  • The IL12B gene does not confer susceptibility to coeliac disease.

    • Coeliac disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder where dietary gluten is not tolerated. In the lesion there are gluten reactive T cells predominantly secreting gamma-interferon. Both HLA and non-HLA genes contribute to CD susceptibility. Interleukin-12 (IL-12) regulates gamma-interferon production. The IL12B gene is located in a region (5q31.1-33.1) where there is evidence for linkage with CD. Allele 1 of an IL12B 3'UTR single-nucleotide polymorphism leads to increased expression of IL-12, and was recently implicated in susceptibility for type 1 diabetes (T1D). We found no evidence for association of allele 1 to CD by the transmission/disequilibrium test or case-control approach. No increased frequency was observed in patients belonging to families where the disease was linked to markers on chromosome 5q. Unlike T1D, allele 1 does not appear to confer susceptibility to CD.

  • An emerging phenotype of Xq22 microdeletions in females with severe intellectual disability, hypotonia and behavioral abnormalities
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: Journal of Human Genetics. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1434-5161 .- 1435-232X. ; 59:6, s. 300-306

    • The majority of Xq22 duplications seen in patients with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) include proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1), the gene responsible for PMD, and neighboring genes. Some cases result from larger duplications up to 7 Mb in size. In comparison, the deletions including PLP1 seen in PMD patients are small. In this study, we present the genetic and clinical information for five female patients with deletions involving the Xq22 region, and review the correlation between the genotype and phenotype. Three of the five patients show similar large deletions (>3 Mb) ranging from Xq22.1 to Xq22.3 and all manifest severe intellectual disability, hypotonia and behavioral abnormalities. The most striking similarity among them are the behavioral problems, including poor eye contact and sleep disturbance. We propose that this represents an emerging distinctive microdeletion syndrome encompassing PLP1 in female patients. The possible candidate region responsible for such distinctive features has been narrowed down to the neighboring region for PLP1, including the interleukin 1 receptor accessory protein-like 2 (IL1RAPL2) gene and the clustered brain expressed X-linked (BEX) genes. The gene(s) responsible for severe neurological features in the patients in this study would be located in the regions proximate to PLP1; thus, males with the deletions involving the gene(s) would be lethal, and finally, the sizes of the deletions in PMD patients would be smaller than those of the duplications.

  • Cerebrospinal fluid tau and amyloid beta42 protein in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1.
  • 2008
  • Ingår i: European journal of neurology : the official journal of the European Federation of Neurological Societies. - : Wiley. - 1468-1331. ; 15:9, s. 947-52

    • BACKGROUND: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is associated with brain morphology changes including neurofibrillary degeneration. METHODS: We have examined cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) markers indicative of neuronal degeneration and amyloidogenesis; total tau (T-tau), phosphorylated tau (P-tau) and beta amyloid 1-42 (Abeta42), in 32 patients with DM1. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Associations between CSF markers and CTG repeat expansion size, brain MRI findings, and neuropsychological test results were analysed. As compared with matched controls Abeta42 was significantly decreased (P = 0.001), whilst levels of T-tau were increased (P < 0.001). No difference was found between measures considering P-tau levels. At present the clinical implications of these findings is unclear, because of an overlap between CSF values of DM1 patients and healthy controls, but also regarding modest associations between CSF markers and other measures. However notably, the Tau pathology, as seen in DM1, differs from Alzheimers disease, considering the lack of increased levels of P-tau.

  • Insulin can enhance GLUT4 gene expression in 3T3-F442A cells and this effect is mimicked by vanadate but counteracted by cAMP and high glucose--potential implications for insulin resistance.
  • 2001
  • Ingår i: Biochimica et Biophysica Acta. - 0006-3002 .- 1878-2434. ; 1535:2, s. 174-85

    • It is well-established that high levels of cAMP or glucose can produce insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to characterize the interaction between these agents and insulin with respect to adipose tissue/muscle glucose transporter isoform (glucose transporter 4, GLUT4) gene regulation in cultured 3T3-F442A adipocytes and to further elucidate the GLUT4-related mechanisms in insulin resistance. Insulin (10(4) microU/ml) treatment for 16 h clearly increased GLUT4 mRNA level in cells cultured in medium containing 5.6 mM glucose but not in cells cultured in medium with high glucose (25 mM). 8-Bromo-cAMP (1 or 4 mM) or N(6)-monobutyryl cAMP, a hydrolyzable and a non-hydrolyzable cAMP analog, respectively, markedly decreased the GLUT4 mRNA level irrespective of glucose concentrations. In addition, these cAMP analogs also inhibited the upregulating effect of insulin on GLUT4 mRNA level. Interestingly, the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate (1-50 microM) clearly increased GLUT4 mRNA level in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, cAMP-induced inhibition of the insulin effect was also prevented by vanadate. In parallel to the effects on GLUT4 gene expression, both insulin, vanadate and cAMP produced similar changes in cellular GLUT4 protein content and cAMP impaired the effect of insulin to stimulate (14)C-deoxyglucose uptake. In contrast, insulin, vanadate or cAMP did not alter insulin receptor (IR) mRNA or the cellular content of IR protein. In conclusion: (1) Both insulin and vanadate elicit a stimulating effect on GLUT4 gene expression in 3T3-F442A cells, but a prerequisite is that the surrounding glucose concentration is low. (2) Cyclic AMP impairs the insulin effect on GLUT4 gene expression, but this is prevented by vanadate, probably by enhancing the tyrosine phosphorylation of signalling peptides and/or transcription factors. (3) IR gene and protein expression is not altered by insulin, vanadate or cAMP in this cell type. (4) The changes in GLUT4 gene expression produced by cAMP or vanadate are accompanied by similar alterations in GLUT4 protein expression and glucose uptake, suggesting a role of GLUT4 gene expression for the long-term regulation of cellular insulin action on glucose transport.
