPP and
genes influence the risk of CD in Punjabi Pakistani subjects. LPP rs1464510 A allele and
AG genotype play a protective role and reduce the risk of CD. |
