| pubmed-article:16437124 | pubmed:abstractText | The observation that Toll-like receptor (TLR)2-deficient mice are highly susceptible to mycobacteria suggests that mutations altering TLR2 expression may impair host response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We evaluated the association between guanine-thymine (GT) repeat polymorphism in intron II of the TLR2 gene and the presence of tuberculosis (TB) in Koreans. The numbers of GT repeats were determined by PCR and gene scans for 176 TB patients and 196 controls. The recombinant TLR2 promoter/exonI/exonII/intronII/luciferase constructs including three representative repeats: (GT)13, (GT)20, and (GT)24 were transfected into K562 cells, and luciferase activities were estimated and compared. The expression of TLR2 on CD14+ peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy volunteers were measured with flow cytometry. Genotypes with shorter GT repeats were more common among TB patients (49.4 vs 37.7%, P=0.02). This observation was confirmed among 82 other TB patients as a validation cohort. Shorter GT repeats were associated with weaker promoter activities and lower TLR2 expression on CD14+ PBMCs. In conclusion, the development of TB disease in Koreans was associated with shorter GT repeats in intron II of the TLR2 gene. This association is correlated with lower expression of TLR2 through weaker promoter activity for genes with shorter GT repeats. | lld:pubmed |
