Tóm tắt

Abstract Background Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the thyroid gland and is also the main cause of hypothyroidism. A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) suggested an association of three novel genetic variants with HT in a population of Caucasian origin (Croatian). A case-control study was performed to investigate the association of these three newly suggested genetic variants with HT in a non-Caucasian ethnic group, an Arab-Berber from Algeria. Three variants (rs12944194 located 206 kb from SDK2, rs791903 inside IP6K3, and rs75201096 inside GNA14) were genotyped using real-time PCR. Results There were no significant differences in allele frequencies of the three genetic variants between HT cases and controls. However, the present study showed nominal significance in the genotype distribution of rs791903 (IP6K3 gene) between HT patients and the control group (P = 0.024); we observed a decrease in the frequency of rs791903 recessive homozygotes (CC) in HT cases versus controls (OR = 0.476, P = 0.025). Conclusion This is the first study that showed the genotypic association of IP6K3 intronic variant with decreased risk for HT in non-Caucasian, Algerian, population, whereas we did not confirm the association of SDK2 and GNA14 genetic variants with HT. The IP6K3 gene (inositol hexaphosphate kinase 3), located near major histocompatibility complex (MHC), has previously been associated with other common autoimmune diseases beside HT, such as Graves’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis, which is providing more evidence of a good candidacy for the genetic contribution to the development of HT and autoimmunity.
